Where to find Tadpoles in New World
To find Tadpoles in New World, you will need to fish in some freshwater like a river or pond. Here are the requirements you’ll need to consider to catch a Tadpole:
- Fishing Area: Level 1+
- Character Level: 20+
- Water Type: Fresh Water
- Bait: Woodlouse Bait
- Fishing Pole: Treated Wood Fishing Pole
- Cast: Deep
The fishing area, character level, bait, and fishing pole listed above are what I used to find a Tadpole. That does not mean you can’t find a Tadpole at other locations, character levels, or using different items. One thing that is probably true is that you can only find Tadpoles in Fresh Water using an appropriate Fresh Water Bait like Woodlouse.
In my example, my Fishing Trade Skill was only level 6, and I was fishing at the small river next to Windsward. I was using a Treated Wood Fishing Pole, and my character level was 21. Tadpoles are a Tier 3 Uncommon item, which means they are rather rare. It may take you a while to find one since luck plays a big factor.
