Achievement Master Angler
Price 5000g

The Eye Patch is the Hat Mouse's reward for the Master Angler achievement, which means hooking every fish the valley has to offer. That makes it one of the most expensive pieces of headwear on the shelf and one of the slowest to unlock, because the list waits on seasons, weather, the Night Market submarine, the Witch's Swamp and the legendary fish that each bite once. The patch also does something no other achievement hat does: worn into the Pirate Cove on Ginger Island, it persuades the bartender to pour a free Mead every night.


Location


The mouse trades hats from the ruined house below Cindersap Forest, and the patch joins its stock as soon as the fishing collection is complete.

Finishing that collection is a campaign. Common river and ocean fish fall quickly with a decent rod, but the long tail is awkward: Stonefish and Ice Pip live in water pools deep in the Mines, Scorpion Carp needs the desert pond and a little practice, Void Salmon comes from the Witch's Swamp, Slimejack from the Mutant Bug Lair under the sewers, and Spook Fish and Midnight Squid only bite from the submarine during the Night Market. The legendary fish test tackle and patience hardest of all, and Willy posts a Stardrop to the farmer who finishes the collection.

The free Mead needs the island resort built with Golden Walnuts, since the cove only exists once the pirates have somewhere to come ashore. They hold their party after dark on alternate days when the sky is clear, and the entrance hides behind the planks on the east side of the southern beach. The bartender serves once a night, so a nightly visit while the pirates are in port turns the patch into a steady drinks allowance.

Effect


It sits as a single dark patch over one eye on a thin strap, so the hair and the face stay mostly visible. That restraint is why it works with almost any outfit, and it pairs with the Deluxe Pirate Hat or a tricorne for a full costume. In the cove it counts as pirate dress in its own right, so the patch alone is enough to get served.

Notes


The same rod work feeds other goals along the way, since fish dishes and shipped catches both come out of the collection, so the patch often lands on the counter beside hats earned for cooking and shipping.

A lost patch can be bought again from the mouse once the achievement is earned.
