In Far Cry Cry New Dawn you can catch six types of fish: Bull Trout, Chinook Salmon, Largemouth Bass, Paddlefish Sturgeon, Rainbow Trout, and Smallmouth Bass. There is also a Demon Fish (it is a predator), which you can't catch but only kill.
Catching any kind of fish (you only need to catch the fish once with any rarity level) unlocks the You're a Catch achievement / trophy.
How to catch a fish?
To do this, you must first have Fishing Rod perk. This adds a fishing rod to your weapon wheel. Outdoor Enthusiast perk is also very useful because it makes fishing easier.
Go to one of the fish habitat locations, choose a fishing rod from a weapon wheel and cast it into the water.
Then try to lure the fish pressing the [Reel Line] button for a short period of time. Repeat this action until the fish catches the lure then hook it by pressing [Hook Fish] button.
Start to reel it in. If the fish swims sideways, move the rod in the opposite direction.
Demon Fish
Demon fish is a big fish you shouldn't miss. Shoot it from the shore or, for example, from a pontoon. When you kill it, dive and loot its corpse.
