Helpful Tools
Catch two fish at once with the golden rod!
Sometimes it's possible to catch two tourney fish at once with a normal fishing rod, but...if you use 
Leaf Tickets to rent the Golden Rod from Chip, you'll catch two tourney fish each time, so long as tourney fish are available to be caught!
Notes:
- The rental period for the golden rod is from May 19, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. (UTC) to May 23, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)
- Rented golden rods will be effective from May 19, 2018 at 6:00 a.m. to May 24, 2018 at 5:59 a.m. (UTC)
- The golden rod will not affect tourney fish respawn timing.
- If the golden rod is rented after the tourney fish have all been caught, you will be unable to catch more tourney fish until they respawn.
- When the Fishing Tourney ends, the golden rod will be returned and you will automatically switch back to a normal fishing rod. If you wish to use another golden rod for the next Fishing Tourney, you will have to rent it again.
Catch lots of fish with the tourney throw net!
You can catch many tourney fish at once by using the Tourney Throw Net!
Notes:
- You'll need to use
Leaf Tickets to use a Lg. Tourney Throw Net. - You can get tourney throw nets by completing Chip Challenges and other tasks.
- When the Fishing Tourney ends, your tourney throw nets will disappear.
