April is almost here, which means Animal Crossing: New Horizons players are eager to experience their first wildlife and fish rotation. Although many fish stick around for most (or all) of the year, there are a handful of new fish and amphibians that start to appear at the beginning of April. Some players may just be wrapping their heads around which fish to catch during the day, but a change is already about to arrive.
The appearance of new fish means that Animal Crossing: New Horizons players have a number of new chances to gather exhibits for the aquarium section of the island's museum, find rare fish to sell for lots of Bells, or just have a good time encountering some new creatures. There are a lot of fish who will be around during April, but luckily we've got a full list to help remove some of the confusion about what is actually available.
AC players who would prefer to be surprised as they fish this month may want to stop reading here, if they would consider a full list of available swimmers spoiler territory. Consider this the final spoiler warning for the April fish list...
April's list is full of some exciting new additions that should definitely help motivate players to sign in daily and head out to the water. There are just a small handful of creatures who are only available during a limited time of the day, so most of this fishing can be done at any time. That said, jumping in the game and picking up some snapping turtles between 9pm and 4am is definitely going to be well worth the effort with that 5,000 Bells selling price (especially if they're saving up for one of the most expensive items in the series). And every museum needs a live snapping turtle exhibit, right?
There may be some additional changes to the list as events unfold this month, but for now these are all of the new fish that players should concentrate on. Good luck, islander dwellers!
