What matters in play
The Highlands Fishing expansion map adds Scottish-inspired farming, castle restoration, aquaculture and shore fishing.
Exact prices, yields, capacities and cycle rates can change by patch, economy difficulty, map and mods. This page publishes the stable workflow and labels every current-content boundary.
What you need before starting
- 01
Highlands Fishing Expansion installed

Chronological workflow

- Step 3Build fish feed and aquaculture capacity as a separate production loop.
- Step 4Treat castle restoration as an optional construction project.
Decisions that change the result
- Kinlaig systems are not base-game content.
- Only salmon and rainbow trout are first-party verified species for this guide.
- Fish feed is officially described as vegetable oil, wheat and soybeans.
When the workflow is not working
Fishing or aquaculture is absent
Confirm the expansion entitlement, required game version and save map.
Fish production is stopped
Check fish food inputs, facility activation, output storage and boat/transport access.
A guide lists extra species
Reject it unless an additional first-party source confirms them.
