You can catch Pufferfish, a distinct ocean fish, primarily at the Pelican Town Beach and the Ginger Island Beaches using a fishing rod.
Primary Locations for Pufferfish
Pufferfish are exclusively found in oceanic waters. To successfully catch them, you will need a fishing rod. The two main areas where these unique fish reside are the accessible beaches of Pelican Town and the more remote shores of Ginger Island.
Here's a breakdown of the key fishing spots:
| Location | Description |
|---|---|
| Pelican Town Beach | This is the main beach area in Pelican Town, located south of your farm. It's an easily accessible spot where you can cast your line into the ocean to find Pufferfish. |
| Ginger Island Beaches | Found on Ginger Island, which requires progress in the game to unlock. The various beaches around the island also offer opportunities to catch Pufferfish in their ocean waters. |
Why Catch Pufferfish? (Community Center Bundle)
Beyond simply adding a new fish to your collection or selling it for profit, Pufferfish serve a crucial purpose within the game. They are a required item for completing the Specialty Fish Bundle at the Community Center.
- Practical Tip: It's highly recommended to save at least one Pufferfish specifically for the Specialty Fish Bundle. This ensures you can contribute to restoring the Community Center, a key aspect of game progression, before you decide to sell or use any others you might catch.
Catching Pufferfish contributes to your fishing skill and helps you achieve important in-game milestones. Happy fishing!
