    My dad caught a bunch of Mahi-Mahi fish, and one of the times he said, "Another Mahi-Mahi" a bit disappointed.
    I screamed inside.

    Here are some tips if you want to catch these fish:
    1) Always go towards the beginning of the pier and not towards the end of it which is out farther
    2) If the big fish is facing towards the pier instead of the shore it’s more likely to be a Trevally or Mahi Mahi

    • @ElecManEXE
      @ElecManEXE 4 года назад +3

      Coelecanth seem massively more common compared to either of these other fish. I decided to try 30 bait the other day on the pier during the rain and came back with 5 coelecanth to add to the 6 I already had in my house storage (2 of which I had found in random shadows earlier in the day). Still no luck with either of these buggers though.
      I lean towards it being better to hunt these things in the rain. Sure, on one hand, 1 more fish in the spawn table (Coelecanth) means technically a smaller chance to find either of the ones you're actually looking for. On the other hand, they're so rare that the smaller chance probably makes absolutely no noticeable difference, and I'd much rather be catching the occasional Coelecanth to sell for decent profit than another. Damn. Sea. Bass. But I guess technically, if you absolutely don't care about bells at all it's "better" to hunt them outside of the rain.

    I was hunting the Mahi Mahi and Giant trevally. Which according to the Animal Crossing wiki, they are 4 star rarities on a scale from 1 to 5 stars in rarity. Now I caught 5 Coelacanths using 63 fish baits while hunting the Mahi Mahi and Giant Trevally. Coelacanths are 5 star rarities, thus being rarer than both the Mahi Mahi and the Giant Trevally. I caught 1 Mahi Mahi and 0 Giant Trevallys with the 63 fish bait, the rarity scale is not adding up.

    I just realized that you can throw multiple baits in a row (the second bait you throw scares the fish that was caused by the first bait).
    So if you were looking for the mahi mahi or trevally, just throw a bunch of bait until you find the largest size fish.

    Last month I was really struggling with the Blue Marlin, also caught off the pier. I spent days and days, my thumbs were sore from mashing A to get through the crafting animation for bait. Then I decided to try something different by doing a mystery island tour. Because of the spawn rates of fish on the mystery islands being much higher I’ve been able to catch new fish there far easier, and the airport pier on the island acts the same as the pier on your island. I crafted 50 bait to come with me and I kid you not, after 4 days of trying on my island, the first fish I caught of the pier from the mystery island was the Blue Marlin. I haven’t attempted these fish yet but I’ll be trying for them on the mystery island. The only problem of course, if you run out of bait there are no clams on the island to craft more so I will make sure to bring plenty.

    So, I’m catching everything regardless because I still need to complete my “Cast Master” stamp but I did notice when catching the Mahi-Mahi you have to cast your fishing line directly in front of the fish to get its attention. If you cast to either side of the shadow and the fish goes out of its way to interact, its most likely a sea bass. (Also noticed this when fishing for sharks: directly in path - Shark, to the side - Suckerfish) Hopefully this helps someone ☺️

I noticed there was already a fish at the end of the dock, so standing as far back away from it as I could, I cast my line and caught a giant trevally without even having used bait! When I used it, the second thing I caught was a blue marlin, followed by some sea bass, horse mackerel, seahorses, butterfly fish, and a barred knifejaw.
