Overview[1]
Whale Shark is a mythical catch found around Gentle giant of the open sea. Sells for about 12,000 C$ at base weight.
The Whale Shark is a Mythical fish obtainable during Shark Hunts, specifically around the Buoy above the Desolate Deep entrance. Despite its high rarity and progress speed decrease, it makes for an easy catch, moving slow and steady across the fishing bar. When reeling it in, -70% Progress Speed is applied. When hooked, a will pop above the player's head, and a bell sound is played - as with all Mythical fish.

What does this mean?
Fisch's in-game currency. A fish's value is its documented average sell price in C$ — what it sells for at its average weight. A rod's value is its documented shop cost. Both are in-game facts from the community wiki, not a trading consensus. Values are not comparable across games.
