The enchanting world of Webfishing hides secrets beyond its standard fishing spots, including a glitch-accessible realm known as the Void. This shadowy zone offers players the chance to reel in the ultra-rare CREATURE, also called the Void Fish, added in the pivotal 1.09 update. With a mere 2.5% hook rate, landing this miscellaneous-category prize demands patience, precise positioning, and glitch mastery. This guide breaks down everything from entry methods to optimal fishing strategies, ensuring you conquer this challenge solo or with friends.
Why Chase the Void Fish?
Deep within Webfishing’s multiplayer fishing paradise lies the Void—a glitchy, out-of-bounds expanse resembling a twisted freshwater zone. Unlike common saltwater catches, the Void teems with unique opportunities, headlined by the CREATURE. This enigmatic fish boasts a glitchy, morphing appearance that sets it apart, making it a must-have for journal completionists. Spot the telltale chat message “You feel a light breeze…” to confirm you’re in the prime fishing pocket. Success here not only fills your aquarium but elevates your camp tier progression and unlocks bragging rights in the community.
Beyond aesthetics, the Void Fish ties into Webfishing’s exploratory spirit. Data miners like LoddZee peg its rarity at 2.5%, translating to roughly one catch every 40 casts on average. Factors like positioning and persistence amplify your odds, turning a grind into a thrilling hunt.
Preparation Essentials Before Entering the Void
Stock up before diving into glitches. Key items include:
- Boxing Glove: Purchased for 100 dollars from the opossum NPC in the hub’s right cabin. Ideal for friend-assisted ejections.
- Private Island Flags: Unlock via camp tier upgrades by chatting with the frog NPC. Red flags are crucial for solo access.
- Camp Tier 1+: Speak to the frog to boost your level, enabling flag placement.
Teleport to the central hub—the spawn point with two cabins: one for shopping/NPCs and one with an aquarium. Both serve as gateways to the Void.
Solo Glitch: Flag Method to Breach the Bounds
Perfect for lone wolves, this technique exploits prop placement to slip outside the map. Follow these steps meticulously:
- Enter the NPC cabin (right of Pawprint Point sign).
- Position your character with back to the door, camera angled downward.
- Slide right toward the opossum, targeting the trio of boxes in the corner.
- Hug the wall near the smallest box—clip your head slightly without flush contact.
- Activate the prop menu (V key or tent icon top-right).
- Select any island entrance flag (tiny works best).
- Place it in the black out-of-bounds area, just beyond the wall—not too far, or it fails.
- Approach the flag; a “Travel” bubble appears if valid.
- Interact to warp to your private island.
- On the island, re-interact with the flag to teleport into the Void threshold.
- Edge toward the black expanse for the transition animation into full Void territory.
Troubleshooting: Invalid placement? Reposition closer or angle left/right. No travel option? Flag’s too inside—retry with finer adjustments.
Team-Assisted Entry: Boxing Glove Punch
With a buddy, speed things up using brute force. Buy the boxing glove from the opossum, then:
- Enter either cabin.
- Have your friend punch you toward the black wall edges using the glove.
- Clip out-of-bounds to trigger Void access directly.
This skips flag finesse but requires coordination. Post-ejection, navigate the Void similarly.
Navigating and Fishing in the Void
Upon arrival, you’re in a limbo-like space. Roam until you drop off a “cliff” into deeper Void—don’t cast prematurely. The breeze message signals the hot zone for CREATURE bites. Other pulls are saltwater varieties, but persistence pays off.
| Fish Type | Category | Catch Rate | Zone Indicator |
|---|---|---|---|
| CREATURE (Void Fish) | Miscellaneous | 2.5% | “You feel a light breeze…” |
| Standard Void Catches | Saltwater | Common | No message |
Cast repeatedly; expect 30-50 tries. Emote in chat for luck, and data confirms variability. If ejected, re-enter via hub.
Common Pitfalls and Fixes
Glitches can falter:
- Flag Rejection: Angle precisely; jump/walk to align.
- No Breeze Message: Explore Void edges; fall off ledges.
- Kicked Out: Re-glitch immediately; avoid building proximity.
- Solo Fails: Upgrade camp first via frog NPC.
Version 1.09 stabilized access, but patches may tweak mechanics—check Steam updates.
Advanced Void Exploration and Perks
Beyond fishing, the Void showcases Webfishing’s glitch artistry. Use similar flag tricks for other secret zones, like private warps. Completing the CREATURE entry advances your journal, potentially unlocking cosmetics or tiers. Community shares on Discord/YouTube refine techniques, with creators like LoddZee providing stats.
Pro Tip: Record sessions—glitch visuals are meme gold. Multiplayer hubs amplify fun, trading tips mid-hunt.
