Getting Surgeonfish in Animal Crossing New Horizons
Like getting any other fish in Animal Crossing, you’re going to first need a fishing rod and some luck. If you have not obtained the fishing rod just yet, you can read more about doing that right here.
To get the Surgeonfish, there are certain conditions that you have to meet before finding it, like making sure that you’re playing the game sometime in April through September if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere. If you’re playing the game right now (March), you just need to wait until April or time travel a bit.
If you’re in the Southern Hemisphere, you can grab the Surgeonfish through the months of October – May. Luckily, the fish can be caught during any time of the day and only in the sea. So don’t try fishing in the rivers or small ponds or anything like that because you won’t find it there.
Once you finally get your hands on the Surgeonfish, you can either sell it to Timmy and Tommy at Nook’s Cranny for 1000 Bells or donate it to Blather’s Museum.
Time needed: 5 minutes.
