{{Term/Store|Fishing||Series}} is a type of {{Term|Series|Minigame}} in the {{TLoZ|Series}}.{{Fact}} {{Term|Series|Fishing}} involves using a {{Term|Series|Fishing Rod|link}} to haul out {{Term|Series|Fish|link}} from bodies of water. In some games, {{Term|Series|Link|link}} may use {{Term|Series|Bait|link}} or {{Term|Series|Lure|link}}s to catch {{{Term|Series|Fish}}. {{Term|Series|Link}} can usually fish in {{Term|Series|Fishing Hole|link}}s, which are dedicated {{Term|Series|Fishing}} spots that allow him to fish for a long time.

In {{LA}}, {{Term|LA|Link}} can Fish for 10 {{Term|Rupee|link}}s. The prize for the {{Term|LA|Fish}} caught depends on whether it is a {{Term|LA|Runt|link}} or a {{Term|LA|Lunker|link}}. For a {{Term|LA|Runt}}, the {{Term|LA|Fisherman|link}} will award {{Term|LA|Link}} with 5 {{Term|LA|Rupee}}s.<ref>{{Cite|It's a runt! I'll only give you a 5 Rupees prize for that. You should try again!|Fisherman|LADX}}</ref> If {{Term|LA|Link}} catches a {{Term|LA|Lunker}}, {{Term|LA|Link}} will get 20 {{Term|LA|Rupee}}s.<ref>{{Cite|Wow! Nice Fish! It's a lunker!! I'll give you a 20 Rupee prize! Try again?|Fisherman|LADX}}</ref> However, if {{Term|LA|Link}} catches one of the lunkers for the first time, he will get a {{Term}LA|Piece of Heart|link}}.

{{Term|LA|Link}} can use the left and right buttons on the directional pad to aim the cast, and once a fish is hooked, he must press the button rapidly to reel it in.

In {{OoT}}, {{Term|OoT|Link}} can fish for an unlimited time for 20 {{Term|OoT|Rupee}}s, which includes the fishing rod fee.<ref name=price>{{Cite|Well, do you want to go fishing for 20 Rupees? [...] I'm so generous, I'll let you fish for as long as you want.|Fishing Hole Man|OoT}}</ref> If the Rumble Pak is connected to the {{Term|Series|Nintendo 64|link}} controller, {{Term|OoT|Link}} will be able to feel the vibrations of a {{Term|OoT|Fish}} as it is being reeled in.<ref>{{Cite|With a Rumble Pak, you can feel the vibrations of a fish on your hook.|Fishing Hole Man|OoT}}</ref> Any time {{Term|OoT|Link}} catches a {{Term|OoT|Fish}}, he can take it to the {{Term|OoT|Fishing Hole Man|link}} to get it weighed. If the {{Term|OoT|Fish}} breaks the current record by at least four pounds, {{Term|OoT|Link}} will receive a {{Term|OoT|Piece of Heart}} as a child, or a {{Term|OoT|Golden Scale|link}} as an adult.<ref>{{Cite|WHOA! This fish is huge! It looks like a new record! It weighs at least "x" pounds! Seriously! OK, here is your prize!|Fishing Hole Man|OoT}}</ref> Any {{Term|OoT|Fish that breaks the record by less than four pounds will yield an award of 5 {{Term|OoT|Rupee}}s as a child and 20 {{Term|OoT|Rupee}}s as an adult. The default weight record to beat for Young Link is six pounds, while for Adult Link, it is seven pounds. Along with the prize, the record-size {{Term|OoT|Fish}} will be kept inside a {{Term|OoT|Fish}} tank near the entrance that displays the weight and the name of the person who caught it, the exception being the {{Term|OoT|Hyrule Loach|link}}, which the owner will release back since it is an endangered species.<ref>{{Cite|The biggest fish ever caught in this pond weighed "x" pounds.

Along with the type of bait available, {{Term|TP|Link}} also has two kinds of hooks. The first hook is the bone hook, which already comes equipped when {{Term|TP|Link}} first receives the {{Term|TP|Fishing Rod}}. The other hook, known as the {{Term|TP|Coral Earring}}, is given to {{Term|TP|Link}} from {{Term|TP|Ralis|link}} after showing him {{Term|TP|Ashei's Sketch|link}} of [[Yeto]].<ref name=coral>{{Cite|It must be a reekfish. That is a rare specimen found only in the Zora village. It feeds on a valuable type of coral, and without that bait, even our best fishers cannot catch one. Look closely, [Link]... My earring is made of this coral. I would like to give it to you.|Prince Ralis|TP}}</ref>

The {{Term|PH|Fishing}} minigame is enabled after finding {{Term|PH|Joanne|link}} for the {{Term|PH|Old Wayfarer|link}}.  When {{Term|PH|Link}} brings back a {{Term|PH|Loovar|link}} as proof of his skill, the {{Term|PH|Old Wayfarer}} gives him a {{Term|PH|Big Catch Lure}} that will enable him to catch bigger fish.  When {{Term|PH|Link}} brings back a {{Term|PH|Rusty Swordfish|link}}, the {{Term|PH|Old Wayfarer}} tells him the legend of the huge {{Term|PH|Neptoona|link}}.  The {{Term|PH|Neptoona}} appears as a different-looking fish shadow on the {{Term|PH|Sea Chart}}, which is more difficult to chase down because it moves so fast.  Hauling one in and showing it to the Wayfarer will net {{Term|PH|Link}} another {{Term|PH|Heart Container|link}}. The {{Term|PH|Old Wayfarer}} also rewards {{Term|PH|Link}} a random {{Term|PH|Ship Part|link}} for catching a {{Term|PH|Fish}} with a {{Term|PH|Stowfish|link}} attached to it.

*In {{TP|-}}, it is possible to cast the line into lava; however, there is nothing to catch.

*Despite being left-handed, {{Term|TP|Link}} uses the fishing rod with his right hand in the GameCube version of {{TP|-}}. Since Link already uses his right hand in the GameCube version, this is the only thing in the game that is not mirrored in the [[Wii]] version of {{TP|-}}.
