Fish

Fish are objects that can be obtained through the fishing minigame done by clicking on a body of water while holding the fishing rod item. Fish cannot be kept after they are caught, and the score attributed to them is purely a means of measuring how valuable the fish is. Fishing is only a way to while away time and serves no real benefit to the player. There are a total of 30 fish currently obtainable in the game, and it is unknown how many future fish could be added.

List of Fishes
The Troll Fish is a plain white misdrawing with the troll face image plastered on it. It is the only fish with a score penalty. The description is a reference to the "we do a little bit of trollin'" meme.

The Car Battery is an image of a Bosch-brand car battery. The description draws attention to the fact that a car battery drawn up from underwater would indeed be dangerous.

The Plastic Fish is a toy bun figurine. The description reaffirms that this is just an inanimate object made entirely out of plastic.



The Fire Alarm is an upside-down image of a fire alarm. This is entirely natural.

The Bottled Cirno is a Cirno fumo trapped in a plastic bottle, an image that has gone somewhat viral online. The brownish color on the bottom of the bottle is a remnant of the brown desk the bottle sat on. A 3D model of the Bottled Cirno is always floating in the swimming pool, but it cannot be collected.



The Fumo in a Chip Can, like the Bottled Cirno, is a cropped portion of a popular image, being a Koishi fumo in a Pringles can. Because it is in a can once full of potato chips, the description calls attention to the lingering smell of potatoes.

The Tambaqui, also known as a pacu or cachama, is a real-world freshwater fish in the serrasalmidae family. It is the only fish to still be a member of Colossoma. It is native to South America, where it is the heaviest characin of the region (second heaviest scaled fish, after the arapaima). Unlike more predatory species, the tambaqui features molar-like teeth, used for crushing seeds and nuts.

The Chimp is a plastic toy monkey, likely a Lego figurine. It is not sentient, but the description still calls attention to the fact that chimps do not have gills or any form of water filtration and will drown if submerged underwater.



The Icebox is a box full of ice meant to store fish, although only one fish is inside.



The Radio is a golden music-playing device with some level of water resistance. The description states that music is still barely emitting from the machine.

The Ophidion, of the ophidiidae family, is a genus of cusk-eels. The species featured in Become Fumo is likely an ophidion josephi.



The Rat is a low-poly model of a rat. It originates from Jerma's "The Rat Movie", of which this model was commonly attributed to the "Giant Rat". The description is a reference to the film's popular song, of which it is the song's final line.



The Funny Fishe is a yellow pufferfish. It is a recolored version of the popular pufferfish meme, in which a pufferfish, before being killed for a dish, was being fed carrot pieces, prompting it to make a strange noise. The recolor itself is meant to make the fish resemble the iconic default yellow Roblox avatar, likely because the "oof" noise of a Roblox character's death resembles the noise of the pufferfish. The smiley face in the description is likely further referencing this. The "fishe" spelling is a piece of internet colloquialism that is repeated on other Become Fumo fish.

The Waga is a fish meant to slightly resemble Wagasakihime, while still being a realistic fish. The description pokes fun at this concept, referring to Wagasaki as "the funny fish", just like the Wagasakihime catch itself.



The... what is this?

The Nemoid is a plush clownfish meant to evoke the image of Pixar movie character Nemo, with the clear distinction that the face of the plush is horribly disfigured, with human teeth. The description reinforces the idea that the fish has been malformed in some way.



The Beefy Computer is an image of a large computer, which is spotless despite being sunken. The description is a reference to the "can it run Doom?" meme.



The Greenback Cutthroat Trout is a real-life fish, though it is the only real fish featured in Become Fumo which uses a drawn image instead of a cropped photo. The description references that the greenback cutthroat trout was adopted as the state fish of Colorado, USA in 1994. "Hamburger Gensokyo" is simply a means of referencing the USA through the stereotype that Americans are obsessed with hamburgers. The greenback cutthroat trout can grow as large as 4.5 kilograms. It was on the endangered species list, but is now only threatened.

Le Fishe is an undefined real life fish, using the "fishe" colloquialism, and using the Spanish form of "the", which is a common word attributed to memes.

The Jorunna parva, or sea bunny (what the description references), is a gastropod mollusc that resembles a rabbit, which caused a surge in popularity in Japan during 2015. The papillae covering its body are used for sensory functions, resembling fur. It feeds on sponges in the Chalinidae family.





The Crate of Kippers is, as the name implies, a box stuffed full of kipper fish.

The whel is a very low quality crop of a blue whale, with the meme phrase "man" as the sole description.



The Tenfish is a catfish with Tenshi's hat photoshopped on, hence the name.



The I-400 Class Submarine is a type of Imperial Japanese Navy submarine, the largest of World War II, and largest ever built until the creation of ballistic missile submarines in the 1960s. The coordinates listed in the description are in the Second Kuril Strait in Sakhalin Oblast, Russia.



Sekibanki? is the detached head of the character Sekibanki, who looks embarrassed. The character can indeed detach her own head safely, and because the description calls her "clumsy", it is likely that she dropped her own head underwater by accident.



The Baku Sheep is a cartoon sheep with large blue eyes, rabbit-like ears, and Zs floating over it to give the impression of sleeping (despite having an eye open).

The Giant Catfish is a Touhou character introduced in Touhou Hisoutensoku. The description references the fact that it was featured in Hong Meiling's dream, where it sent assassins resembling familiar characters at the Chinese girl.

Ionia is a fumo based on creator scary08's real life acquaintance. Ionia may not be the highest scored fish, but is the rarest catch in the game.

The Queen Ratfish is a striped fish with Nazrin's head imposed on it, wearing a tiny gold crown on one ear. Nazrin is a very popular character in the fanbase, hence her status as the "rat queen".



Wagasakihime is a Touhou character described as the "funny fish" (no relation to Funny Fishe). The "real!!!" likely exists to specify that this is the true Wagasaki, as opposed to the Waga.
