“With limited resources available to carry out our initiative, large fish are an invaluable source of food and materials. It is in our best interest to capture them efficiently for the advancement─and cost-effectiveness─of our cause. We call upon our deftest fishers to flaunt their skills, and use the procured bait to catch as many large fish as possible.
— In-game description
EX: Large Aquatic Specimens is a Class A Stellar Mission in Sinus Ardorum. It requires Fisher to complete.
Objectives
- Catch large fish with limited bait and achieve the target score.
- Largest fish caught will be scored.
- Time Limit: 30 min
Score tiers
- Bronze: 7730 (minimum score for completion)
- Silver: 10240
- Gold: 10260
Supplies provided
Fish pool
Strategy
- The target fish for Gold Star is the Goldcheek. It is a !! fish that bites at 33-36 seconds, but only when the message "A blindingly fast form scythes through the water!" appears after using
Ambitious Lure. It should be the only !! fish that bites in this window. - If the message does not appear, the fisher may use
Rest to cancel the cast before another fish bites. Doing so will save the bait (which is limited). 
Big-game Fishing is also useful here, as large-sized Goldcheek can be as small as 54.4 ilms (5,440 points), which is not even enough for mission completion. The maximum size is somewhere around 104 ilms (10,400 points).
