List of fish in New Leaf

From Nookipedia, the Animal Crossing wiki

The following is a list of fish in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

The total number of fish in New Leaf is 72, 8 more than the number of fish in Animal Crossing: City Folk. The octopus and the lobster from City Folk were changed into sea creatures, and the jellyfish appears as hazard while swimming and cannot be caught. Newly added fish in New Leaf include the soft-shelled turtle, tadpole, mitten crab, nibble fish, saddled bichir, blowfish, ribbon eel, giant trevally, saw shark, and oarfish.

Various fish can be found on Tortimer Island (indicated by Coconut WW Inv Icon.png). Additionally, some fish can only be caught on Tortimer Island.
