When can I build bridges?
I built the story one, but I don't have the recipe to build a second, and I put one of my 3 house plans on a bit of land that is inaccessible without the pole.
Also, how many fence panels does crafting a fence panel get you?

How do you even get Stringfish and Sturgeon... haven't seen any and I've been fishing non-stop. Do I need to put bait at the specific locations? Also JFC at the southern one, whats with all that crazy fish lol, I should've picked southern hemisphere...

I've done about 40 Nook Miles Islands (doing between 6-10 a day) and only three of them have had an assortment different than my own island. :/

I've has two islands with pears and one island with bamboo.

Every other island has been cherries (my native fruit) and coconuts with either mums or tulips. The fish and insects have been the same as my native island. I've never seen anything different. It's starting to feel like a huge and tremendous waste of my time.

Is it possible the game has a system in place to prevent you from grinding too much? Otherwise someone could just keep traveling, do whatever they need there to rack up miles, travel again, travel again, travel again, and get every fruit and rare thing in one day.

They're very rare and need to be fished at those specific locations. It does not require bait but it obviously helps.

And I don't think you're thinking that through. I'm pretty sure most of those will be available all summer (June-September) for the North, while South had them for a week and a half and then not again till December...

Oh, so they are just swapping, got it.

Well, for the locations. English isn't my first language. Mouth probably means whhere it croses over to the sea, but I'm confused about clifftop. Is it at the highest point or what's the meaning of that?

I caught a sturgeon at the mouth of a river flowing into the ocean. It was a huge shadow. I would just thrown bait in that spot on your island. Haven't caught a stringfish yet

For clifftop, climb up to the highest point on your island with a ladder. The source of the waterfalls should be where you need to fish.

How early do you start getting stuff to change the ground textures outside, bricks or paths etc? Can only use rugs inside :(

You can custom make them in the patterns tool early on, but it's not the same as the more involved 'actual' path making they showed in the Direct. I don't know how long that takes to get, but you can get fencing by day six.

Decided to redeem some Nook air miles before tea. Fishing on a mystery island netted myselfl:

A Sturgeon
A Football fish
An Oarfish
And a Coelacanth

Unbelievable haul that I don't know whether to donate, sell or display. This game....
