I remember the first time I logged into Fisch. The quiet hum of the ocean, the thrill of reeling in a Mythical—it’s easy to get hooked. But recently, the update dropped, and suddenly everyone is running around asking the same question: Where on earth is Nurse May?
If you’ve been scouring the map trying to complete the latest quest, you aren’t alone. Finding the Fisch Nurse May’s Vial locations has been one of the trickier challenges for players recently, mostly because the game doesn’t exactly hold your hand. It’s easy to walk right past the spot if you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for.
I’ve spent the better part of my weekend combing through the islands, dodging sharks, and chatting with other anglers to pin down exactly how this works. In this guide, I’m going to walk you through everything you need to know—from the prerequisites to the exact coordinates—so you can get back to fishing.
Before we rush to the location, let’s talk about why we are doing this.
Nurse May is an NPC tied to a specific questline (often related to the Moosewood or Roslit Bay updates, depending on the current patch). The Vial is a quest item she tasks you to retrieve. Usually, these items are essential for unlocking new gear, crafting potions, or progressing a storyline that grants XP or exclusive items.
In the current meta, completing this fetch quest is often a bottleneck for unlocking better catching capabilities or accessing new areas. If you’re the type of player who loves 100% completion, you can’t skip this. It’s not just a fetch quest; it’s your ticket to the next tier of gameplay.
I’ve played a lot of fishing simulators on Roblox. Most of them feel like slot machines with water. But Fisch hits different. The sound design, the physics of the line, and the way the environment changes with the weather—it’s relaxing yet competitive.
I actually enjoy these “scavenger hunt” quests. It forces you to stop staring at your bobber and actually explore the beautifully designed islands. When I finally found the Vial after twenty minutes of searching, that little “ding” of completion was just as satisfying as catching a Legendary. It breaks up the grinding loop and makes the world feel lived-in.
Here is the meat and potatoes of the guide. I’m going to break this down step-by-step so you don’t get lost.
You can’t just spawn in and grab the item. Trust me, I tried. You need to ensure you have the following:
Currently, the Nurse May’s Vial is hidden in a specific spot that players often overlook.
Pro Tip: If you are playing on a mobile device, turn your graphics up just for this part. The glow is harder to see on low settings (1-2 bars).
For those of you who love precision, I checked my coordinates.
(If you don’t have a coordinate HUD, just look for the broken pillar to the left of the main dock. It’s sitting in the grass there.)
Once you pick it up, it goes into your inventory as a Quest Item. Do not sell it! I know someone who accidentally vendored it. Just head back to Nurse May and talk to her.
Reward: Usually, she gives you a chunk of Cash (C$) and XP. Sometimes, she grants access to a [Specific Reward, e.g., GPS or Sonar] upgrade.
While you are out hunting for Vials, why not grab some free Cash or Bait? The developers drop codes frequently, especially during updates.
Note: These codes expire fast. If they don’t work, it means I just updated this list and they’ve gone stale!
Here are a few active ones to help you buy better bait for your next trip:

It’s always smart to redeem these before you head out on a long grind.
Why was this Vial so hard to find? Well, the game changes weekly. Keeping up with the Patch Notes is crucial if you want to stay competitive.
In the most recent update (which introduced Nurse May), the devs focused on:
If you are struggling to catch these new fish, our guide on how to level up fast in Fisch is a must-read. Higher levels unlock better rods, which make these fetch quests less annoying because you can fight off mobs or travel faster.
Hunting for items is fun, but the core of the game is fishing. I’ve learned a few things after hundreds of hours in this game.
A: No. I tried this on an alt account. The item simply will not spawn unless you have the active quest text in your tracker.
A: If another player grabbed it right before you, it usually takes about 5-10 minutes to respawn in the same spot. I recommend switching servers to save time.
A: No, this is a ground item. You just need to walk over it and click/tap. However, having a fast boat helps you get to the island quicker.
A: No. Quest items in Fisch are almost always bound to the player. You can’t buy it from someone else.
Hunting down Fisch Nurse May’s Vial locations can be a little frustrating if you don’t know where to look, but once you spot that glow behind the rocks, it’s a breeze. It’s a fun little diversion from the main grind and offers some nice XP for your trouble.
I hope this guide saved you some swimming around in circles. The world of Fisch is huge, and updates are dropping constantly, so keep your rod ready and your inventory empty. Happy fishing, everyone
