Fish


 * Not to be confused with the fishing event boss.

Fish are a type of monster that appear in lakes and can only be found by fishing.

In order to catch a fish, a player needs to meet the prerequisite in fishing skill, which differs for each fish and lake. The lake near Kirito and Asuna's log house contains the local-god fish, making it the most difficult lake for fishing.

After getting married and moving to the 22nd Floor with Asuna, Kirito wanted to fish at a local lake. But he was later told that the lake he picked to fish in had a monster, the local fish god, which greatly increased the difficulty in fishing in the lake, so he was not able to catch any fish. Later, Nishida, an old, experienced fisherman, helped him out. With that, Kirito helped fish out and defeat the monster of the area.
