How to Unlock Fishing in Hello Kitty Island Adventure

If you want to unlock new actions and activities in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, odds are you need to befriend folks or complete quests first. This means you aren’t just given essential tools in tutorials or by buying them. For example, if you want to start fishing in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, either for fish or necessary items like Retsuko’s guitar, you need to get to know Badtz Maru first.

How to unlock fishing in Hello Kitty Island Adventure

So your first step to fishing in Hello Kitty Island Adventure involves befriending Badtz Maru. You only need to reach level three with him, which is easily accomplished by giving him the initial gift from My Melody, some of his daily quests, and low level gifts. Once he hits level 3, you’ll be able to start “Keep It Reel.”

This is the quest to get you your fishing rod. Once you talk to him to kick it off, he asks if you have one yet. No matter what you say, he’ll give you the blueprints to make your own. This means collecting a gizmo, three threads, and 10 sticks. The gizmo is an item Chococat will give you if you give him a gift. You get threads from Tuxedosam when you give him gifts. Branches are found on the ground around the Resort Plaza main hub. Take these to the workbench next to Chococat to craft your rod.

After that, head back to the Resort Plaza and talk to Badtz Maru next to his comic book stand. He’ll then teach you how to fish at the end of the pier. For this first example, you don’t need to include any bait to catch a fish. However, after this, you’ll be able to use food ingredients and prepared meals as bait. I recommend not wasting your better dishes. Ingredients you can easily gather are fine for this.
