Cod

Basic Fishing area

Cod is a slow resource with a single outlet, so it pays to farm it smartly through the barge rather than automatically through the biggest boat.

What it's for

As common as they are delicious, cod are recognized by their greenish-brown coloring and light undersides.

Cod is a more expensive basic fish from the Fishing area with a base price of 35 000 dollars, and in the game it is described as a common but tasty fish with a greenish coloring. On the farm it has a single use, it is the input resource for Fine fillet in The Mermaid Bay. Production takes considerably longer than with the cheaper fish, so it is meant more as a longer term investment into your storage. You cannot buy it in the shop, the only way is catching it in boats.

How to get it

The Motorboat needs 12 h 28 min to 13 h 28 min for cod and the Norfolk punt 15 h 46 min to 21 h 16 min depending on level, so both boats are noticeably slower here than with herring. What is interesting is that the Motor barge still has the same time of 8 h 59 min and at the highest level gives 75 units in just under 9 hours, which works out better per hour than a fully upgraded Norfolk punt with 161 units in 21 h 16 min.

What to do with it

I send cod exclusively to The Mermaid Bay for Fine fillet. It can be sent to the Dockyard too, but without any stated end product.

Tip from a veteran player If you are working out where to invest first, it pays to take the Motor barge to the highest level before the Norfolk punt, precisely because of cod and similarly slow fish.

Most common mistake Players often move all their production to the biggest boat automatically, even though the long cycle means cod piles up more slowly there than a well used barge could manage.
