The Hylian Loach is a species of fish that appears in Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess. It is considered a legendary catch among anglers due to its profound rarity.
Ocarina of Time
- See also: Ocarina of Time Fishing Guide
The Hylian Loach makes its debut in Ocarina of Time, in which it is an occasional resident of the Fishing Pond. It can be encountered every fourth time that Link enters the area and pays the twenty-Rupee fee to fish. A single loach will appear when Link is in his adult form, and two will appear when he is a child. Furthermore, Link's age also determines 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.
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 appears once more in Twilight Princess, its revered status having remained unchanged. Individuals can be found at the Sacred Grove, the Lanayru Spring, the 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 article: Hena's Fishing Hole
Hena's Fishing Hole is subject to a seasonal cycle that advances each time 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.
