DREDGE

There are only two sellable dredge treasure that are needed for a sidequest: The one requested by the distraught father in Little Marrow, and the dog tags. Every other treasure that you can sell to the trader has no purpose other than selling, even if the flavor text suggests otherwise.

You should look around every island carefully. There is a lot of hidden optional stuff in this game and most of it you would only find by simply stumbling upon it while exploring. These will often give unique rewards you can't get anywhere else, including permanent passive upgrades, or really good unique equipment that bypasses the need for research. A lot of these don't need a dock or anything, just approach stuff that looks interesting and see if you get an interaction prompt.

The game does not explain many of its mechanics. For example, the foghorn and light switch have hidden functionality that is never hinted at and is not obvious. So you should experiment with your tools in different situations.

All the stats you get from installing equipment stacks, even if doesn't seem like it would make sense. For example even if you have some big ultimate rod, you can throw on the basic 1x2 starting rod in a free spot to improve your fishing speed. So consider storing old gear instead of selling/destroying it unless you have something better of that size.

There is a hidden second ending. But you can get both endings on the same save file since the game does not save after you beat it.

When you use the telescope out at sea, make sure to turn your view with the right analog stick instead of the left. Using the left analog stick will physically turn your ship which takes up ingame time, like sailing around. Using the right analog stick is just like looking around and doesn't take ingame time.
