Fish are recurring creatures in The Legend of Zelda series. They start out as simple creatures that don't mean much, but have since expanded to become involved in Trading Sequences.
Appearances
A Link to the Past
In A Link to the Past, a fish can be caught in the drained water in the south of Light World. If Link throws the fish back in the pond, it says, "Thank You", and then gives Link a number of Rupees. Furthermore, when Link goes to the Bottle Merchant and gives him the fish, he will give Link a variety of items.
Link's Awakening
Fish in Link's Awakening can be found in the Fishing Pond, a small fishing area located north of Mabe Village. There are no specific types, just small and large ones. Depending on the size of the Fish caught, Link receives rewards from the Fisherman whenever he catches one, including a Piece of Heart.
Fin Piranha
- Main article: Fin Piranha
Additionally, there is a Fish-like enemy in Link's Awakening called Fin Piranhas. They are really weak enemies, but can be a bit unpredictable. They can be found in flooded caves and in Goponga Swamp, swimming back and forth under the water.
Ocarina of Time
In Ocarina of Time, Link can store fish in a Bottle and catch them in the Fishing Pond. It is also required to enter Jabu-Jabu's Belly in order to defeat the third boss, Barinade. Dropping a fish in front of him results in him opening his mouth and sucking in Link. In the Fishing Pond, Link can be rewarded with the Golden Scale if he catches a 13 pound fish.
Majora's Mask
Oracle of Seasons
"You got a Fish as thanks for the ! It's market fresh!"
A Fish is the seventh item of the trading sequence in Oracle of Seasons. Because it is a market fresh Fish,[1][2] it is Ingo's dinner as well as Mittens' favorite food.[3][4] The Fish's sprite is blue, leading one to believe it might have been designed after the real world Bluefish.
The Fish is received from Ingo, a vase collector[5] who lives by his lonesome in a house in Sunken City. As a vase collector, Ingo greatly desires the Goron Vase, a vase that Biggoron has. However, no matter how many times Ingo asks Biggoron for the vase, he won't give it to Ingo, even in exchange for a Fish.[6] If Link has collected the Goron Vase and talks to Ingo, Ingo sees the vase and begs Link to give it to him.[7] After placing it nicely into his collection, Ingo rewards Link with the Fish.[3]
The Fish can be used to acquire the eighth item of the sequence, the Megaphone. The Megaphone can be obtained from Mittens' Owner, a man found in the southern portion of North Horon. Mittens' Owner's cat, Mittens, is at the top of a tree, and refuses to come down.[8] However, if Link brings the Fish to Mittens' Owner, he asks to have it so he can get Mittens down.[4] After thanking Link for the Fish,[9] he uses the Fish to successfully get Mittens to come down. Overwhelmed with joy, Mittens' Owner rewards Link with the Megaphone.[10]
Twilight Princess
Fish in Twilight Princess are found in most ponds and rivers. They are only used in the game for Fishing, which Link can start as soon as he collects the Fishing Rod from Uli. Depending on whether the game is being played on the GameCube or Wii, the controls are fairly different.
Link only has to fish twice for the main quest, with all other fishing opportunities completely optional. The first required use is in Ordon Village, where Link has to use the Fishing Rod to catch two Greengills, which causes Sera's cat to grab the Fish and return it to Sera. The second time is in the quest to climb Snowpeak, as Link has to catch the rare Reekfish to gain the Reekfish Scent, which Link can use to climb the mountain.
After Link acquires the Fishing Rod, the Fish Journal appears in the Collection Screen. This journal records every Fish Link collects, including the largest type of each Fish caught. However, Fish caught in the Fishing Hole do not count; only Fish caught in the overworld count for this journal.
Twilight Princess features one of the widest variety of Fish in any game in the series. They are six types in total, the same amount found in Phantom Hourglass.
Greengill
- Main article: Greengill

Ordon Catfish
- Main article: Ordon Catfish
The Ordon Catfish is green with swirling pattens along its side, and is fairly common. It has what appears to be whiskers on its face, hence the "catfish" designation.

The largest known caught is 25 inches.

The Reekfish is a bright red fish which is only found near the Mother-and-Child Rocks in Zora's Domain. The Reekfish is used by Yeto to help cure Yeta sickness.
