Zelda Breath of the Wild Heart Bass locations

Hearty Bass uses in Zelda BOTW
Hearty Bass in the Legend of the Zelda BOTW is used to restore the Hearts that Link loses during fights. But you also use it for cooking and upgrading the Zora set.
As Link eats Hearty Bass, 2 Hearts are restored per fish, which is incredibly beneficial. The number of Hearts increased also depends on how the fish is eaten. If eaten raw, it will give 2 Hearts, but if Link cooks it, it will restore more Hearts.
