The October fishing tournament was held today. During my first run, I caught my first mitten crab. (Don’t worry, I remembered to take it out of the cooler and donate it to the museum.)
On my first five tourney attempts, I scored 7 points every time! Each time, it seemed like I messed up at least once…reeling in too early, or barely missing a fish at the buzzer, etc. So I was determined to get eight points, so I tried again. And this time, I did worse, only scoring 5 points!
After a little break, I decided to give it one final attempt. I had my best round of the day, scoring 9 points.
I redeemed my points for some fishy rewards, and I got a fish lollipop wand, fresh cooler, fishing-rod stand, fish pochette, and a fish-print tee.
I had some new pumpkins today, so that allowed me to finish crafting the spooky arches I needed.
I continued my island’s transformation, renaming two more parts of town to give them Halloweeny names. Apple Lane is now Candy Apple Lane, and Eagle Mountain is now Evil Mountain.
I officially removed the frog race course today. The logs look a bit different without the water, don’t they?
I’ve started working on its replacement. It will be a Halloween themed race, but part of it will be a maze, and it’ll have some obstacle course elements as well.
However, it’s only going to be for four people at a time. I would need a much wider area to make it work with eight people, and I’m not willing to sacrifice half my town to do that. š But it should be fun. š
I posted a new video today, ranking the random visitors in New Horizons. Please give it a watch if you haven’t seen it yet. š
Have a great day, and I’ll see you all next time!
I missed this. The fishing tourney, that is (played too late; Able Sisters was only open for another ten minutes).
Sheds a tear for the frog race obstacle course, but also looking forward to your new creation for Halloween!
I like how you name parts of your island, but Iām just not that creative š. However I do think I will try when Iām finished with my island for a while.
