Fishing with a Fishing Rod is your main method for catching almost any fish during your time in Zephyr Town. Cast the line into a body of water and wait for the mini-game to start.

Once the fish bites onto your hook, you must perform a minigame where you press the correct buttons as prompted on the screen in order to reel the fish in.

Reel Power is a fishing technique unlocked from Mayor Felix from his Bazaar shop for 30,000G.

Reel Power is a special prompt that has a chance to appear when fishing. When catching big fish, Reel Power will appear on your screen and you'll have to hit and hold the button prompt to instantly deplete some of the fish's energy, which makes it easier to catch them!

With the correct ores, you can take precious ores and upgrade your Fishing Rod to increase the reach of the Fishing Rod without or with Super Actions.
