You can find the Anglerfish in exactly the same way as the Loosejaw. Note the Anglerfish takes up a hefty five spaces, so be sure to have plenty of room on board.

You can also find both of these fish during the day or night-time, so again there is no pressure to be risky. However, note that the Repulsion Device willswitch itself off regularly, so go and turn it on each day that you intend to fish or dredge in the center of the area.
