Located two screens north from [[Madam MeowMeow]]'s house is a fishing pond. The fisherman will charge you 10 [[rupee]]s to fish there. In the pond there are three small fish, and two larger ones. The big one that floats directly beneath where [[Link]] stands is the heaviest in the pond, and carries a [[Piece of Heart]] with it. Catching it almost always requires you to first catch the smaller fish swimming above the rest, rewarding you with 5 [[rupee]]s. After that, cast your line and reel it in atop the water so that it doesn't sink and get taken by another fish, then let it sink down to the fish under the cliff.

There is an area which has four graves here. The bottom-right grave can be pushed upward to reveal a cave. Normally, you would have to use other items, such as the [[Hookshot|Hook Shot]] and [[Bomb]]s to get to this [[Piece of Heart]] (at least that's apparently what the creators intended). However, really all you need to do is a diagonal jump from the area where you walk out of the stairs to the south-east platform, then jump to the area containing the [[Piece of Heart]] just above that. You can exit the same way you got there, or just fall down a hole and re-spawn back at the staircase.
'''Heart Piece #6''': This area is found by either sinking into the quicksand where you fight the [[Desert Lanmola]], or by going one screen east of this area and bombing a wall in the north section. If you sink in the quicksand to get to the cave, use a bomb on the northern wall in that room, which will reveal the section with the Heart Piece.
