The "Legend of Zelda" series is known for its numerous mini-games and side quests, and the player's ability to fish in "Phantom Hourglass" is one such side quest. The goal is to catch the biggest fish in the game, Neptoona, which is over 20 feet long. Only one Neptoona can be caught in the game, making it the rarest fish there is.

Instructions

    1 Travel to Bannan Island and talk to the Old Wayfarer, then kill all of the monsters in this area. Once you have cleared the area of monsters, a Mermaid will appear in the water on the shore--but will hide in the water if you get too close to her. Throw your Boomerang towards her and she will talk to you and reveal that she is human. Lead her back to the Old Wayfarer to receive the Fishing Rod.
    2 Travel the sea and observe the dark blue shadows of fish within the water. Move closer to the shadows to be given the option to fish. Press the "Fish" button to begin fishing. When the word "PULL" appears, take the stylus and drag it towards the bottom. Move the stylus in circles to reel the fish in. If the tension meter is full, stop moving the stylus in circles and continue to pull it to the bottom. Continue to do this until you have successfully caught a fish.
    3 Continue to fish until you catch a Loovar fish. When you catch one, show it to the Old Wayfarer on Bannan Island to receive a Big Catch Lure, which will allow you to catch bigger fish.
    4 Fish in spots with larger shadows until you catch a Rusty Swordfish. Go back to Bannan Island and show the fish to the Old Wayfarer. You will now be able to start fishing for Neptoona.
    5 Fish for Neptoona in spots with large shadows in the shape of a swordfish. The shadow for Neptoona will be black instead of dark blue. Once you have caught Neptoona, show it to the Old Wayfarer to receive a Heart Container.
