After catching a 10 pounder (past) or 15 pounds (future), you'll be able to find the Sinking Lure. It can be found in a few locations but you'll have to find it again every time you leave. It's invisible, so just walk around the following areas until you find it:

After you get it, catching the really big fish will become a sinch, as they love this thing. It's especially useful for catching the infamous, Hylian Loach (see below). But sadly all the fish you catch with it are deemed "illegal." Unless of course you say pretty please to the Fisherman.

You can keep the fish you catch with the Sinking Lure by talking with the fisherman and choosing "Let's talk about something." After that, go ahead and weigh your fish and he'll let you keep it.

==Hylian Loach==
This eel-like fish is very rare and weighs a lot! The prize for getting it is a measly 50 Rupees, but it sure does feel good to know you did it.
There's a 1 out of 4 chance that it will be in the lake each time you enter. If you're intending to catch it, it's best to enter, look for it, leave and try again if its not there. Once you've seen it, just get the rod, find the Sinking Lure and use the Iron Boots if you have them.
==The Fisherman==
As an adult you'll notice that the Fisherman is wearing a hat and a new rule has been posted that reads "4. Don't cast at anyone." Now, If you can cast at the Fisherman just right you'll snag his hat and pull it off his head, revealing that he's gone bald in the past 7 years. You can now either give it back, or throw it in the water for which he'll yell at you, then fine you 50 rupees. If you threw it in the water it'll be gone forever and every time you come back it'll still be gone. Now don't you feel bad?
