Updates:
1/26/99: I started the guide and finished the guide in about 2
hours maybe. I hope it doesn't hurt to get your hands sewn back
on because mine are about to FREAKIN FALL OFF from so much
typing.
1/29: I made some minor updates and corrections. I added a few
things in the Loach section based on what some people have told
me in their emails. Also added Hall of Fame. Please email me
at DaRk_OnE_@hotmail.com because I LIKE comments and
suggestions, even if they are negative so I know what to change.
2/3: A few corrections, updates, 2 or 3 new sections, more
people in the Hall of Fame, look for my new faq at
www.gamefaqs.com, it's a list of all the rumors of the triforce
I have heard about. Read it, it's good but not too many rumors
yet so please e-mail them to me.
2/14: LISTEN UP! I put the hylian loach in its own section now
and it is at the bottom of the guide. Please e-mail me at
DaRk_OnE_@hotmail.com if you have caught the loach so you can go
in my hall of fame. Oh yeah, I also made some corrections and
added more names to the hall of fame. I added 2 more secrets to
the secrets section.

I. The Pond
First, and most important, the fishing pond is in Lake Hylia
in the east corner. It's a little patch of land on your map. If
you don't know this already then you are a stupid ignorant person
and it's no surprise that you need a guide to help you.
The fishing pond is a small area where you pay for a fishing
rod and you can fish, just like in real life. I recommend that
you get a Rumble Pak, because it not only makes it feel cool, but
it can also help you in this.
The cost for fishing is 20 rupees, and you can fish for as
long as you want. I can spend hours at a time here, because this
is sooo fun.
If you catch a big enough fish, you get a prize so don't
forget to keep fishing in there until you know you have the
biggest fish you can catch!

II. The Controls
Press A to talk to the man and B a couple of times to skip
what he says, unless you want to learn the controls the HARD way.
He is confusing sometimes so just read my control list.
CONTROLS:
1. While not fishing
A talks, rolls, opens doors, all the normal stuff
B casts the line unless you are running, then Link just
rolls
Control Stick moves Link. what else?
2. While casting
A + Control stick down makes the lure stop and fall right
where it is
3. While fishing
A reels the line in
A + R reels the line in faster
B makes Link tug at the line
Z moves camera closer and farther from the lure
Control stick makes link wiggle the lure to attract fish
4. You hooked a fish! Now what?
A reels the line in
B doesn't seem to do much here but I dunno.
Z moves camera closer and farther from the lure
Control stick moves the line left and right (see part IV for
tips on this)

III. Fishing
This is a walkthrough of fishing
1. Walk inside the fishing pond at a good time (see part IV for
tips on when to fish) and talk to the man. Pay him 20 rupees and
press B to skip through his talking. Walk over to the pond, find
a good spot (see part IV for tips on how to find a good spot) and
cast the line to the desired location.
2. Wait for a fish to come and bite the hook. The fish bite more
as kid Link or with the sinking lure as adult Link (see part V
about the sinking lure, but not IV this time). You may need to
wiggle the line a little to get the fish interested in biting,
especially as adult Link since the fish are more stubborn then.
3. When the fish bites, there is no real strategy that I know of
as to what buttons to push, but i just press and hold A, R, and
B. Wiggle the control stick a little, hold it to one side, or
for really big fish go see part IV on how to use the fish's
direction to know what to do.
4. When you have pulled the fish up right next to Link, you may
need to use the control stick to spin the fish in a circle
because that brings it even closer to Link and, as always, the
closer the better.
5. Yay, you caught a fish! If Link says, "Wow this one is a real
lunker," that means its a big fish and you should keep it, unless
it weighs less than any previous catches. Once you catch a good
one, take it to the guy at the front and ask him to weigh your
fish. Kid Link will get a piece of heart for a lunker, and adult
Link will get the golden scale, which lets him dive a whole 8
meters! after you get the golden scale you should go to the
Lakeside Laboratory and get the piece of heart for diving to the
bottom of the pool.

IV. Tips
To get lunkers every time, follow these easy rules:
a. FISH AT THE RIGHT TIME: This is the hardest part. You can
play the Sun's Song and go in the door right when the day is
about to change to night, or vice versa, because RIGHT BEFORE THE
SUN RISES OR SETS IS THE BEST TIME TO FISH!!! If you go in at
the right time, sometimes the fish will be really excited or
something and they jump around. It's weird, but that makes it
easy to fish.
b. GET THE SINKING LURE: See part V on secrets to find out where
this is, since it's one of the game's many secrets.
c. STAND IN THE RIGHT SPOT: The place closest to the middle where
you can stand to fish is kinda between the rocks near the stream
in the back of the pond. The place closest to the lunker's spot
(Note: the lunker always starts in the same spot, right next to
the spike from the tree coming out of the water) is on the log
right next to it! Quietly walk from the fisherman slowly into
the water and stand on the log. DON'T SCARE ANY FISH AWAY! Get
on the end of the log right next to that big fish just sitting
there and cast toward it and quickly press A + control stick down
so the lure lands right next to it. From there you can get the
lunker in record time.
d. FISH IN THE RIGHT SPOT: The best places to get the biggest
fish are by the 3 poles sticking out of the water and by the log
sticking out of the water. I think there's another one but I
forget it, maybe I will think of it in a later version. If you
scare the big fish, it will move to another one of these
locations.
e. DON'T WASTE TIME: If you are trying to get 1 fish in that big
school of fish that hangs around in the middle, use the sinking
lure (see part V) and let it sink to the bottom, then a fish will
come up to snag it. If you don't have the sinking lure go to the
letter e to find some useful ways to lure a fish into biting. If
you snag a small fish just don't press anything and let it go to
save time. If that happens, the other fish will swim away and
you throw your controller getting mad at it and start cursing and
stuff just because of that stupid small wimpy fish scaring the
others away. If that happens it might be a good idea to leave
and come back in to reset everything and, hey, it's only 20
rupees.
f. LURING FISH THE HARD WAY: The hard way is without the sinking
lure. If you are stuck without one, here is an almost foolproof
way to get a big fish. WIGGLE THE CONTROL STICK UNTIL HE BITES!
Doing this makes him think that the lure is a small scared fish
and he will try to bite it. Also by doing this you are luring
the fish out of deep water and closer to Link, so he will take
shorter to reel in (see letter f for tips on reeling in).
g. REELING IN: Here is the part where luck comes in. Hold A, R,
and B like I do and wiggle the control stick. If it's a big
fish, you should use the following tactic: when the fish turns
left, HOLD THE CONTROL STICK LEFT and that will suprise him and
make him reel in easier. Also, when the fish turns RIGHT, HOLD
THE CONTROL STICK RIGHT and it will do the same thing to him.
Once he gets so close that you can see Link, reel him in normally
but hold the control stick in 1 direction of your choosing. If
he seems to be slipping at this point, shake him back and forth a
little to loosen him up.
h. PICK YOUR CATCH: Put on the iron boots and the Zora Tunic and
go into the water to find a big, meaty fish! Z-target it and
then get out, cast, and drop the line right in fron of it's face!
This can be a good way to find the Hylian Loach, talked about in
the secrets section, if you can find it.

V. Secrets
There are a few fishing secrets, so listen up:
a. THE SINKING LURE: As adult Link, when you have caught a fish
15 pounds and up, there will be a sinking lure somewhere in the
pond when you enter. The lure appears in random spots somewhere
in or around the pond. The place where I have found it to be
most commonly is IN THE GRASS ALONG THE WALL. Walk along the
wall and you may find it in the grass there or hidden somewhere
by the place where the stream comes in among the rocks. Also, if
you can't find it there, look on the log sticking out of the
water. Sometimes it is by the three rocks near the bottom of the
stream. This lure sinks and is possibly a good way to catch the
mysterious Hylian Loach which is talked about later, in section
d. WARNING: the fisherman will NOT let you claim any prizes if
you use the sinking lure because it's AGAINST THE RULES. If you
talk to the fisherman and say, "Let's talk about something," he
will make the sinking lure legal to use. Note: Kenny Lazzer
(wolfpactwosweet@hotmail.com) e-mailed me and said that he got
the sinking lure WITHOUT catching a 15 pound or bigger fish.
Don't believe everything you read.
b. WEATHER: The BEST time to fish is when it is raining. I have
seen it rain in the fishing pond once and let me tell you, it
does no good to play the song of storms right before you go in
the pond. There is no real way to make it rain, you just have to
be lucky. I have seen the fish actually jumping out of the water
early in the morning though. The four different kinds of weather
are:
1) Day 2) Night 3) Rain 4)Cloudy
c. THE FISHERMAN'S HAT: With either lure you can snag the
fisherman's hat as adult Link and he gets mad at you and tells
you to return it. But of course, being the rebellious young teen
that link is, you can cast his hat out into the water. It is
fun, but he charges you 50 rupees for it! It is very hard to aim
right, but keep trying. I think it's worth the trouble trying to
get the right aiming because it's very funny.
d. BREAKING THE RULES!: You already know that you can break the
rules by using the sinking lure, but here is the ULTIMATE way to
break the rules! You know how the fisherman gets pissed off if
you try to take the rod out of the pond? Well NOW YOU CAN! This
is EXCLUSIVE STUFF here! Put on the hover boots after you get a
rod and run onto the water. Quickly cast the line and hold Z and
press back and A to do a back flip. This may take some practice.
Once that happens, Link can still walk around (but the camera
view is weird) and even go out the door and the fisherman won't
even care! It's hard to find the door with the weird camera view
you get but it's a pretty neat trick. Once you are outside, Link
looks like he's holding an invisible fishing rod! If you do
this, DO NOT CAST when you are out of the pond or else the game
will CRASH and you will have to RESET! You can get your sword
back by pausing and selecting the Master or Biggoron's sword at
the weapon select screen.
e. BIGGEST FISH: The biggest fish I have ever caught was 20
pounds, and Link said, "Oh my gosh! This one is huge! It is too
big to fit on the screen so I can't get an accurate weight, but
it's about 20 pounds," or something like that. I said the
biggest FISH is 20 pounds, because the loach is not really a
fish, and it weighs more than normal fish. However, somebody has
recently e-mailed me and said that he has caught a 21 pound fish.
f. BUT, I WANT IT AGAIN!: Just so you know, Dexter Smith
(MRED1001@aol.com) e-mailed me and told me that it is possible to
throw your lure into that fishing tank where the biggest fish is.
You can't catch it again, but it's just fun to do. Try it some
day if you are bored.

VI. FAQ
Not finished yet, sorry. Will be in a later version. Well,
maybe not because I seem to be getting very few questions e-
mailed to me, and mostly just stuff like "I caught the loach!"

VII. The Hylian Loach
The Hylian Loach is an eel-like thing that likes to hang around
sometimes in the fishing pond. It does not appear very often and
there is no known fool-proof way to make him come out. It is
dark colored and thin like an eel with small flippers. If you
are lucky enough to see him, you can put on the iron boots and
Zora's tunic and take a good look at him. Few people have caught
him, and if you want to see who has caught him you can take a
look at section VIII (my Hall of Fame) right at the bottom of the
guide. As far as I know, the appearance of the loach is
completely random, and you have to be lucky to see it. I have
not caught the loach yet, but I have seen it many times and I
think that the best times to go inside the fishing pond door to
find it is just before the wolf howls or the rooster crows. My
friend just caught the loach 2 days ago (grr) and now I am
determined to catch it myself.
The loach usually weighs around 35 pounds as adult Link and
around 16 pounds as kid Link. If you catch it, the fisherman guy
gives you a purple rupee (worth 50 rupees, oh wow). Generally,
it is probably a little bit easier to catch it using the sinking
lure (section V-a), but that doesn't mean it is impossible to
catch the loach with just the normal lure. I am not sure if
there is any special time of day that makes more likely to come
out. Despite it's size, many people have told me that the loach
is not very hard to reel in. If you catch it, the fisherman will
not keep it in the tank because the loach is an endangered
species.
IMPORTANT INFO: Every few minutes, the loach will come up for
air. When it reaches the top of the water, it makes some sort of
"thap" sound. This is the ONLY time that you will be able to z-
target the loach. More importantly, this is also the ONLY time
that the loach will actually try to bite the lure, even if it is
the sinking lure. He only does this for a few seconds though, so
don't waste time by trying to z-target him.
Here is exactly what is said when you catch the loach:
Link: Gosh, that's a strange fish you have there! On
top of that is weighs xx pounds!
Fisherman: Well well. Wow! What a rare fish! This is the
Hyrule Loach! For this fish, size
doesn't matter, I'll give you this prize
(purple rupee)! Recently, the number of these
fish has decreased tremendously, so I'm going
to release this one.
Below is a list of all the loach-catching strategies that I
know of:
1. Whenever I have seen the loach, it has always seemed to
happen the same way. I go in the
fishing pond just before the rooster crows or the wolf
howls, then I go straight up to the
fisherman and buy a rod. Then I run into the pond, put on
my iron boots, and look for the
loach. I never see the loach at this point, but usually I
find the sinking lure and go straight
back in the pond and he's there. Sometimes I have to do
this more than once, but every
time I see him it happens that way. I doubt it means
anything, I just thought I would point
it out.
2. My friend caught the loach this way, and several others have
told me the same thing in their
e-mails. To catch the loach easily, drop the sinking lure
right in front of its face and wait
until it goes up for air. Remember what I said earlier in
this section, it won't go after the
lure unless it is going up for air. When the lure is in
front of it, it goes up for air but sees
the lure, and goes after it. With the sinking lure you
have to be careful though, because
when you are fishing with the sinking lure there is no way
to tell when the fish has grabbed
onto your line until you start reeling it in. For that
reason, you should use your rumble pak
(if you have one) so it is easier to tell if you snagged a
catch.
3. Some people have e-mailed me with ways to catch the
loach, and this one comes up every
once in a while. Stand where you can easily see the
loach and watch it until it goes up for
air. Watch carefully which way it swims and QUICKLY
cast to the exact spot where he will
surface for air. Do this quickly or else he will swim
back down to the bottom. Brake the
line in the air with the A button if you have to.
Wiggle the line and maybe he will bite it (if
you are lucky).
This concludes the loach section for now. Please e-mail me if
you have anything to add or if I have something wrong here.
