A '''Fishin' Lakitu''' (alternatively '''Fishing Lakitu'''<ref>Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Page 50.</ref>) is a variant of [[Lakitu]] found throughout the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]]. This Lakitu uses a fishing rod to hold up various objects, usually items or stoplights.

''[[Super Mario World]]'' marks the first appearance of Fishin' Lakitu. Only one appears in this game, in [[Forest of Illusion 4]]. In this game, the Fishin' Lakitu dangles a [[1-Up Mushroom]] from a fishing pole; should Mario grab the mushroom, it becomes a normal Lakitu and throws Spinies at Mario. Mario can defeat it the same way he can a normal Lakitu. It will respawn as a normal Lakitu from there on in.

[[File:LakituBroSM64.png|thumb|right|One of two Lakitu Bros. present in ''Super Mario 64'']]
No Fishin' Lakitus appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' outright; however, the [[Lakitu Bros.]], who have fishing poles with cameras on them, appear in the game as cameramen and exist mostly to explain how the camera works.

====''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
[[File:SMA4 Lakitu Sprite.png|thumb|left]]
In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', whenever the player wants to scan an [[e-Reader]] card, a Fishin' Lakitu will appear to whisk Mario away from wherever on the map he is on. This Lakitu has a slightly different appearance from the enemy Lakitus found in levels.
He goes unused in the European version due to all e-Reader content being removed. He also goes unused in Virtual Console releases due to all e-Reader levels being unlocked by default.

====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
[[File:SMO Lakitu Capture.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Mario controlling a Fishin' Lakitu]]
[[File:SMO - Sand Kingdom Lakitu Fishing.jpg|thumb|right|Mario in the Sand Kingdom controlling a Fishin' Lakitu.]]
Fishin' Lakitus (referred to simply as "Lakitus") return in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' as NPCs instead of enemies. They appear in the [[Sand Kingdom]], [[Lake Kingdom]], [[Snow Kingdom]], and [[Bowser's Kingdom]], and generally do not appear until all the main story [[Power Moon]]s have been collected for a kingdom (most notably, the Sand Kingdom's Lakitu is initially frozen). Mario can use [[Cappy]] to [[capture]] the Lakitu, who can slowly float with his cloud but is confined to a small area in each kingdom he appears in, and can fish for [[Cheep Cheep]]s in the water (or [[Poison (obstacle)|poison]] in Bowser's Kingdom), most of which give [[coin]]s after being reeled in. In the Lake Kingdom and Snow Kingdom, the biggest Cheep Cheep instead gives a [[Power Moon]]. In the Sand Kingdom, Mario can also fish [[Captain Toad]] out of sand, while in Bowser's Kingdom, he can fish for [[Poochy]]; reeling either of these in has them reward Mario with a Power Moon. If an enemy gets too close to the Lakitu when he is not captured, he will complain that he cannot fish under these conditions, regardless of whether Mario has captured the enemy in question or not. Otherwise, he sings a song about fishing when not captured. Lakitu is found at the [[Desert Oasis]] in the Sand Kingdom, the [[Courtyard (Lake Kingdom)|Courtyard]] in the Lake Kingdom, the southeastern corner of the [[Snow Kingdom]], and [[Beneath the Keep]] in Bowser's Kingdom.

===''Super Mario-Kun''===
[[File:Super_Mario_Kun_06_p039.jpg|thumb|right|Lakitu bonking Mario in Volume 6]]
A Fishin' Lakitu appeared in ''Mario Kart''-themed issues of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]'', generally serving the same role it does in those games. This one seems to be wilder than usual; most notably, it bonks Mario with the starting light at one point.
{{br|right}}
===''Mario Kart'' series===
A single Lakitu appears throughout the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]], billed in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''{{'}}s instruction manual as the owner of all the tracks. He uses his fishing pole to hold the starting lights (except in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'') and fish out racers who fall off the track. The action of falling off a track and being fished out incurs a considerable loss of time and often position, and in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', he also charges up to three [[coin]]s for fishing out a racer; however, if a racer does not have enough coins, he fishes out the racer anyway.
Starting with ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', he uses his pole to show the lap count as well as a U-turn sign when a driver is going the wrong way. In ''Mario Kart 8'', after about five seconds, he will also flip a driver so that they go in the right direction again.
''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' has an intro gag regarding the Fishin' Lakitu: he normally appears holding the starting light, but may sometimes appear with a Cheep Cheep that falls off the hook.

In most [[Mario Tennis (series)|''Mario Tennis'']] games, a Lakitu sits on one side of the net and uses his fishing pole to fish balls. In [[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|the Nintendo 64 ''Mario Tennis'']], he is only seen doing this when a player faults. In ''[[Mario's Tennis]]'', he shows the current score using his fishing pole, while in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', he uses the pole to show starting lights (recycled from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''), the score, and time left in various minigames.

Whenever the player [[Level up|levels up]], a Fishin' Lakitu appears with a selecting device that allows the player choose which stat they wish to add bonus points to (on top of the normal points gained while leveling up). Once selected, the device then flips over and becomes a roulette that determines how many points that stat will earn, from one to three. Fishin' Lakitus also appear in the final battle with [[Fawful]] in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', holding up spotlights.

Template:Species-infobox A Fishin' Lakitu (alternatively Fishing Lakitu[1]) is a variant of Lakitu that attacks via use of a fishing pole. Starting with Super Mario Kart, 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

Fishin' Lakitu's sprite for Super Mario World

Super Mario World marks the first appearance of Fishin' Lakitu. Only one appears in this game, in Forest of Illusion 4. In this game, the Fishin' Lakitu dangles a 1-Up Mushroom from a fishing pole; should Mario grab the mushroom, it becomes a normal Lakitu and throws Spinies at Mario. Mario 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.

Yoshi's Island series

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Fishing Lakitu

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake, they 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 Fishin' Lakitus fly away from Yoshi with their catch, making it harder to save him.

Yoshi's New Island

A Fishin' Lakitu from Yoshi's New Island

Fishin' Lakitu returns 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.
