Fishing

Fishing is an optional GTA VI side activity in Leonida, with catch-and-release mechanics and depth compared to Red Dead Redemption 2.

Overview

Fishing is a side activity in Grand Theft Auto VI, linked to Mount Kalaga National Park among other spots across Leonida. It is optional but counts toward 100% completion, and it can be done at any time, including after the story ends.

Pre-release information describes fishing from the shore, from docks and from boats, using a range of rods and baits to land both freshwater and saltwater species. The system is said to be comparable in depth to the one in Red Dead Redemption 2.
