To get the Fishing rod, you must talk to the fisherman guy in Dewford Town, he will give you one so that you can go fishing.
to get the fishing rod you need to go to Bannan Island in the north west corner of the map and talk to the guy in the house at the top he will say that he has spent his life looking for mermaids. to get the fishing pole go outside of his house and kill every single monster on that side of the island the mermaid will appear hit her with your boomerang and she will talk to you tell her about the guy and she will say she is going to talk to him. Then go talk to the guy. :) Mattmastersword If you're still clueless the *Guy* is Linebeck, after you talk to him go back to the other dude and you will see the mermaid in the Swimming pool and the guy looking for her will say that he is giving up fishing now and gives you his fishing rod.
Do you mean Twilight Princess? You'll need the fishing rod and catch a fish in front of it
go to the old harbour and talk to the guy that is sitting on the bench and find his fishing rod in the jungle cave were the middle door is.
exit mauville, go right, cross the river, and talk to the loser fishing guy. he will give you a good rod. to get a super rod, go to mossdeep,(or the town with the space center, whatever it is.)and find a house next to the cliff, and in one of them, there is a guy with a super rod.
You get on an island but first you have to help some guy in the forest
