'''Fishing''' is a game mechanic in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. It is unlocked after connecting [[Lottacoins Island]], which prompts a Concordian fisherman to give [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] a [[Fishing Rod]] and allow them to purchase baits from his fishing friend.

Both Mario and Luigi can be chosen to attempt fishing, responding to {{button|switch|A}} and {{button|switch|B}} respectively while reeling in the fish. According to the [[Snoutlet School]], this can influence the chance of certain fishes being caught.

This mechanic is mainly used to obtain various fishes, which can be either sold for a high price, or used as materials for workshop requests. Additionally, certain quests begin after fishing up message in bottles. One Treasurefish is required, among other items, to obtain the Seedle-ize [[Battle Plug]].

Certain fish can only be caught in some seas, requiring the [[Shipshape Island]] to be in that sea while fishing.

==Gameplay==
===Fishing===
In order to fish, the player must watch the window showing the bobber closely. Once a fish or an item is hooked, the surrounding water will ripple violently, and a speech bubble with exclamation mark will pop up (with the number of exclamation marks alluding to the hooked item's rarity), at which point, depending on which of the brothers is fishing, the player must press {{button|switch|A}} or {{button|switch|B}} as quickly as possible to reel it in. If too much time has passed, the fish escapes along with the bait used.

===Baits===
Baits are necessary items used for fishing, bought from the blue Concordian fisherman next to the fishing spot. There are three kinds of baits, and each has their own effects.
*'''Standard Bait:''' Costs 20 [[Coin|coins]] each; does not affect the drop rate in any way.
*'''Handcrafted Bait:''' Costs 30 coins each; makes it more likely to obtain fish needed for workshop requests.
*'''Rarest Bait:''' Costs 50 coins each; boasts a better chance to obtain fish with high sell prices.

===Rewards===
Below is a table of items that can be fished.
