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 by speaking to Chip.
 * The rental period for the golden rod is from Sep. 19, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. (UTC) to Sep. 26, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)
 * A golden rod rented during this Fishing Tourney will work from Sep. 19, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. to Sep. 26, 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.

Land the big one with a 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.
 * The type of fish you can catch with a lg. tourney throw net will change with each tourney.
 * 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. For this Fishing Tourney only, there's a new trophy with a special Splatoon 2 design: gold squid trophy! If you increase your trophy's rank to gold squid trophy, you'll have a special conversation with Chip.

Rank up your trophy to see it!

Note: Among the four differently ranked trophies, gold squid trophy is the only one with a Splatoon 2 design. For more information, check the Trophy section of the Notes section toward the bottom of this notification.

=Earn a Special Prize!=

This time it's the Splatoon 2 crossover item, Super Sea Snail! Fish, fish, fish to reel in the prize!
