Solving Fisch’s Crazy Cat Lady riddle quests might be a chore, but it’s the only way to get the (excellent) Nico’s Yarncaster rod. If you’re keen on filling up the current bestiary fast, the Yarncaster is a must-have rod, as it brings the eponymous cat along with you, who has a chance of catching one of the current bestiary’s fish while you’re fishing too.
Below, we explain all the Crazy Cat Lady riddle solutions in Fisch and what the Nico’s Yarncaster rod does for you.
How to get Nico’s Yarncaster rod in Fisch
The only way to get the Yarncaster rod is to complete two of the Crazy Cat Lady’s riddle quests. She has a third quest with two additional rewards on offer for completing it, but if you want the rod, you only need to complete two of them.
Where to find the Crazy Cat Lady in Fisch
Getting to the Crazy Cat Lady is a bit of a journey in itself. She’s in the Underground Music Cluib (coordinates 2015, -645, 2460), but the only way to reach the club is by venturing through the Depths and the Crystal Cove. And the only way into the Depths involves entering a strange whirlpool, which spawns at random. Our strange whirlpool guide explains more about that, but the short version is that if you’ve never been to the Depths before, you’ve got some work ahead of you before you can find the cat lady.
All Crazy Cat Lady answers in Fisch
The Crazy Cat Lady has three quests for you, all of which take the form of a riddle. Each quest will give you one of several possible riddles, but whichever one you get, the point is to find a specific fish matching the riddle’s description. Bring it back to the cat lady to get your reward and the next quest.
