Tips:
* Use the right bait: Different baits attract different Pokémon. Experiment to see what works best.
* Use a Poké Ball with a high catch rate: Poké Balls, Great Balls, and Ultra Balls all have different catch rates.
* Be patient: It can take a few tries to catch a Pokémon.
* Check your Pokédex: The Pokédex will tell you what Pokémon you can catch in each fishing spot.
Good luck catching all those Water-type Pokémon!
