Level up melee to collect more pearls. Level up speed to outswim creatures.

On mobile if you ride an itchyosaur anglers don't agro on you even if you attack them 👍 so everyone knows

My favorite thing with anglers

"Hey I'm going on a pearl run, anyone wanna play bodyguard?"
Are you going to bite ammonites this time?"
"Told you it wasn't on purpose"
"Alright alright I'll go lemme get some scuba and I'll hop on the mosa"

Ten minutes later my tribemate is having to save me from two mosas, an alpha mosa, 50 anglers, 20 eels, 7 plesies all in one area

"STOP BITING THE AMMONITES"
"IT WAS AN ACCIDENT! they hide in the reefs and I hit them if they happen to be by a pearl patch! :'( "

Nope, totally biting them on purpose hehehe

Want infinite fuel?
1. Get yourself a simple underwater tame like a meg
2. Kill anglers for gel
3. Store and keep burning in standing torches or refinery
( STANDING AND WALL TORCHES BURN BLUE)
I collect this with a plesiosaur and can burn 700 metal with just 30. Lucky I collected 5000

As of the latest patch they collect pearls when you bite them.

Be really care when knocking these things out from a distance! Unfortunately they don't look knocked out when they are so continuing to shoot darts at them can be an easy an unfortunate mistake to make.

Warning: taking one of this costs an extreme amount of narcotics, I had found a 170 one and Dododex said I needed around a couple hundred narcotics, I ended up needing 603 bio toxin

They have a LOT of torpor. I tamed a level 10 and it had 1500 torpor

- Main use for this tame is using the Angler as a "lure" for other anglers kill anglers for their gel. The gel is the longest burning fuel in the game at approx. 6 minutes per 1 gel
- secondly use is a light source underwater

P. E. A. R. L. S. That's all you need to know about this amazing creature.

On valgero there all in the abberation cave

29 70 in val they are in the 1st abrent area in waste high water easiest way to get them.

For some reason, they aggro Kairukus (Penguins) when in the wild. Aberrant versions can and will attack you in surface waters as well, learned that they aggro Kairukus by summoning an Aberrant Angler and then a Kairuku in front of it then it aggroed it! (The Kairuku was wild)

Can be used to pick up 60ish pearls instead of 6 or so by hand. Awesome tame now since the update added this.

Pretty sure they get more pearls the higher their melee is tamed a 130 earlier was getting around 170 pearls per clam was 196 after tame I think 🤔

They are usually aggressive, but once hurt, they will become skittish and try swim away from you.

Lampost illuminates 22ft circle, these will illuminate 50 yard area if base is near water

Very long tame took forever but worth it

Angler fish have the bright antenna, so look out for that whe. Trying to locate one.

The tek cave update gave the anglers the ability to gather pears, according to the wiki
