Everything to know about the black bass in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
The black bass is one of the most commonly available fish types in the Animal Crossing franchise.
Incidentally, the black bass has appeared in every title in the Animal Crossing franchise. However, prior to Wild World, the black bass was divided into three types: the black bass, the small bass, and the large bass. This made it the only Animal Crossing species that could be classified as three different fish.
Despite its name, the black bass is a muddy green-colored fish in reality. The fish is available in every river on an Animal Crossing island and is not very rare. It is 60 cm in size and has a large shadow, making it easier to spot than other fish.
