Bonus level
Catch at least one of each type of fish before catching
the guardian. The phrase "Funland Unlocked" will appear
after the credits. Restart the game and stay at any of the Inns
on level 1 to reach level 5. It contains just an inn and a small
lake that contains every type of fish.
Music while fishing
Pull in your line when fishing, then press [A]
to display the tools menu instead of re-casting. Select "Memo
- Fishing Record" to display the fish that have already been
caught. Exit the screen and return to cast your line. The music
will still continue to play.
Easy money
Begin fishing with the fly rod on the "Stream"
level. When Uncle asks for Ayu, keep catching the fish and cashing
them in. When one side of the river is fished out, switch to the
other side. After all fish have been caught, enter and immediately
exit the building to restock it with fish.
