How to Get Fishes

Catch Them in Fishing Areas

Fishing Areas

The most common way to obtain fishes is by catching them in fishing areas. Fishing areas can be located in your map, which is indicated by fish icons.

The fish you catch depends on whether you're fishing in saltwater like an ocean or freshwater like a river. Whenever you catch a new type of fish, it will be recorded in the PescaPedia in the Adventure Log.

Fishing Guide and How to Fish

Get the Fishing Pole During the Winter Village Quests

You will get the Simple Fishing Pole from Watarase during the Main Story Quest, Searching for the Winter God of the Winter Village arc.

This is the earliest that you can go fishing as the Tool is not available in the previous Main Quests.

Needlefish can be found on Bamboo Island. I caught mine at night, but not sure if it's a requirement.
