Telltale Games

Hey everyone, I'm starting to think my game has a glitch...

I'm trying to acquire the Pyrite Parrots for shrinking the sponge, so I make them alight on the sign via digging, and then I want to use the net on the sign to catch them. But no matter where I try this, Guybrush always approaches the sign and makes the Pyrites scatter. I have tried it from several locations where I could still access the sign via point/click (you know how the location changes as you walk?) but no matter which way I click, the Pyrites scatter off. According to several walkthroughs I have checked on this, this is exactly what I should do, but I am getting no result. This is driving me insane, seriously, as I seem to be pretty darn close to the ending. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Use the net on the sign from further back.

Are you using the Net on the pyrite parrots or the sign? Usee it on the parrots.

Get out of the boat, walk a bit right and find a spot where you can see the sign, even if slightly. Then use your fishnet from distance.

Try this :
When the sign is at the right side of your screen (and you are almost too close) walk " down" and the view will change. This will allow you to use the net without the parrots flying off.

You need to use fishnet on parrots, NOT on the sign!
