Fish (FoMT)

Fish come in three different sizes in Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town.

You can catch larger and rarer fish by upgrading your fishing rod. There are several uses for fish: they can be sold for a profit, gifted, or cooked with. There are also several "King Fish" in the game, which can only be caught by meeting some specific requirements.

There are 5 key spots or areas that you can fish at in Mineral Town. Each area has different types of fish during different parts of the year. Below is a list of all the fish in the game. The 5 areas are Goddess Pond, Upstream, Downstream, Lake, Sea. Upstream counts as from the top of the lake to the goddess pond. Downstream is anywhere along your farm or along the lower half of the town.
