Key Points
- After unlocking Island 4, you need to tackle two bosses.
- First, you need to deal with the Tuna boss to lure the Albatross boss in.
- You could shoot each boss down normally, or you could cheese the fight with dynamite.
You will soon reach a point in How to Fish where you need to tackle two bosses. Upon landing on Island 4, you will be warned of a giant bird that’s out to get people. The only way to draw the bird into your weapon’s peripheral is to lure it with another boss.

How to Find the Tuna Fish and Albatross Bosses
Both of these bosses are located in Island 4, which is only accessible after clearing Island 3 and fighting the Pufferfish boss. Once you are on the island, you can purchase upgrades for your boat and weapon. I would recommend getting the sniper rifle with laser or iron sights, but it is completely optional. What I would actually recommend is to stock up on dynamite.
Around 60 – 100 dynamites will do the trick to take care of both bosses at once. In case you are low on cash, purchase the professional lure and use it to catch fish. After the fish catches the line, drag it to the corner of the main store to trap and kill it. Performing trick shots before killing the fish and then cooking it will reward you with more points and a better payout.
How to Cheese the Tuna and Albatross Bosses
After collecting enough dynamite, what I liked to do was place around 30-50 of them inside the main store where the cashier is. Then, place the remaining 30-50 right in the middle of the grassy area. The store will be the trap set for the tuna boss, while the central grassy area will trap the albatross.
Then, purchase the professional boss lure and stand right outside the store. Cast the line to trigger the tuna spawn. Quickly drag the tuna inside the store and head out. The tuna will remain trapped inside, and all you need to do is use your choice of gun to light up the dynamite inside. This will instantly kill the tuna boss.
Collect the tuna carcass and drop it right in the middle of the dynamite in the grass. Head up the stairs of the casino and wait inside for the albatross boss to spawn in. Aim your weapon at the dynamite pile, then shoot at it once the boss swoops in to pick up the tuna. This will obliterate the boss, giving you an easy win.
FAQs
The albatross trophy fell into the water; what do I do?
Take your boat out to the water and get as close as possible to the trophy, then jump in to collect it and quickly hop on the boat to avoid drowning.
The albatross escaped the explosion; what do I do?
You can still shoot the albatross from inside the casino and avoid taking damage this way. If you still want to try the dynamite route, then you need to shoot at the dynamite pile just before the albatross swoops in to pick up the tuna. A sniper rifle will help you with aiming and timing.
Who do I hand over the albatross trophy to?
Inside the main store with the cashier, you will find an NPC with the red tee who warned you about a strange bird attacking people. Hand the head to it to complete the island’s quest and get the coordinates to the final island.
