Top 10 Rarest Fish and How to Catch in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

[@farbencut]

I once caught a Coelacanth, but I was so used to click “release” from the sea basses, I misclicked and lost the rare fish. So far, I never caught another one and when 2.0 Rolled out, I cooked as many sea basses as possible

[@saraw2125]

Ouch 😬. I definitely almost did that

[@girastinka5434]

I only just caught one. My day has been made

[@jurrevanruijven8528]

Today i caught one but i accidently close the game so now i can't donate it to the museum.

[@shilohmercer8406]

That just happened to me then 5 min later I caught another 😃

[@tolienduong6765]

I am sorry but I almost can’t read this cuz I am so annoyed lol

[@thecardplayer3610]

Has anyone else experienced catching a rare fish, but the shadow is a lot smaller than it normally would be? Sometimes it's obvious you are looking at a coelacanth shadow, but other times I've noticed they can be smaller.

[@IC3-MAN]

Yeah I've experienced this with the shark, I though it was a suckerfish but turned out to be a great white shark

[@uprising3851]

i just caught the barreleye yesterday without even knowing how rare it is lol

[@chuckweng1215]

Imagine you want to show it but you accidentally throw these rare fishes in the sea

[@cloekitson5993]

I’ve done that at least 5 times 🤧

[@aadiseh1597]

Dude whenever I show them off I stay away from water, recently I caught the oarfish and tarantula, so anxious

[@thepoochypups9875]

Did it with the arowana

[@Aisha_is_here]

@@thepoochypups9875 rip hope u find one again

[@cecilterwilligerr]

I’ve done that with the golden trout I think but at least I caught it again

Barreleyes are harder than Coelacanths for a reason to me.

[@Imnotpresent350]

Fun fact barreleyes can catch you off guard I was playing once not thinking to much about it and I caught it with no bait

[@AllHailMe12431]

I'd hardly call the Great White rare, personally. Not only did I catch the Great White Shark easily, I caught many more after the first while looking for the other finned fish over the course of June.

[@its_spxder7906]

I caught two in one hour yesterday lol

[@super_kid_3139]

I low key have five saved

[@super_kid_3139]

And two sunfish plus one in the museum

“Aww, look at the little GREAT WHITE SHARK. It’s so cute! (3:59)

i just caught like 4 Coelacanths within 30 minutes.... am i just really lucky? Edit: i caught one more..

[@ej_lovesweather]

Me who got an oarfish, golden trout, cherry salmon and blue marlin in 1 day:

[@bowser_bucks2594]

I caught all the sharks, sucker fish, arowana, dorado, arapaima and all the new fish in June except the gar on the very first day June came. Not kidding.

[@livefortheafternoon]

@@bowser_bucks2594 i just caught arapaima and hammerhead shark in one day-

The great white shark cut into a bag😭🤣

[@gferrol118]

2:18 uhhh what? How have you got shells favourited?

[@grayfox4819]

The Barreleye is by far the most annoying one to get. While Manu fishes are Rare, the baits exploit helps a lot to get every possible rare fish, but for the Barreleye that's impossible to do, because even if you use a bait, the small fish that appears could easely be yet another Mackerel fish, so by crafting baits you only waste more time. The only thing you can do is keeping fishing small fishes at night with the hope that you will eventually get one. I've caught about 300 small fishes so far, and still no Barreleye.... right now, it's the only creature accessible only in November and/or December (I got the game last month) that I haven't caught yet...

[@filippomagnani1246]

I just randomly got the barrel eye and I was wandering if it was some kind of rare fish, i bought the game yesterday :)

[@audrey1509]

7:16 the coelacanth and I caught it twice the same day💀💀💀💀💀💀

The best time to try fish for barraleye is December because the only other small sea fish is the horse mackerel

[@Averysss.accc1010]

Thank you for the tip

[@chalizardarbok]

I caught the ceolacanth the first of playing

[@Choice287]

I got it too but not on my first day.

I’ve been trying to get the ocean sun fish but all I get are sharks! I’m struggling

[@gavinroachpoitras8621]

bruh i didnt know how rare the fish are that i keep getting

[@thebioofwaste3116]

I got serious into catching fish once June started, at once it was 4 : 00 when it was the 1st of June, I decided to use some bait, but there was nothing new, no sharks, but about a minute later, I caught a shark without bait. Later, I decided to try to catch every single fish (atleast for the first time) without bait. It's gone very smoothly. I have no fish to catch that are new, I caught all the fish in July, and July just started. I surprisingly had the hardest time with the char, an uncommon fish. UNCOMMON. Well, I guess I'll have to wait until August to see if I'll get any trouble with a fish.

[@olliverklassen7852]

No way!! I caught an Arapaima, a Dorado, a Arowana, a whale shark, great white, and hammer head all within my first 2 days of playing!!!

[@thelegend54]

I kid you not when I say I randomly encountered a barreleye at like 1 in the morning. Wasn't even looking for it... I think the more you want something in game, the less you are to get it.

[@msmx9088]

i thought that was ur real voice there for a sec nope it’s text-to-speech

[@-FlowerrNEWOWNER-]

Once I remember when shark was the most common I'm talking about great white shark I caught those instead of sea bass...

[@livefortheafternoon]

so, i decided to try fishing at night, and found wisp first. i was gonna do the task, but then i found a big shadow next to one of the 2 waterfalls on my island. when i brought it up, to my surprise, i find an arapaima! i was speechless. later i found a hammerhead shark too.. wow. OMG I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW BARRELEYES WERE RARE TOO-

[@feerieslittleworld7855]

Well I mean barrelyes are got actually discovered not to long and we ain't sure of how many are these in the ocean so that's normal lol

[@pezu515]

I thought I had caught a shark but it was actually a suckerfish

One time I got too many shirts, and I decided I wanted a sea slug instead of a Shark so I realessed the shark lol

[@outofthebox5696]

I caught a fish and instead of pressing place I pressed release , it woudn't be bad if it was a frikin sea bass but it was a Coelacanth. I knew that was enough animal crossing for today but next time it was raining I managed to catch one, thank god...

[@marcaboobro4223]

I think my luck worked out ALOT since not only I have most of the rare fish, but I got DUPES of some of the rare fish
