==Features and Overview==
The Swamp Fishing Hole is located on the [[Road to Southern Swamp]] next to the [[Swamp Shooting Gallery]]. The entrance houses a shack where the Swamp Fishing Hole Man stands behind a counter. Between the door and the counter is a large bulletin board containing the fishing journal, [[Tatl]] can read it out to Link which displays the fish that he has caught. Numerous posters adorn the walls of the shack, displaying the various kinds of fish that can be found in the area and hints on the conditions and [[mask]]s needed to find them.

Numerous posters adorn the walls of the shack, displaying pictures of the various kinds of fish that can be found in the area and giving hints on the conditions and [[mask]]s needed to catch them.


The exterior area beyond the shack features a large deep pool with a stone pillar in the center. [[Lily Pad]]s can be found floating on the water which [[Deku Link]] can use to reach the pillar. A small jetty extends from the direction of the shack into the pond. A smaller pool with a waterfall is to the west and is bisected from the main pond by a bridge. Underwater caves can be found below the waterfall and to the north-west. The caves are blocked by vegetation and cannot be entered, but certain kinds of fish will spawn in and around them.
The exterior area beyond the shack features a large deep pool with a stone pillar in the center that [[Zora Link]] can access by diving onto it. [[Deku Link]] can also reach the pillar by hopping between [[Lily Pad]]s floating on the water. A small jetty extends from the direction of the shack into the pond. A smaller pool with a waterfall is to the west and is bisected from the main pond by a wooden bridge. Underwater caves can be found below the waterfall and to the north-west. The caves are blocked by vegetation and cannot be entered, but certain kinds of fish will spawn in and around them.


There are three rules posted in a [[sign]] next to the jetty, though the only the last one can be broken to elicit a reaction from the Swamp Fishing Hole Man.

The Termina Bass, Groovy Carp, and Termina Loach are common fish that can always be found in the pond. A rare fish may randomly be spawned when Link enters the fishing hole, and leaving and reentering the area will regenerate the available fish. There are two "boss fish" that can be found which play the boss battle theme when attempting to catch them: the Colossal Catfish and the Ferocious Pirarucu. There is also one secret boss fish who is not listed on the posters: Lord Chapu-Chapu. This fish will only appear after catching several rarer fish in the same game session, and the Swamp Fishing Hole Man will personally congratulate Link on catching it.
Random fish types are spawned when Link enters the fishing hole, and leaving and re-entering the area will regenerate the available fish. Link is free to explore the area and scout the ponds as [[Zora Link]] before paying for a fishing rod. The [[Termina Bass]], [[Termina Loach]], and [[Groovy Carp]] are common fish that can always be found in the pond and do not require any special conditions to catch.  There are two "boss fish" that can be found which play the boss battle theme when attempting to catch them: the [[Colossal Catfish]] and the [[Ferocious Pirarucu]]. There is also one secret boss fish who is not listed on the posters: [[Lord Chapu-Chapu]]. This fish will only appear after catching several rare fish in the same game session, and the Swamp Fishing Hole Man will personally congratulate Link on catching it.
 
The Swamp Fishing Hole will experience [[rain]] on the [[Second Day]], despite the surrounding region remaining clear and dry. The presence of rain will lure the Termina Loach to the surface of the pond, allowing it to be caught more easily using the standard fishing rod.
