A new apex predator has arrived in the virtual waters of Fisch. The Mossjaw, a horned crocodilian beast, is the sole Exotic fish introduced in the Lost Jungle update. This ancient creature is one of the game's most challenging catches. Finding it requires navigating a hidden temple and waiting for a special server event.
According to Reuters, the gaming community has been eagerly anticipating this addition. The hunt for the Mossjaw has become a top priority for dedicated anglers worldwide. Its unique design and extreme difficulty make it a prestigious trophy.
The Mossjaw resides in a secluded pool within the Mossjaw Rest area. This zone is locked beneath the new Lost Jungle island. Players must first find the entrance to the underground Forgotten Temple to begin their journey.
The temple itself is a five-room puzzle maze. Each room contains a unique challenge that rewards a Rune. Collecting all five Runes is mandatory. You then place them on the correct pedestals at the Temple Gates to unlock the final chamber.
Once the gates are open, you will find the massive spawning pool. The Mossjaw only appears during the "Lost Jungle - Elder Mossjaw Hunt" server event. A notification will appear on-screen when the hunt begins. You can then use the Temple Eye to teleport directly to the fishing spot.
Catching the Mossjaw requires preparation and the right gear. Investing in a top-tier fishing rod is the first critical step. The new Sanguine Spire Rod or the reliable Seraphic Rod are excellent choices for this difficult encounter.
Understanding the creature's preferences dramatically increases your odds. The Mossjaw is exclusively attracted to Glowworm bait. It also only bites during the in-game night, so patience is key. It has no specific weather or season requirements.
The Mossjaw applies a severe -95% progress speed debuff to your fishing rod. Enchanting your rod with Steady Immortal or Mystical can counter this effect. Pairing it with Overclocked provides an additional crucial speed bonus.
There is also a rarer, more powerful variant called the Elder Mossjaw. This Secret-rarity creature has a devastating -200 resilience stat. Using Aurora totems or seeking luck bonuses from the Merlin NPC can help, but the catch is never guaranteed.
