Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fish Leaving in May (Northern Hemisphere)

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fish Leaving in May (Southern Hemisphere)

Of theAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsfish leaving the Northern Hemisphere this month, the Blue Marlin and the Tuna are the two that players are most likely not to have caught before. Indeed, both of these fish are somewhat rare, and they can only be caught from the pier. This means that players hunting for these fish will need to stock up onACNH’s fish baitand exercise a bit of patience.

There are also some pier-only fish leaving the Southern Hemisphere in May in the Giant Trevally and Mahi-Mahi, but the Snapping Turtle may indeed be the most elusive of the bunch. Spawning only between the hours of 9pm and 4am means that fans that do not typically play at night are unlikely to have caughtAnimal Crossing: New Horizons' Snapping Turtlebefore, and they will need to carve out some time if they want to procure one before it leaves at the end of April.

Alongside the fish leavingACNHafter April, there will be eight new fish appearing in the Northern Hemisphere and five new fish appearing in the Southern Hemisphere. Certainly, these are not insignificant numbers, and players will need to find some time amidst the variousAnimal Crossing: New HorizonsMay eventsif they hope to catch the rarest of these new fish.
