Accept Quest from Captain Oathmyt
Every Saturday, find Captain Oathmyt at 44.22, 61.59 in Hallowfall. She offers one of the Hallowfall Fishing Derby quests and buffs you with Derby Dasher for 60 minutes upon acceptance. This buff cannot be refreshed or reacquired that day on any character in your Warband, so begin fishing immediately after accepting.

A fishing skill of 200–300 is recommended before attempting this achievement. Helpful consumables and gear include the
Aqirite Fisherfriend,

Algari Weaverline,
Enchant Tool - Algari Perception, and the
Whispering Squirmworm bait available at 51.7, 24.6.
Fish Festering Rotpool Catches
In The Ringing Deeps or Hallowfall, target Festering Rotpool nodes to catch
Bloody Perch,
Pale Huskfish,
Cursed Ghoulfish, and

Fish Glimmerpool Catches
Target Glimmerpool nodes to catch
Specular Rainbowfish,
Spiked Sea Raven,
Crystalline Sturgeon,
Bismuth Bitterling, and
Goldengill Trout. These pools appear in Dornogal, The Ringing Deeps, and Hallowfall.
Fish Calm Surface and Specialty Pools
Fish Calm Surface pools for
Quiet River Bass,
Nibbling Minnow, and
Dornish Pike across Dornogal, The Ringing Deeps, and Hallowfall. Also target Stargazer Swarm pools in Dornogal for the
Whispering Stargazer, which requires stacks of 10 Stargazers per 5 minutes of attempts and is recommended at 315–375 fishing skill.
Turn In Quest to Captain Oathmyt
Once all required fish are caught, return to Captain Oathmyt at 44.22, 61.59 in Hallowfall and turn in the quest before your Derby Dasher buff expires. Progress is retained between weekly resets, so if you fall short in one week you can complete the remaining fish the following Saturday while the buff is active.
Tips
The Derby Dasher buff lasts only 60 minutes and cannot be refreshed on the same day across your entire Warband, so use it only when fully prepared.
Some fish required for the quest, such as the
Queen's Lurefish, can be sourced from the Auction House in advance using bait like
Regal Dottyback to speed up that portion of the catch.The
Arathor Hammerfish Lure can be purchased and used before the derby to pre-catch the
Arathor Hammerfish if it appears in your weekly quest, saving time during the buff window.
