New Pokemon Snap - Reef (Day) Magikarp
The whirlpool is a type of research spot that you can find near the starting point at Reef (Day). Scanning it reveals that there is a Pokemon inside.

Throwing a Fluffruit at the center causes a Magikarp to jump out of the whirlpool. If you throw the fruit multiple times, the Magikarp will jump higher.

A Blastoise at Reef (Evening)
