Fish Up Eggs From 9am ~ 4pm

If you are looking for an efficient way to fish up Water eggs, our recommendation is to go fishing between 9am to 4pm. In the Northern Hemisphere, there are no fish with a medium-sized shadow in the river during this time, so you can be sure that all such shadows are Water Eggs!

On April 12th only, you'll be able to exchange 3 unwanted eggs of same type for one different type egg of your choice. Gather eggs that are easy to find as much as possible and exchange them on April 12th.
Get More Eggs At Mystery Island Tour

If you need additional eggs, you can always get new eggs by attending mystery island tours. You'll need a Nook Miles Ticket to do so.
