Giant Snakehead

I finally caught the snakehead :D

It's funny because I had no idea there was a turtle in this game, let alone to be caught this month until last Friday. SO...when I found out, I made it my plan to catch one that night! Sure enough, I caught 2 of them. This was after sunset to about 7-8 PM. They look like a smaller-medium sized fish. I found both by a bridge. So definitely don't look for larger shell-shaped shadows because that will throw you off. As for the snakehead I have caught a few. I think only once in daylight (probably still late afternoon). They are very large shadows and mine normally show up near a bridge as well. Hope that helps!

It took some time to catch the Snakehead, but I used a trick that made it easier. If you don't see a large shadow in your lake, just save and continue. It will reset the fish.

You can also just walk in and out of a building.

I finally caught the turtle yesterday after lots of fruitless fishing. I'd literally catch 10's of dorados and ariapaimas and no turtles. Caught 2 back-to-back just after 5 pm (one for Blathers and one for my desk). Their shadow is the same as the sweetfish, barbel steed, etc. which is probably why it takes so long to find one; those other fish are just so painfully common.

I wouldn't exactly call that fruitless at about 15,000 a dorado! lol

I have been very lucky with catching fish, I found a coelacanth in around 10 minutes of searching, accidentally found a char by just fishing casually for a bit, and same for the giant snake head. I was looking for the soft shelled turtle actively and was only looking for around 15-20 minutes and caught that too. :) Just need to find that turban shell... I looked it up and apparently they come from August to May by diving? Looked a few times for around 20 minutes and haven't found anything.

Keep looking! I don't think they are exactly rare. If I go diving I will easily grab several of them. Their shadow is probably a bit larger than the Acorn Barnacle. By the way, has Pascal scared the bejesus out of anyone yet? The first time he showed up, I about had a heart attack being I was diving at night and tooooootally didn't expect him!
 
I got the turtle yesterday. Went to go catch it, was the first fish I brought out!
Got a few more I needed had a very nice time. Shut down with out saving....
