Animal Crossing: New Horizons offers players an enjoyable virtual escape from peaceful island life, allowing players to engage in a variety of activities, including fishing. Not only is fishing in Animal Crossing Friends a relaxing pastime, it's also a great way to earn  ACNH Bells , decorate your island, and complete your critter encyclopedia. In this comprehensive fishing guide, we'll explore the basics of fishing, basic tools, techniques, and the different types of fish you can catch in game.

getting Started:

To start your fishing adventure, you'll need a few key items: a fishing rod and patience. Fishing rods can be purchased from the Nook's Cranny store for a moderate price. Once obtained, head to any body of water on the island or the surrounding ocean to start casting.

Fishing Technique:

Casting:

Stand near the water's edge, hold down the A button, and release when you want to cast. Aim for a spot where you can see the shadow of a fish or ripples on the water. Accuracy and timing are critical to an actor's success.

patience:

Once your line is in the water, wait patiently for the fish to approach and bite your bait. It's important to stay calm and avoid giving up prematurely. When a fish bites, you'll notice a splash or the float sinking into the water.

Reeling:

After the fish bites, press and hold the A button to start collecting the fish. Be careful not to collect the fish too quickly, or you may scare the fish away. Instead, maintain a steady speed and keep an eye on the fish's movements.

catch:

When the fish starts to struggle or pull on the line, it is a sign that it may escape. To fix this, let the fish fatigue itself by briefly releasing the A button. Once the struggle subsides, continue reeling until you successfully catch the fish.
