One of the most expensive [[ocean]] [[fish]], the '''Blue Marlin''', despite appearing all the time in late summer, is actually very hard to find. Selling for 10,000 Bells, this fish resembles a swordfish. It has a long, pointed extension of its mouth. The fish can be found all day and has a large shadow size.

The '''blue marlin''' is a rare [[fish]] with a huge shadow size in the {{SER}} introduced in {{DnMe+}} and appearing in all subsequent games. It is one of the most expensive sea fish, selling for {{Currency|Bells|10000}}.
  
==Donating to the Museum==
+
In all games it appears in, the blue marlin can be caught all day with a huge shadow size. In the first-generation games, it can only be caught off the coast of [[Animal Island]], but appears year-round. In {{WW|short}}, it appears in the sea from [[summer]] to early [[fall]] - this was cut to mid summer to early fall in {{CF|short}} and {{NL|short}}. In {{NH|short}}, it instead appears exclusively off the [[pier]] from mid summer to early fall, and appears again from late fall to mid [[spring]].
When placed in the [[museum]] in all games, the fish goes in the very back tank and zips around very quickly.

[[Blathers]] will talk about the blue marlin when donated:
 
  
"''Hootie hoo, what a magnificent fish! Look at that sleek, hornlike bill! This fish is quite fast, said to be capable of reaching speeds of up to 62 miles per hour... A regular oceanic speed demon, wot? If you get in its way, beware! It might not be able to stop in time!''"

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
The Animal Crossing blue marlin is actually the Atlantic variation. In the wild, it uses its big spear-like snout to attack fish and cepapholods that it may eat, such as [[tuna]] and [[squid]]. Represented in-game by the fact that it only appears in summer, the Atlantic blue marlin generally stays in the area of ocean south of Spain but north of South Africa. There are many names for this fish such as billfish, ocean guard, and Cuban black marlin.

The blue marlin is a rare fish with a huge shadow size in the Animal Crossing series introduced in Doubutsu no Mori e+ and appearing in all subsequent games. It is one of the most expensive sea fish, selling for  10,000 Bells.

In all games it appears in, the blue marlin can be caught all day with a huge shadow size. In the first-generation games, it can only be caught off the coast of Animal Island, but appears year-round. In Wild World, it appears in the sea from summer to early fall - this was cut to mid summer to early fall in City Folk and New Leaf. In New Horizons, it instead appears exclusively off the pier from mid summer to early fall, and appears again from late fall to mid spring.

Donating to the museum[edit]

When placed in the museum in all games, the fish goes in the very back tank and zips around very quickly.

In Doubutsu no Mori e+[edit]


In Wild World[edit]

Blathers says this about the blue marlin when donated:

"To be honest, this is the first time that I've seen a proper blue marlin, wot wot! As you can see, its bill is quite dangerous. Every year people are injured by them. Still, how can one complain? If you were to drag me out of the museum one night... I assure you, I would give you a pecking you'd not soon forget, hoo!"

Blathers will talk about the blue marlin when donated dialogue.

In City Folk[edit]

"Hootie hoo, what a magnificent fish! Look at that sleek, hornlike bill! This fish is quite fast, said to be capable of reaching speeds of up to 62 miles (100 kilometers) per hour... A regular oceanic speed demon, wot? If you get in its way, beware! It might not be able to stop in time!"

In New Leaf[edit]

"Blue marlins are famous for their long, swordlike noses that give them the nickname 'swordfish.' They use their 'swords' to knock out their prey before capture, not skewering it as you'd think. Able to swim at speeds above 60 mph, their speed and power make them a true test for any angler."

In New Horizons[edit]

When donating to Blathers or selecting "Tell me about this!" in New Horizons, he will provide the following information about the fish:

"The blue marlin has a distinctive angular shape and no scales. It is an unusual relative of the tuna. These mighty fish can exceed 13 feet from bill to tail. Some accounts even have it fighting with whales! No wonder it's a popular target for sport fishing: unlike most fish, it seems like a worthy opponent."

The Blue Marlin can be found in the large, vertical fish tank in the rightmost room in the aquarium.

Fishing Tourney[edit]

During a Fishing Tourney, when given a blue marlin, Chip will say the following dialogue.

In City Folk[edit]

"Boy, I don't care what color blue marlin is as long as it's in my belly! Nyuuuk nyuk nyuk nyuk!"

In New Leaf[edit]

"Of course, blue marlin are a bit too big to grill in just one piece. Unless you're experienced like me. Well, I think I'm just gonna tuck into this guy, no preparation needed! Behold my fish-eating skill! YUM!"
