Please help.....I cant seem to catch a fish with the Wii U Gamepad....I dont know what I am doing wrong. I see the Fish On but I cant seem to get the fish. Do I need to get a different control??
Are you letting go of the button you've assigned your fishing rod to when you see the "Fish On"? Because that's the only logical explanation I can think of. Once you hook a fish, you have to hold down the button until you reel it in.
Unless you're having trouble at the fishing hole near Lake Hylia, where the mechanics are a little different. You can take a guided tour with an NPC that will explain how to do it.
