Animal Crossing New Horizons January Fishing Guide
Like all previous Animal Crossing games, the variety of fish available to catch in Animal Crossing: New Horizons rotates out throughout the year. This guide presents information on which fish are available with the most important information first: which fish won't be available after the end of the month and which fish are now available starting with this month. Looking for a complete list of fish available in the game? Look no further than our Animal Crossing New Horizons fish guide.
