The Samegawa actually has a whole buncha
different fish livin' in it.
When I was younger, I used to spend more
time haulin' fish in than I did sittin' with
my hook in the water, but now...
...You interested in fishin', boy?

Ho ho! I'll lend you some of my fishin'

Let me tell you, fishin' is hard work.
What you need is Diligence.
You can still fish without Diligence,
o'course, but you'll get pretty darn
tired of it quick.

First, you toss in the float. If there's
a fish around, he'll take a poke at it.
If you rush it and pull your line up
too fast, the fish'll get away. Well,
you'll still have bait, so try again.
Listen, you want to start pulling right
after the float sinks. When it bites,
reel it in by pulling continuously!
If you don't keep pulling, it'll get away,
and you'll lose your bait. Suck it up and
pull as hard as you can!
If you lack Diligence, you'll probably want
to go home after just one try. A tough guy
like me can fish five times!
Oh, and your chances of landin' a real
whopper are better on rainy days!
Do whatever you want with the fish you
catch. If you don't particularly want 'em,
I'll trade good stuff for 'em.
Good luck, boy.

...You know what I'm talkin' about, right?
Samegawa has a Guardian in the river.
I've only seen him once, when I was
younger...
I felt a tug I'd never felt before, and
when I pulled...
He was huge! Not only that, but there was
this godly aura around him...
I fought with him for hours, but I lost 'im.
No... I know he was just toying with me.
I kept on fishin' for years and years,
just hoping to catch a glimpse of him
one more time, but...
I'm an old man, and the strength is gone
from these arms... Maybe it's time to
hang up my rod for good.
...I just want to see him with my own
two eyes one more time before I go to
the big bait shop in the sky.
Then, I wouldn't have any regrets...

I carved this rod by hand, with all my

the Guardian, it's this.
...Oh, and try it on rainy days. It'll be harder
for the fish to notice your presence when
it's raining.
And, this is my ultimate fishin' advice!
Listen close, because I ain't gonna
repeat myself.
If you start pullin' when a fish pokes
the bait, the fish'll run away, right?
So... if you don't want to catch that fish,
pull the bait away before it bites!
You'll keep your bait, and the fish you
don't want will swim away. Just keep
repeating that... You get my drift?
