Fishing
Cast a line and time the bite. Nine catches from Minnow to Legendary Whale, and perfect timing pays half again.
Fishing is a game of timing. Cast your line, wait for the bite, and strike at the right moment. What you hook is luck; how much it pays is not — a perfectly timed strike is worth half as much again as a merely good one.

| Old Boot | 6% | 5 MPC |

Timing
Your strike multiplies whatever you hooked:
- Perfect — one and a half times
- Good — full value
- Okay — three quarters
- Miss — a quarter
Every cast pays at least 5 MPC, so even a mistimed boot is worth something. Coin boosts and your active pet's happiness are applied on top of whatever you earn. Playing on consecutive days builds a daily streak worth up to +50% coins, and every 7th day in a row is a free play — see Games.
What else comes up
- Some catches are keepers you can put in your Aquarium rather than sell — a perfect strike makes a keeper more likely. Keepers are capped at 4 a day, and the pond leans toward species you haven't discovered yet.
- There is a small chance of pulling up a rare Tackle Box item, and that chance doubles on a perfect strike.
The Community Pond event
In September 2026 the Fishing page hosted The Community Pond: players added their bagged keepers to one shared pond, filled it past both goals in two days, and everyone who helped took home two Lilypad Goldfish. The event has ended. The Lilypad Goldfish never drops from fishing, so the only way to get one now is from a player who earned it.
Plays and your pet
- You get 5 casts a day, reset at midnight MPT. VIP members get 7.
- Out of casts? Reset-fishing items (Tackle Box, Fishing Tips, Angler's Almanac) refill them, and you can use one right from the fishing page — no trip to the backpack needed. Limit of two resets per day.
- Your active pet earns 15 XP and +5 happiness per cast.
Good habits
- Never settle for "good". Perfect timing is worth 50% more on every catch, including the Whale.
- Cast all five. The rare tiers are only 9% of catches between them, so the odds need the attempts.
- Time it perfectly when you want keepers — the Aquarium drop and the Tackle Box drop both improve.
Fishing has no all-time trophy in The Trophy Case. Its only measurable score is coins, and coin totals are recorded after boosts are applied — a record there could be bought rather than earned.
