I opened my mailbox and unfortunately found a goodbye letter…from Octavian. I liked Octavian, and it’s too bad that he couldn’t stick around longer. Besides, he is the only octopus character in the game.
I went around town pulling weeds. As usual, Maple was outside sleeping. So I tried to catch some Z’s.
She didn’t appreciate it. But I continued on. Once I pulled enough weeds to restore perfect town status, I went fishing. In early September, there are no sea bass (or jellyfish) in the ocean. That means if you fish in the ocean, every fish you catch will be worth at least 3,000 bells! You do have to avoid the acre with the mouth of the river though, because you will still catch some river fish there. But fish in the other four ocean acres, and you will make a LOT of money. The sea bass gradually start to return around the 11th or 12th, but the fishing is still great until mid-month.
Unfortunately, Nook’s was already closed when I played tonight, so I didn’t fish as long as I wanted. But I did catch nine red snappers and two barred knifejaws, for a total of 37,000 bells.
After that, I went to visit K.K. before I ended my night. I asked him for a random song, and he performed K.K. Safari for me. My pockets were full of stinky fish, so he couldn’t give me the aircheck. But that’s okay, I didn’t need it anyway.
