Eeling Your Way Out of a Sticky Situation: A Guide to Catching Eels in Assassin's Creed Valhalla
So you've crash-landed in England as a Viking with a penchant for both pillaging and perplexing side quests. One minute you're sacking a monastery, the next you've stumbled upon a man desperately in need of an eel for his "secret sauce." Don't worry, fellow raider, this guide will have you catching eels like a pro (or at least like a Viking who googled it real quick).
The Quest for the Slithery Squad: Unlocking the Eely Depths
First things first, forget fancy fishing rods. This ain't your grandpappy's eel hunt. In Valhalla, you've got two main options, both equally Viking-approved:
Tip: Take mental snapshots of important details.![]()
- The Brute Force Approach (Bow and Arrow): Channel your inner William Tell and unleash your inner Hawkeye. Spot those slippery suckers in the water with Odin's Sight (it's like a magical cheat code for spotting fish) and let loose an arrow. Just remember, these eels are more nimble than your average raiding party, so accuracy is key.
Pro tip: If you miss, don't worry! Eels aren't exactly known for their marathon swimming. You should be able to scare them up again for round two.
- The Patient Predator (Fishing): Now, if lining up a perfect shot isn't your style, there's always the classic art of the fish. But wait! You can't just cast a line anywhere. You'll need to build the Fishing Hut in Ravensthorpe to unlock this aquatic skill. Once you're prepped, head to the river near your eel-obsessed friend and cast away! Just be prepared for a bit of a wait – sometimes patience is a Viking's greatest weapon (besides their handy axes, of course).

How To Get Eel Ac Valhalla |
Eel There Yet? Recognising Your Catch
Okay, so you've taken aim or baited a hook. Now what? How do you know you've snagged yourself a genuine eel and not some other unfortunate river resident? Well, my friend, eels are nature's underwater contortionists. Keep an eye out for long, slender fish with a snake-like body. If it looks like it could give a gymnast a run for their money, you've probably got your eel.

The Grand Finale: Delivering the Slimy Prize
Once you've secured your eel (or eels, depending on how ambitious you're feeling), hightail it back to the man with the sauce-y dreams. Deposit your wriggling reward in his pot, and watch as his culinary genius transforms your catch into a (hopefully) delicious concoction.
Tip: Don’t skip the small notes — they often matter.![]()
Remember, Viking, there's no shame in a little online help. But with these tips, you'll be catching eels like a true raider in no time!
