Fish tags are designed to help players learn more about the fish they catch and track their progress in discovering unique characteristics.

🐟 What are fish tags?

Every fish in Let’s Fish has at least one tag, which highlights a specific attribute of the species – such as how to catch it, its biological family, or whether it’s tied to a current event.

📂 Types of tags

Fish tags are grouped into three main categories:

  1. Type of fishing
    Indicates how the fish can be caught (e.g., float, spin, or sea rod).
  2. Species / FamilyIdentifies the fish’s subspecies (e.g., catfish, trout, etc.).
  3. EventsHighlights whether the fish is related to a seasonal or themed event (e.g., Halloween Event).

🔓 How to unlock tags

  • Tags are revealed by catching fish.
  • Each time you catch a fish, there’s a chance to discover a new tag.
    • The chance increases with every repeated catch of the same fish.
  • Newly unlocked tags are marked as “New” in the catch summary.

🔍 How to discover tags

  • Tags can be discovered through:
    • Regular fishing
    • Automatic fishing
  • Tags are not revealed when catching fish using fishing nets.

📖 Where to view uncovered tags

  • Fish information window – shows all tags discovered for that individual fish.
  • Tag Lexicon (in player profile) – a master list of all your discovered tags, grouped by category:
    • You’ll see only fish with discovered tags in each category.
    • Fish with undiscovered tags are marked as uncovered, helping you track what’s still missing.
    • All fish tags are listed at the top of the Lexicon, where you can filter by category.
  • After Automatic fishing, any newly revealed tags will be shown in the summary window.
