Fishing
Best fishing Pals: choose a party for your actual problem
Use Jelliette when your goal is more fishing items, Gloopie when the capture gauge drains, and Whalaska when you want a stronger start and faster overlap progress. These party skills solve different problems; Jellroy's item effect is for salvage.
Start with Pals you own and the failure you observe. A party built only for item quantity will not necessarily help you keep the bars together long enough to complete a difficult catch.

Match the Pal to the effect
| Pal | Fishing effect | Useful when |
|---|---|---|
| Jelliette | Fishing item quantity +55–95% | You can finish catches and want more items |
| Gloopie | Capture gauge loses progress 12–35% more slowly during separation | Fish movement repeatedly empties your progress |
| Whalaska | Starting gauge and overlap progress +5–14% | You want more progress from successful overlap |
| Whalaska Ignis | Starting gauge and overlap progress +7–17% | You already have the variant and want that support |
| Solmora / Solmora Lux | Makes talented Pals easier to fish up | The caught Pal's talents are your target |
The listed effects apply while in the party. Do not replace that condition with “assigned at base.” Their records say they do not stack: extra copies of the same bonus are not a reason to multiply its percentage across all five slots.
Inspect the skill level before planning condensation
The range is not a random roll each time. Partner-skill level changes the recorded bonus, so inspect the Pal you actually own. Condensation is one way to improve that level; it consumes other Pals rather than Pal Souls.
Current four-star planning starts with 48 uncondensed same-species material Pals across four ranks, plus the Pal you keep. Use the updated rank budget before collecting old-guide quantities. Choose the keeper first and verify the result preview rather than sacrificing your intended fishing Pal by mistake.
Test the party with a limited bait stack
- Identify the bottleneck: failed gauge control, slow successful catches, low item quantity or the desired Pal's talents.
- Put the corresponding support Pal in the party and read its current skill level.
- Keep the rod, bait, region and world settings the same for a short comparison. Change one part of the setup at a time.
- Observe whether catches finish and whether the specific problem improves. Item count after one catch is not a legendary-drop-rate test.
- If the problem persists, check the interaction and equipment recommendation before committing more condensation materials.
Keep fishing and salvage bonuses separate
Jelliette's fishing-item bonus and Jellroy's salvage-item bonus belong to different reward systems. Their paired base Watering effect is another condition again. A sea barrel, ordinary fish shadow and production pond should not all be treated as the same “fishing” keyword.
Compare the two item bonuses and base pairing →World Tree players reported different outcomes even with strong parties. Use a setup as an option to try, not a guarantee that every endgame minigame becomes easy.
