In ''Twilight Princess'', Skullfish appear in the [[Lakebed Temple]]. Like in ''Majora's Mask'', they will follow [[Link Link and try to attack him by biting him. These creatures tend to appear in small groups. They are easily defeated using the [[Clawshot]] or the [[Hero's Bow]]. Since Link has limited speed and abilities while underwater, Skullfish are much easier to defeat with projectile weapons from the surface.

Since Link has limited speed and abilities while underwater, Skullfish are much easier to defeat with projectile weapons from the surface.


Link can use his [[Fishing Rod]] to catch a Skullfish, but they are considered forbidden fish and they are not recorded within Link's [[Fish Journal]].{{Ref|TP|2085|NA}} However, the game does keep a hidden record of the biggest Skullfish that Link has caught. These fish are some of the easiest fish to catch and each time Link catches one, they will leave behind a [[Recovery Heart]] for Link to collect. Since Link cannot keep the fish, it will then flop around on land and they are very easy to defeat.
