FischFright 3: reach Caustic Hollow by talking to Captain Jack

Seasonal guide · Researched October 17, 2026.

Quick answer

To reach Caustic Hollow, the FischFright 3 area in Fisch, find Captain Jack on the Haunted Ship at Moosewood Dock. Talk to him and select “I want to Travel”.

Requirements and route

Join the correct experience and reach Moosewood Dock while event access is available. You will need your rod to fish afterward; for the trick-or-treating alternative, the relevant item is Candy Bucket.

1. Go to Moosewood Dock and locate the Halloween ship.
2. Approach Captain Jack and start a conversation.
3. Choose “I want to Travel” and wait for the transfer to finish.
4. Confirm that you reached the event area before looking for its activities.

What to do on arrival

Start fishing or try the event houses with Candy Bucket equipped. For trick-or-treating, put the bucket in your hotbar, knock on a door and use the encounter's Treat option. You will not receive a fish every time: this activity does not guarantee bestiary completion.

If you choose fishing, the minigame follows Fisch's general loop: cast, wait for a bite and control the bar until catch progress fills. As an editorial recommendation, make a first catch and check what you obtained before committing to a target list.

Mistakes this route avoids

The initial access obstacle is solved by talking to the character and choosing travel, not by searching for a specific fish. Reaching Caustic Hollow does not mean you completed its quests or earned every reward: access, catching and collection progress are separate steps.

Success check and checklist: Moosewood, correct ship, Captain Jack, travel dialogue and arrival confirmed. Bring a rod or prepare the bucket for your chosen activity. For the announced event window, see the FischFright 3 calendar.
