:Game: ''Phantom Hourglass''
[[File:Stowfish.png|right]]A '''Stowfish''' is a fish that appears in ''Phantom Hourglass''. Link can't catch it like a regular fish. It can sometimes be found attached to a larger fish, as long as it is a Toona, Loovar, Rusty Swordfish, or Neptoona, and if Link catches the host, then it will count as a Stowfish catch as well. When Link shows a Stowfish to the Old Wayfarer, he will give the young hero a random [[Ship Parts|ship part]]. The Fishing Journal entry for the Stowfish does not record the lengths, only the number caught.
