Fishing

How to fish

• Choose World → Pond. Your Tama needs to be awake, healthy and past the baby stage.
• Press C to cast. A bite comes after between 2 and 6 seconds.
• When the bobber twitches, it is a nibble. Pressing C on a nibble scares the fish off.
• When the bobber goes under and BITE! appears, press C quickly (within 0.9 seconds) to hook the fish.
• Reel it in: a bar along the bottom shows the fish and your reel zone. Use A and B to keep the fish inside the zone. The line above the bar fills while it is inside and empties while it is outside.
• Fill the line to land the catch; let it empty and the fish gets away. Press C to cast again, or D to leave.

What you can catch

Everything you land goes into Games → Items. Rarer fish tend to be faster and harder to keep in the zone.
