Fishin' Lakitu (alternatively Fishing Lakitu[1][2]) is a variant of Lakitu that attacks via use of a fishing pole. It has become common for standard Lakitus to also be depicted with fishing poles, though they generally use them for helpful purposes.
History
Super Mario World
Super Mario World is the first appearance of Fishin' Lakitus. Only Fishin' Lakitu ever appears, in Forest of Illusion 4. The Fishin' Lakitu dangles a 1-Up Mushroom from a fishing pole; when Mario or Luigi grabs the mushroom, it becomes a normal Lakitu and throws Spinies at him. Mario or Luigi can defeat it the same way he can a normal Lakitu. It will respawn as a normal Lakitu from there on in.
This game also introduces ghostly versions known as Fishin' Boos.
Mario Kart series
- Main article: Lakitu (Mario Kart referee)
Throughout the Mario Kart series, a Fishin' Lakitu appears as a referee for the races, serving various roles.
Yoshi's Island series
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3
In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its Game Boy Advance version, Fishing Lakitus are present only in Hookbill The Koopa's Castle, where they attempt to steal Baby Mario from Yoshi's back with a baitless fishing pole ending in a hook. If they snatch Baby Mario, the Countdown Timer will start. However, these Fishing Lakitus fly away from Yoshi with their catch, making it harder to save him.
Yoshi's New Island
Fishin' Lakitus return in Yoshi's New Island, unchanged from their appearance and abilities in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
A Fishin' Lakitu appears in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars in Rose Way on the overworld, but not in battle as it is too high to reach. This Lakitu uses Shy Guys as bait.
Super Smash Bros. series
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Super Mario World incarnation of Fishin' Lakitu appears in the Super Mario World-themed Yoshi's Island stage.
Merchandise
Artwork of a Fishin' Lakitu can be seen on a Nintendo poster offered by Kellogg's as a promotion for Cinnamon Mini Buns. This artwork is based on promotional artwork from Super Mario World and depicts the Fishin' Lakitu dangling a mushroom.

- Shogakukan guide: 雲の上からつり針をたらし、赤ちゃんをさらってしまう。攻撃は最大の防御。[3] (It dangles a hook from its cloud and snatches the baby. Attack is the best defense.)
- Player's Guide: Always angling for a catch, these cloud-riders should be busted for fishing without a license.[2]
- Shogakukan guide (Game Boy Advance version): 雲の上からつり針をたらし、赤ちゃんをさらってしまう。倒し方はジュゲムと同じで、雲に乗ることもできるぞ。[4] (It dangles a hook from its cloud and snatches the baby. The way to beat it is the same as Lakitu, and you can also ride on its cloud.)
Yoshi's New Island
- Shogakukan guide: 雲に乗って空を漂い、釣りざおでべビィマリオを釣り上げようとする。見かけたらタマゴを当てて早めに倒そう。ジュゲムと同様に、本体を倒すと雲が残る。[5](They drift through the sky on a cloud and try to catch Baby Mario with their fishing rod. When you see it, hit it with an egg to defeat it as soon as possible. Like Lakitu, the cloud will remain after the main body is defeated.)
