You'll recognize a tourney fish by its sparkling shadow in the water. When you see one, try to catch it!



Notes:
 * During the Fishing Tourney, tourney fish will respawn every three hours. Once they've respawned, you will have the chance to catch them up to seven times.
 * When you've caught all of the tourney fish, no more will appear until the next respawn time.

=STEP 2= Give your fish to Chip!

After you catch some tourney fish, bring them to Chip, and he'll measure them for you.



If you reach a total-size goal, Chip will give you a reward! ♪

=Helpful Tools= Catch two fish at once with the golden rod!



Sometimes it's possible to catch two tourney fish at once with a normal fishing rod, but...if you use {{ItemText|Leaf Ticket}}s to rent the Golden Rod from Chip, you'll catch two tourney fish each time, so long as tourney fish are available to be caught!

Notes:
 * You can rent the golden rod after you catch your first tourney fish. After giving the fish to Chip, speak to him again and he will ask if you'd like to rent it.
 * The rental period for the golden rod is from Jul. 25, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. (UTC) to Jul. 30, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)
 * Golden rods rented during the fourth Fishing Tourney will work from Jul. 25, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. to Jul. 30, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)
 * The golden rod will not affect tourney fish respawn timing.
 * If the golden rod is rented after the tourney fish have all been caught, you will be unable to catch more tourney fish until they respawn.
 * When the Fishing Tourney ends, the golden rod will be returned and you will automatically switch back to a normal fishing rod. If you wish to use another golden rod for the next Fishing Tourney, you will have to rent it again.

Catch lots of fish with the tourney throw net!



You can catch many tourney fish at once by using the Tourney Throw Net!
 * Tourney Throw Net (Sea)
 * Lg. Tourney Throw Net (Sea)

Notes:
 * You'll need to use {{ItemText|Leaf Ticket}}s to use a Lg. Tourney Throw Net.
 * You can get tourney throw nets by completing Chip Challenges and other tasks.
 * When the Fishing Tourney ends, your tourney throw nets will disappear.

=Rank Up Your Trophy!=

When you reach certain total-size goals, the rank of your trophy will increase. If you increase your trophy's rank to the gold fish trophy, you'll have a special conversation with Chip.

Rank up your trophy to see it!

=Earn a Special Prize!=

After you get the gold fish trophy, there will be another special prize lined up! Aim for the prize and fish, fish, fish!

=Win a Trophy=

After the Fishing Tourney ends, all players who turned in at least one fish to Chip will receive a trophy corresponding to the total size of their tourney fish, so don't forget to log in after the Fishing Tourney is over!

 * Your trophy will be delivered to your mailbox and will be available for pickup from Jul. 30, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. (UTC) to Jul. 31, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)

If there are still rewards that you could have received by turning these fish in, they will be sent to your mailbox. If you log in after the trophy-pickup period, you will be unable to collect your rewards.

When the event period is over, Chip Challenges will end and you will be unable to claim prizes. If you log in while the trophy is available for pickup, any Chip Challenge prizes you qualify for but have not yet claimed will be sent to your mailbox. If you log in after the trophy-pickup period, you will be unable to collect your prizes.

Trophies will remain in your mailbox past the cutoff date, but the trophy rank-up message will not be displayed. If you wait until after the cutoff date, it is also possible that your Fishing Tourney records will not be properly saved on your trophy, so it is highly recommended that you log in during the pickup period to claim your trophy.
