In {{PG}} during [[June]], [[Chip]] the beaver will host a fishing tournament every Sunday where you can win furniture for record-breaking [[fish]]. Chip will give you a prize for every fish you turn in to him that beats the previous record for the day. Start with your smallest fish first in order to maximize the loot. If you plan to fish on the day of the tourney, wake up early in the morning when the big fish are biting. However, fish caught before the tourney can also be turned over to Chip for prizes. It's a good idea to store fish in advance of the Tourney. If you have the record at the end of the day you will receive an additional gift in the mail. Talk to [[Tortimer]] at any time during the Tourney to recieve the [[Mementos & Models|Angler Trophy]].

If at 6 P.M., players still have the largest fish caught, they win the Fish Trophy, which is mailed to them.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

The Fishing Tourney is slightly different compared to the last games in New Leaf. The heights of the fish are automatically recorded as part of the new updates in the game. Fish can be submitted to Chip from 9 A.M. to 6 P.M. There will be a plinth inside Chip's tent. When the winners are announced inside the tent, the winners will stand on the first, second and third stands on the plinth. During the winners are announcements, they will let off party poppers and Chip will give each person an award (i.e. a trophy) according to his or her position. The awards ceremony must take place before 9 P.M. or else it will be canceled, and trophies will be mailed.
