Secret Activities
Like the other Headhunter DLC's, there are several secret activities available in mad Moxxi and the Wedding Day Massacre:
Thresher Fishing
Throughout Rotgut Distillery, several pieces of bait can be found and picked up. Each piece of bait is colored to match a specific rarity and can be used at one of the fishing poles near the pond. Each piece of bait summons a different unique Thresher. Summoning and defeating a thresher awards loot and the ability to place a "trophy" at a nearby trophy board. If all five trophies are placed within a single visit to Rotgut Distillery access is granted to a special loot chest.
Loot Leprechaun

He can be hit several times before finally disappearing.
