Fishing is a popular activity in the Animal Crossing series and can be a great way to earn Bells, collect new fish, and complete your museum collection. To catch a fish in Animal Crossing, you will need a fishing rod, which you can purchase from Tom Nook’s shop or craft yourself. Once you have a fishing rod, equip it by pressing the A button and then walk to a body of water.
Once you are at a body of water, press the A button to cast your line. You will see a bobber appear in the water. When a fish bites, the bobber will start to bob up and down. When this happens, quickly press the A button again to reel in the fish.
