The holes in the ice are quite small, so it can be difficult to cast into them. Standing close to the hole and casting a minimal distance is easiest.  It is possible to catch fish outside of the frozen lake, but these fish do not count towards the competition.

Standing close to the hole and casting a minimal distance is the easiest way to do this.  It is possible to catch fish outside of the frozen lake, in the forest pond and the forest river. Fish caught in the forest pond count towards the fishing competition, but those caught in the river do not.

The festival ends automatically after Mayor [[Lewis]] judges the fishing contest.

*Talking to Abigail at her snowman will result in her asking what the player thinks of her "snow goon." This may be a reference to a 1991 series of "Calvin and Hobbes" comic strips found in the [https://www.amazon.com/Attack-Deranged-Mutant-Killer-Monster/dp/0836218833/ Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons] collection, in which Calvin builds several mutant snowmen.

*Contest fish do not register as "caught" unless the animation showing the fish flying back to the player is completed. It is possible to catch the fifth fish just as time runs out (with the bar announcing a "perfect" catch) and still lose the contest because the fifth fish did not complete its flying animation.

*Fish caught during the festival don't give fishing experience.  Because of this, if the player has never fished, they'll see the fishing instructions every time they attempt to catch one.

*While the Wizard is normally inaccessible due to Linus' igloo, he does have dialogue specified in the game's data files: "Sneaking off to visit my weird tower? You're odd for a mundane."

 

*After initiating the fishing contest through Lewis, a player who moves directly to the rightmost accessible fishing spot and instantly casts a line too far for the fishing hole, will then be stuck in a state that looks like a combination of pulling on the rod and standing idly forward. Once begun, the bug holds the player in a state where no buttons can be pressed, and no fish will bite a "line" that was cast, rendering the event mini-game unplayable. After two minutes, the contest ends and play continues normally as if the player caught no fish.

** It's also possible to trigger this bug after a few casts rather than immediately, but it's not clear what exact circumstances trigger it (other than requiring the cast to be too far to hit the hole).

*A player who holds down a directional control while the fishing contest starts will not be provided with a fishing rod but will continue to be able to talk to the villagers, who all have the same dialogue as they do before the contest begins.
