Tadpole

The Tadpole is a 2-star rarity fish species that can be caught at Fishing Level 4 in Heartopia. This species inhabits Onsen Mountain Lake, making it a lake catch. It is available all year round.

To catch Tadpole, players should fish during any time of day in Rainy or Rainbow weather. Watch for a small shadow in the water when this fish approaches your line. Requiring Fishing Level 4, this species represents a solid mid-game catch that rewards players who have progressed through the early hobby tiers. Rainbow weather windows are rare and highly valuable, so prioritize this catch when the conditions align.

The Tadpole sells for 100G at base (1-star) quality when sold to Albert Jr., the roaming gold merchant. While not the highest-value catch, this species contributes to the Fish Observation collection and may be requested in daily quests. Consistent catches of common species like this one build fishing experience efficiently and help level up the hobby toward more valuable targets.
