With all that in mind, we’ve been working across two Animal Crossing islands to bring you all the fish currently available across the north and south hemispheres. It’s worth noting that certain fish are only available in certain locations, at certain times during specific months, so you’ll need to check all patches of water. Here are the specific locales we’ve discovered so far:
- River
- River (Mouth)
- River (Clifftop)
- Pond
- Pier
- Sea
If you’re new to the series and are wondering how to fish in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, what you need to do is get a fishing rod, and then aim to drop your hook ahead of where the fish is facing. Then wait until the fish spots it. They will nose the hook, but wait until it pulls the float under the water with a satisfying plop. Then press A immediately to reel it in.
