===Twilight Princess=== | ===Twilight Princess=== | ||
Fish in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|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 [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] or [[Nintendo Wii|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 [[Greengill]]s, which causes [[Link (Sera's Cat)|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 [[Hena's 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 ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''. | |||
====Greengill==== | |||
{{Main|Greengill}} | |||
The [[Greengill]] is a Fish found exclusively in ''Twilight Princess''. It is a very common fish, being found in most bodies of water. They are very easy to catch, as they hardly fight back against the line. They are small in size and are colored green and yellow with a wavy stripe along its side. The largest known caught is 16 inches. | |||
====Hyrule Bass==== | |||
{{Main|Hyrule Bass}} | |||
The [[Hyrule Bass]], called the "definitive lake fish" by [[Hena]], is a common fish. It has a green top and white bottom with a pattern on the middle. This fish is also found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. The largest known caught is 21 inches. | |||
====Hylian Pike==== | |||
{{Main|Hylian Pike}} | |||
The [[Hylian Pike]] is also known in-game as the 'star of jumping fish'. It has a long body with a white zigzag pattern going down it. The recommended lures are the [[Spinner Lure]] and [[Frog Lure]]. It is very popular amongst the anglers because of its eyes. The largest known fish caught is 27 inches. | |||
====Ordon Catfish==== | |||
{{Main|Ordon Catfish}} | |||
The [[Ordon Catfish]] is green with swirling patterns along its side, and is fairly common. It has what appears to be whiskers on its face, hence the "catfish" designation. It is unpopular with the anglers being called 'too slimy'; if one is caught in the presence of Hena, she tells Link to throw it back. The recommended lure is the [[Popper Lure]]. The largest known caught is 25 inches. | |||
====Reekfish==== | |||
{{Main|Reekfish}} | |||
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]]'s sickness. The fish has a very strong smell which helps Wolf Link to find the Yeti. The Reekfish can only be caught using the [[Coral Earring]] given to Link by [[Prince Ralis]]. The Reekfish is known to have a horrid stench, but is fairly nutritious. | |||
====Hylian Loach==== | |||
{{Main|Hylian Loach}} | |||
The [[Hylian Loach]] is a large, rare fish that appears in ''Ocarina of Time'' and ''Twilight Princess''. The Loach looks like a cross between the catfish and the pike. | |||
====Skullfish==== | |||
{{Main|Skullfish}} | |||
The Skullfish is an illegal fish, so it is not recorded in Link's Fish Journal. They are found around [[Lakebed Temple]] and in secret caves located around [[Hyrule Field]]. They drop a heart when released. It looks like a fish that had been striped of its flesh. | |||
====Bombfish==== | |||
{{Main|Bombfish}} | |||
The Bombfish is a fish that looks like a fish with a bomb in its mouth. It is found inside Lakebed Temple and inside hidden caves around Hyrule Field. The Bombfish can be kept for an under-water bomb. It does not have an entry in the Fish Journal like the Skullfish. | |||
===Phantom Hourglass=== | ===Phantom Hourglass=== | ||
In ''Phantom Hourglass'', Link can fish off his boat provided he obtained the Fishing Rod from the [[Old Wayfarer]]. There are six types of fish for him to catch, and if he manages to catch a Neptoona, he will be rewarded with a [[Heart Container]] from the Old Wayfarer. | |||
====Skippyjack==== | |||
{{Main|Skippyjack}} | |||
The Skippyjack is a common fish easy to catch due to not zig-zaging or jumping too much. It is mostly found on the south-west section of the sea. After Link obtains the [[Big Catch Lure]], the Skippyjack becomes more rare. | |||
====Toona==== | |||
{{Main|Toona}} | |||
The Toona is also a common fish, but not as common as the Skippyjack. The Toona is still as common with the Big Catch Lure. The Old Wayfarer will not be impressed if Link shows him the fish. | |||
====Loovar==== | |||
{{Main|Loovar}} | |||
The Loovar is a large and rare fish. It is rare with the normal lure, but if caught and taken back to the Old Wayfarer, he will reward Link with the Big Catch Lure. After that, the Loovar becomes much more common. | |||
====Stowfish==== | |||
{{Main|Stowfish}} | |||
The Stowfish is a fish that can not be caught in the normal manner. Instead, Link will find it on another large fish with the Loovar being the minimum size. If Link takes a Stowfish back to the Old Wayfarer, he will be rewarded with a [[Ship Part]]. | |||
====Rusty Swordfish==== | |||
{{Main|Rusty Swordfish}} | |||
The Rusty Swordfish is a large fish. It is so large the [[Salvage Arm]] is needed to hold it. This fish can only be caught with the Big Catch Lure. It is rarely found in the shadow of the smaller fish and much more often found in the shadow of the swordfish. | |||
====Neptoona==== | |||
{{Main|Neptoona}} | |||
The Neptoona is a very large fish taking up both screens of the DS. It can only be caught once Link shows the Old Wayfarer a Rusty Swordfish. The fish is a gargantuan, blue swordfish with a serrated bill with various green-blue markings. If Link shows the fish to the Old Wayfarer, he gives Link a Heart Container. The name is a pun on the Greek god Neptune and the fish Toona also found in the game. | |||
===Spirit Tracks=== | ===Spirit Tracks=== | ||
[[File:Spirit-Tracks-Fish-Icon.png|right]]The fish in ''Spirit Tracks'' are an object used for delivery. Link can buy 20 fish for 50 Rupees. The Fish can be taken to the [[Fish Saleswoman]] in [[Castle Town|Hyrule Castle Town]] for a [[Force Gem]]. It is not necessary to bring [[Mega Ice]] to the fish saleswoman in order to buy fish because all he needs is the cargo carriage. But, the Fish Saleswoman will not accept Mega Ice until the [[Fire Temple (Spirit Tracks)|Fire Temple]] is completed. | |||
