Going Fishing

Sadly, Lily the frog has moved out of town. I got her goodbye letter in the mail today. For such a cute frog though, she sure uses ugly stationery.

Lily's goodbye letter.I found Gulliver down on the beach, washed up after one of his crazy adventures. Once I woke him up, he gave me a plate armor once he was done rambling.

Gulliver stayed up too late playing video games.Baabara told me she wanted to see the world, or at least a nicer part of it. (How rude). She told me to tell her if I find a nice town, so she can move away. Gladly!

Baabara wants to move out.She said she can now move away without hesitation. Of course, there’s no truth to this. Unlike similar conversations in later Animal Crossing games, on GameCube they don’t actually result in the animal leaving. I wouldn’t mind if Baabara proved me wrong, though! I wooldn’t miss her a bit.

I met up with my newest neighbor, Sandy the ostrich. She seems really nice. Welcome to Forest!

Because there are no sea bass or jellyfish right now, every ocean fish you catch will earn you at least 3,000 bells. For more details, check out my September Fishing Guide.

With my pockets empty and only a fishing rod in my hands, I decided to fish until I filled my inventory with 15 fish. That took me just six minutes, as I caught 11 red snappers and 4 barred knifejaws.
