Sign

The Vesperpool - East Bank is a fishing spot nearest to the Vesperpool parking spot in Final Fantasy XV. It has a tackle shop and there is a tour with Gladiolus Amicitia that brings the player to fish here. Vesperpool can be visited from Chapter 7 onwards, but the player can't fish when Aranea Highwind is in the party as a guest.

Quests

The tour at the lake completed.

Sleeping at the camp near to the Vesperpool parking spot with Gladiolus in the party opens a tour with him where the two go to fish for the legendary Liege of the Lake (Noble Arapaima).

The "Liege of the Lake" is one of the toughest fish to catch. It is a hidden fish (not marked on the radar) lurking in the top left corner of the fishing area. It can be caught with the 10,000 Needles Gold Gigantuar lure that can be bought at the tackle shop. It will appear regardless of weather. It will struggle almost all the time when caught. It is advised to use the best fishing line, an upgraded rod and reel, and to have Fishing Level 7 or above. Eating Kupoberry Cheesecake the night the party camps also helps, but it is not available until Altissia if the player hasn't done the Moogle Chocobo Carnival.

The player should continually tilt the analog stick the way the fish swims, and looking at the fish itself rather than the button prompt can be a better method, although this is not so easily seen if it is raining. The player must be patient and only reel in when the fish is not struggling (the controller doesn't vibrate). Tapping the reel in button can work better than holding it, to save line. Because the fish struggles so much, there are only short windows for reeling. If the quest proves to be a struggle, the player can continually tap the pause button and adjust the reel/do not reel and direction when the game is paused to save on the line, and nail the correct direction before the prompts even appear on the screen.

Catching the fish yields the Big Blaze Bahamut lure, which is special as it will return even if the line snaps.
