Fishing pier

From the red Warp Pipe No. 1 on Overlook Mountain, cross the bridge and head northeast. From the bottom of the slope with spiked log fencing (where Thwomps tried to crush you), head further east until you get to a cliff. Walk a little further north and you'll end up on a slope. Go down that slope and to the small fishing pier at the bottom. Talk to the Koopa and learn how to fish!

Fish up the big Cheep Cheep

One of the fish swimming around in the river will be round and have a much larger shadow size than the others. This is because it's a Folded Cheep Cheep!
Fishing it up will start a battle with four Cheep Cheeps and winning that battle will earn you the Blue Shell Stone.

It will reappear if you miss it

If you fail to catch it the first time you see it, don't despair! If you wait a bit it will come back, just as eager to get caught as the first time.
