Nice Day for Fishing

PS5

On the Nice Day for Fishing platinum route, make each trip do something beyond the story: add a species for Thidon, catch fish to sell or bring home building materials. Leaving every collection to the end can mean revisiting the same waters repeatedly. Start with the combat trophies, then use story progress to open regions and the Mayor’s requests. Track high-quality catches separately from equipment that shops do not sell.

A route for the 26 Nice Day for Fishing PS5 trophies. Legendary DLC equipment is not needed for the platinum.

  • Difficulty: The base list does not require a difficulty setting.
  • Before the ending: Parry a boss’s special attack and check the town, collections and quests.
  • Online: Single-player game with no multiplayer trophies.

Lose to a herring and practise the parry

In Honeywood, pick up garlic near Greg’s house and hook a Honeywood Herring. Not Even A Herring wants a loss: let the fish begin attacking and do not finish the catch. In later battles, learn the difference between a normal defence and a precisely timed parry. Against a boss, wait for a special attack that can be parried; winning without that parry will not award Mighty Protector.

  • Check that the loss and boss parry trophies both registered.

Rebuild Honeywood alongside the Mayor’s quests

Bring the Woodcutter back through the story, then check which materials each building needs. Work on Bodger’s shop early, as its upgrades put more rods on sale. Use your other outings to bring back gold and materials for the rest of town. After improving the Mayor’s Manor, speak to him again and check his deliveries; his questline has a separate trophy from Honeywood 2.0.

  • Check both the remaining building upgrades and the Mayor’s requests.

Bring your missing species to Thidon

In each new area, rotate baits and look at the depth of species you have not registered. Return to the Statue of Thidon with new catches to check the available techniques and finish the unlocks for Baelin-sensei. Species and quality are separate objectives: keep a list of the best catches to revisit for “Finally, some good damn fish…”.

  • Confirm that the new spells appear among the techniques you have learned.

Clean up top-quality catches and level 35

Before revisiting an area, check which species you still need at the highest quality. Catch the best variants and sell extras to fund shops and construction. Team17 identifies level 35 as the trigger for The Chosen One, even though experience can take you beyond it. If the trophy is still locked, work on rare catches and deliveries before grinding experience on its own.

  • Check recorded quality as well as the number of species caught.

Finish all four equipment sets

If Well equipped stays locked, look at the four trophies for rods, hats, rings and necklaces to find the missing category. A rod may be sold by an upgraded shop, awarded by the Mayor or hidden in a submerged chest. In Darkstone Depths, for example, a drill spot lies beyond the iron deposit. Recheck the waters with your story tools before heading into the finale.

  • Check the four base-game categories without counting Legendary pack items.

Trophies to watch

Not Even A Herring

C'mon, how can you lose a battle against a herring?!

Hook a herring with garlic, wait for it to attack and let it defeat you.

Finally, some good damn fish…

Only a true fisherman can fish ALL the best fish!

Revisit the best variants of each species; a first catch may register the fish without meeting the quality condition.

Baelin-sensei

After mastering every fishing technique, no fish stands a chance!

Take new catches to the Statue of Thidon and check all learned techniques.

Honeywood 2.0

Now Honeywood could almost rival Alderkeep!

Use the Woodcutter’s building list and finish the last upgrades with gold and materials.

Well equipped

So much gear, even Bodger is jealous!

Identify the missing category among rods, hats, rings and necklaces before sweeping the map again.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to buy the Legendary DLC?

No. Finish the base-game sets, including Mayor rewards and items found with tools from the story.

Why does the level trophy not stop at the actual level cap?

The description does not give a number, but Team17 support confirmed the level 35 trigger. Do not assume you have to grind to a higher cap.

What should I do if a building or quest stops progressing?

First check that the game is up to date. Team17’s PS5 notes document save and quest item fixes, including Bodger’s Hammer.
