Entity facts retain the guide’s Patch 1.0.10 snapshot (2026-08-28); the newly written notes are not a current-build playtest. Fixed values are raw bases, not guaranteed sale offers. Patch 1.1.3 adds bait display after a first kill in Fishipedia; use your current game to check a returning catch.
Use the regular lure despite the value
Superdwarf Fish is listed with Scientific Lure on the Fishing Rod at Volcano Island. Its higher ordinary base does not change the recorded setup to Scientific Boss Lure.
The boss lure is associated with Goblin Shark, a separate optional encounter. Keep the two entries distinct when shopping for a missing creature.
State the comparison precisely
The recorded 1,700-coin base is the largest of the five documented ordinary Scientific species. Anglerfish and Stonefish are each 1,500, a 200-coin difference.
This does not make Superdwarf Fish the highest-valued creature overall: boss encounters are a separate comparison, and catch odds are not supplied. Use the number for a raw-value estimate rather than a guaranteed farming target.
