In order to catch all the legendary fish in Red Dead Redemption 2, first you’ll need the appropriate bait. Thankfully, these aren’t too hard to get.

There’s a special bait shop located in Lagras that will sell you all the bait and lures you need. Head over and talk to the shopkeeper, and look out for the special lures. You’ll want to purchase the Special Lake Lure, Special River Lure, and Special Swamp Lure. These are pretty cheap, and if your honor level is high enough, you can get them for below $20.

Whenever you’re out looking for the legendary fish, make sure to equip the correct lure. For instance, catching the legendary bluegill at the Flat Iron Lake will require you to use the Special Lake Lure. These legendary fish are pretty tough, and it’ll likely take you quite a while to reel them in all the way, so be ready for a struggle.

And that’s all you need to know about how to catch the legendary fish in Red Dead Redemption 2. And after you’ve caught all the fish, why not try your hand at hunting down all the legendary animals as well? Be sure to check our Red Dead Redemption 2 guide wiki for more information on the game.
