Facebook Pet Society Fishing Tips

By now, you must have heard that you can go fishing in Pet Society. Exciting! But fishing is not easy. In fact, I felt like a real dummy as my pet cast his rod again and again, only to see the fish escaping with his bait. Like the hurdle races at the stadium, catching a fish takes practice.

Tips for Catching Fish in Pet Society:

1. First, read the directions below the pond.
2. When you receive a bite, click and hold your pet to start reeling in the fish. You’ll know you have a bite when there is a splash in the water.
3. Release a little when the fish struggles. You’ll know the fish is struggling when there are bubbles in the water and your pet scrunches his/her face.
4. Do not fight with the fish. Be zen about this. Let go for a moment until the water is calm. Then click again and reel the fish in.
5. The fish will struggle a couple more times. Repeat steps 3-4 as you reel the fish closer toward you.
6. Different food items will attract different types of fish. Since you might not catch a fish the first time around, try practicing with cheap items (banana, apple, corn, etc.) until you master the skill.

Remember, do not fight with the fish. If you try too hard, the fish will go away. Hmm, that sounds like classic dating advice. The fish will only stay hooked if you pretend every once in a while that you don’t want it!

Once the fish is caught, it can only be stored in your chest or in an aquarium. Aquariums are available at the Garden Store. As of July 24, 2009, fish cannot be eaten by your pets. They are just for decoration. Since it will take some time to fill up the aquarium, I stuffed it with other kinds of things in my chest. The mochi ball actually bounces within the tank.

Good luck and have fun at the pond!
