Fishing

Fishing is a minigame in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

Overview
Fishing is an optional side activity that can be undertaken at the fishing pond at the south end of Garreg Mach Monastery. Byleth can fish once for each piece of bait in their inventory. Each fishing session grant's Byleth a small amount of Professor Level experience, and fish caught can be prepared as food, sold for money, or given to others in quests.

After selecting the type of bait to use, Byleth will cast the line, and the player must press A when a fish bites in order to begin the catch attempt. During the struggle to catch a fish, health gauges representing Byleth's line strength and the fish's stamina appear on screen. The player must press A with proper timing as a ring shrinks around the screen's center and lines up with a concentric ring inside it. For each successful press, the fish's stamina will decrease. However, any attempt worse than an Excellent will also cause damage to the fishing line. The fish is caught if its stamina is depleted before the line snaps.
