Skyrim has dozens of activities that won't let you get bored, including fishing. By completing quests related to fishing, players will be able to obtain various rewards and fish needed for cooking and brewing potions. However, some species can be quite hard to catch in Skyrim, and one of them is Glassfish.

As the name suggests, this fish is almost transparent. For this reason, it can be useful to you for potions of Illusion or Invisibility. In addition, several fishing quests require obtaining this fish.

Not all fish in Skyrim are easy to find; here are the best spots to check out for those hoping to reel in a Pogfish.

How To Find Glassfish

Although catching fish in Skyrim is not the most difficult activity, you can spend a lot of time finding the right place where the fish you want are found. The same goes for Glassfish, which players can catch with a fishing rod in good weather in some lakes across Skyrim:

  1. Wilderness near the northern gate of Riften.
  2. Near Mistveil Keep Castle.
  3. Wilderness near Geirmund's Hall.
  4. Near Faldar's Tooth Fort.
  5. Near Heartwood Mill.
  6. Wilderness near South Brittleshin Pass.
  7. On Fisherman's Island in the southern part of Lake Ilinalta.
  8. Near Fisherman's Camp on the northwestern edge of Lake Ilinalta.
  9. Near Half-Moon Mill.

It's also worth noting that players can catch this fish with their hands. However, to do this, you will have to leave Skyrim and move to Blackreach. To do this, it is recommend that the Dragonborn use one of the Great Lifts, as they can immediately lead you to the fish. They can be found in the following locations:

  1. Near Great Lift at Raldbthar
  2. At the waterfall near Sinderion's Field Laboratory. (Easily accessible from Great Lift at Alftand)

You should also explore Blackreach thoroughly in areas where there is Crimson Nirnroot. Near almost every Nirnroot you can catch one or more Glassfish in Skyrim.
