-'''Hylian Loaches''' are a type of [[fish]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''.
+The '''Hylian Loach''' is a species of [[fish]] that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. It is considered a legendary catch among anglers due to its profound rarity.
 ==''Ocarina of Time''==
-The Hylian Loach makes its debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. It is found near the lilypads in the [[Fishing Pond]] both as a child and an adult. It can only be caught when using the [[Sinking Lure]]. [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] has to pinpoint the lure between the Loach and the center of the pond. Once every minute or so the loach swims to the center of the pond; behaviour that gives Link his best opportunity to catch it. The loach cannot be used to set records.
+{{see also|Ocarina of Time Fishing Guide}}
+The Hylian Loach makes its debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', in which it is an occasional resident of the [[Fishing Pond]]. It can be encountered every fourth time that [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] enters the area and pays the twenty-[[Rupee]] fee to fish. A single loach will appear if Link is in his adult form, and two will appear if he is a child. Also dependent on Link's age is how heavy the loach is when caught, its initial location in the pond, and whether or not he can make use of the [[Sinking Lure]].
-As a child, it can weigh over 15 pounds, and as an adult it weighs over 30 pounds.
+Presenting a Hylian Loach to the [[Fishing Hole Man]] elicits a very enthusiastic response over Link's rare catch, yielding a prize of fifty Rupees.
 ==''Twilight Princess''==
-The Hylian Loach in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is found in [[Hena's Fishing Hole]] around the lilypads, which are located at the back cave only in the summer, (the season changes every time [[Link (Twilight Princess)|Link]] exits and re-enters the area), same as it were in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. This time around, Link has to use the [[Frog Lure]] or the [[Sinking Lure]] in order to catch it. The Hylian Loach may also be found in the [[Graveyard (Twilight Princess)|Kakariko Graveyard]], [[Sacred Grove]], or [[Lanayru Spring]] as a smaller fish (around 15 inches). If caught in the Fishing Hole, it may be as large as 30 inches.
+The Hylian Loach appears once more in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', its revered status having remained unchanged. Individuals can be found at the [[Sacred Grove]], the [[Lanayru Spring]], the [[Graveyard (Twilight Princess)|Graveyard]], and [[Hena's Fishing Hole]]. The latter of these locations is the most notable, as Hylian Loaches caught at Hena's Fishing Hole can achieve sizes much larger than that of their counterparts elsewhere.
+===Hena's Fishing Hole===
+{{Main|Hena's Fishing Hole}}
+Hena's Fishing Hole is subject to a seasonal cycle that advances each time [[Link (Twilight Princess)|Link]] enters the area—the Hylian Loach only appears in summer. A singular loach resides in the very northern portion of the pond, distinct for its many lily pads. Link can use the [[Frog Lure]] or the [[Sinking Lure]] to aid in his capture of the Hylian Loach, but it can also be caught using the standard lure.
+Catching a Hylian Loach while in the presence of Hena results in a display of her bewilderment, dubbing Link a "Fish Master." After returning to land, Hena mounts a photo to her wall of Link holding his big catch.
