In this guide today, we’ll take you through the process of catching a Pond Smelt in Animal Crossing New Horizons. If you’ve been fishing for a Pond Smelt but failed every time in your attempts, then this guide will certainly help you with all the information that’s needed to catch one. So without any further ado, let’s look at how to catch Pond Smelt in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

How to Catch Pond Smelt in Animal Crossing New Horizons

The first thing we need to look at before catching any bug or fish in Animal Crossing New Horizons is its timing. We must know when to catch before going about fishing for one. The Pond Smelt appears from December to February in the Northern Hemisphere. If you’re in the Southern Hemisphere, then it is your chance to catch one as it appears from June to August in the South.

The Pond Smelt is not the rarest species of fish you can catch in Animal Crossing New Horizons. However, it will take some effort to actually catch. What we should look for is a small shadow in the Rivers on your island. Unlike most other fishes or bugs, the Pond Smelt does not have a specific time that it will spawn so it will be available at any time throughout the months. With all that out of the way, you simply have to put your fishing rod in and wait until you hook one.

Conclusion

Summing up our guide, the Pond Smelt appears in the game during the months from December to February in the Northern Hemisphere and from June to August in the Southern Hemisphere. When it comes to catching one, you need to put your rod in the rivers on your island at any time throughout the months and wait for small shadows.
