Bobber Machine route modules

6 guides

Location / Fish Shop, right-side machine, Spring 2 access, and Willy shop routing

Fish Shop Machine Location

鱼店机器位置

The Bobber Machine sits on the right side of Willy's Fish Shop. Use it whenever a beach errand, Fish Shop purchase, crab pot route, rod upgrade, or Ginger Island boat stop already brings the day through the docks.

Collection / Default style, 2 new fish per style, 39 total styles, and 76 fish completion

Bobber Style Unlock Progression

浮标样式解锁进度

Only the default bobber is available at the start. A new style unlocks each time the player catches 2 new fish, and all 39 styles require 76 different fish.

Cosmetic / Specific style selection, randomized option, and fishing line color changes

Randomized Bobbers and Line Colors

随机浮标与鱼线颜色

The machine can select a specific bobber style or a randomized option that chooses an unlocked style for each cast. Bobbers can also change the color of the fishing line.

Secret / Bonus bobber style from Lucky Purple Shorts in a fishing rod tackle slot

Lucky Purple Shorts Bonus Style

幸运紫短裤额外样式

An additional bobber style can be unlocked by putting Lucky Purple Shorts in the tackle slot of a fishing rod, making the machine a small Secret Notes and Mayor's Manor overlap for collectors.

Route / 76 different fish, Fish Finder, Magic Bait, Targeted Bait, and Advanced Iridium Rod

Fish Collection Route

鱼类收集路线

Bobber Machine completion is a fishing collection route in disguise. Use fish finder tools, Magic Bait, Targeted Bait, seasonal hubs, mine fish, island fish, and Advanced Iridium Rod loadouts to push toward 76 different fish.

Comfort / Readable bobbers, water color, fishing line color, screenshots, and long-session comfort

Visual and Accessibility Planning

视觉与可读性规划

Bobber Machine choices are cosmetic, but they still affect readability. For long fishing sessions, pick a bobber and line color that stands out against the water and avoids confusing treasure, bubbles, and casting targets.
