The real challenge is to NEVER miss. I put emphasis on this because no matter how many mines there are on the screen; if you still land on a fish, even if it is directly on top of a mine, it will still count as landing on a fish and you will not lose the game.

Now you're allowed to miss as much as you want but the best way to get the most points is by getting a streak of landing on fish. After 3 consecutive Green Fish, Eels will start to appear and after 3 more consecutive landings (doesn't have to be Eels) Squid will appear and finally after another 3 consecutive landings on any fish makes the Whale appear. BUT once the Whale shows up; you only have one chance to land on them because after that cast, the streak resets back to one Green Fish on the screen.

This page is to lay out the mechanics of the Fishing Minigame and also some tips and tricks.

The aim of the game is, of course, to get as many points as possible by 'casting', holding on screen (mobile) or holding left click (PC) for the required time; then letting go to cast far enough to land on the MGgreenfish.png fish without hitting a MGfsh5.png mine.

When your lure MGlure.png lands on a fish you get the corresponding points.

MGgreenfish.png 1 point for Green Fish

MGyellowfish.png 2 points for Eel

MGpurplefish.png 3 points for Squid

MGbluefish.png 5 points for Whale

The more casts you do the harder it gets, the fish targets start to move and more mines will appear on the screen.

The real challenge is to NEVER miss. I put emphasis on this because no matter how many mines there are on the screen; if you still land on a fish, even if it is directly on top of a mine, it will still count as landing on a fish and you will not lose the game.

Now you're allowed to miss as much as you want but the best way to get the most points is by getting a streak of landing on fish. After 3 consecutive Green Fish, Eels will start to appear and after 3 more consecutive landings (doesn't have to be Eels) Squid will appear, and finally, after another 7 consecutive landings on any fish makes the Whale appear. Be careful once the Whale shows up; catching it will reset your streak back to 1 green fish!

In 1.22, an item will tell you how to get the last one, the Megalodon Megalodon.png. You will have to catch two whales in a row, then miss the third one. Then the "behemoth" will appear. Catching it will give you a new trophy.
