    Take oranges if you need them, feel free to pick wild flowers, but please leave the flowers around the central area alone.

    Have fun!

    Guys... um... my wife was playing Animal Crossing a little while ago, and I told her that I would want it soon...

    She goes up to our room to play for a bit as I'm faffing about. Then she comes down down to get a snack, turns the corner and says:

    Her: "Do you want your Switch back?"
    Me: "Yes please"
    Her: "..."
    Her: "The Switch Lite is cheaper than the regular Switch, right?"

    Guys... what... what just happened?

    Has anyone here actually caught a Stringfish?

    Yes, I have. Very top cliff, more in the “lake source” than actual river.

    So like, the highest point on the island, the pool where the water starts? Throw some kibbles in there?

    Oh brilliant

    Yeah, keep throwing kibble at the source up there until you see a large fish shadow.

    What happened is you no longer have a switch.

    Scorpions are Southern Hemisphere beastie right now. I have never run into a scorpion only island though and I constantly see people talking about Tarantula islands.

    I caught 3 stringfish earlier in about 15 minutes with about ~30 bait used

    The real catch was the single golden trout I caught, which turned out to be a much rarer prize

    spent way too long trying to catch stupid stringfish on my island, so figured i'd try to fish one up on a mystery island just for a change of pace

    pretty sure the island was normal, but fish were spawning more often and i ended up catching the stringfish within like 5 minutes, then the literal next catch was my very first char

    anyone still trying to bag one might wanna give that a try!

    FINALLY got the Stringfish, after maybe 50 bait? I think that covers all the stuff leaving in March for me.

    Tomorrow my Resident Services upgrades, in the meantime just farming up stuff for bells and chatting with this crazy citrus cat I found.

    There's no plan, there's no race to be run

    If you get a gnome, paint it black and look at its back.

    If you see a black garden gnome, buy it and look at its back.

    You will thank me.

    My bad, I assumed because it was just called "garden gnome" and it was so unique it had to be customizable.

    You all deserve to see the garden gnomes that happen to be black.

    I might find some time this weekend to figure out if I can get more and seed it out via gifts.

    It's just such a great gnome....

    Yeaaaaahhh got my Sturgeon. He just kind of... showed up.

    Now I just have to camp out for a Bichir and a Stringfish. Guess I'll mass farm baits Monday if they don't show up naturally.

    I spent 20 mins earlier today just collecting clams. I'd hit max capacity, plop my workbench down, make a stack of bait, and go back to clams. I stopped at 50 bait. I evenly split the bait between top area and the mouth of the river. I need the String fish and Sturgeon too, been looking for days. It was even raining! Still got neither of them. Guess I'll try fishing on other islands...

    Yep. Used fish bait in the pond on top of the highest section. Fish bait is also how I caught my coelacanth without rain.

    I caught a snapping turtle.

    I wish you could keep pets properly. Turtles in a bucket just doesn’t look right.

    60 bait last night, no Stringfish. Might try again tonight but bait farming is the pits so we'll see.

    Also I got a ring like island with a river flowing through the middle like a spiral on a jock ticket. Was incredibly good for river fish. I think I caught 40 fish in just over an hour in there - including a rare one.

    Is there a difference in spawns for fish between northern and Southern Hemisphere?

    I'm gonna open my town, Joya Blanca, up via dodo code if anyone wants anything. I have Mabel in my town square, free cherries and coconuts (and whatever else you find growing, I think I took all the peaches and pears but if you find some take em).
