What you need to know
- Destiny 2's new season, Season of the Deep, adds a fishing minigame that allows players to catch fish and add them to an aquarium to earn rewards.
- Players have expressed frustration about an issue where nearby Public Events in the world cause the fishing zones to completely disappear for several minutes, preventing them from fishing and wiping out their Focused Fishing buff.
- Focused Fishing increases your chances of getting rare fish (and better rewards), but it only builds up when you or other nearby players catch rare fish to begin with. Because of this, it takes a long time to max out.
- Some players speculate that Bungie intentionally made Public Events despawn the fishing zones so that players wouldn't be permanently fishing with a full Focused Fishing meter.
