Selling Fish to C.J.

Learn how to make big Bells by selling fish to C.J. in Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Discover his visit schedule, the Fishing Tourney, and how to get fish models.

Hey there! So, you've been doing some serious fishing in Animal Crossing: New Horizons and wondering how to turn those catches into a mountain of Bells? Let's talk about C.J., your go-to guy for making bank with your fishy finds.

C.J. is this super enthusiastic fishing fan who pops by your island every couple of weeks. When he's around, he'll buy any fish you've caught for 1.5 times their normal price. Seriously, if you've been hoarding a bunch of valuable fish, C.J.'s visit is the perfect time to cash in. We're talking potentially huge profits!

But wait, there's more! Just like Flick with bugs, C.J. also offers a cool service: he can make replica models of your favorite fish. If you bring him three of the exact same type of fish, he'll mail you a model of it the very next day. Keep in mind, these fish models aren't quite as fancy as the insect models Flick makes, but they're still a neat way to show off your fishing prowess.

And mark your calendar! On the second Saturday of January, April, July, and October, C.J. hosts a special seasonal Fishing Tourney. It's a blast, and a lot of your villagers will be out there trying their luck too. If you want the full scoop on how to join the tourney, you'll want to check out the dedicated page for it.
