Dialogue When Caught

"I caught a dorado! ♪ I say "dorado", you say "doraydo."♪"

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  Woo-hoo! So shiny! This massive fish's name, dorado, means "golden" in Spanish—a fitting title. They are also quite valuable, I understand. I congratulate you on your top-notch angling!

  They are rather large, eh wot? It makes one wonder what all they might feed on... Fowl, perhaps?! One quivers at the very thought!

  Well, it'll be safe behind glass, no doubt. Quite safe, hoo...
