Schools of fish in AC4 Black Flag

Large groups of fish that swim throughout the oceans of the Caribbean in Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag.

These small fish pose no threat to Edward, and serve more as set dressing than as any type of gameplay mechanic.

Hunting[edit]

It is currently unknown whether or not Edward will be able to hunt for the small fish that make up a school.

Perhaps a fishing minigame of some sort will surface in the final game, allowing him to sell the captured goods on the fish market?

Bait[edit]

Another possibility is that Edward will catch smaller fish to use as bait when hunting larger fish. For example, Edward could capture a school of fish and then use them to attract a shark.

Again, nothing official has been revealed when it comes to hunting smaller fish.
