The Big ‘Un Walkthrough
A man has been trying to reel in the big ‘un for years. It seems a special kind of bait is required for this special catch.
Obtain some shrimp
Three shrimp can be purchased from the Cloudy-Eyed Fisherwoman in Clearbrook. You’ll find her south of the western house along the water.

The standard price for this shrimp is 300 leaves each. Alternatively, you can try haggling to reduce the price to 150 leaves each.
Give the shrimp to the fisherman
Once you’ve acquired some shrimp, return to the fisherman in Clearbrook Traverse to deliver it, triggering a boss fight!
