Dace

The Dace is a fairly common fish that can be found swimming in rivers. It is worth 200 bells. Daces are moderately easy to catch and probably will not make a player win the Fishing Tourney due to its small size. Its appearance has changed throughout the games, with its winter apparel being present in all games except City Folk where it is adorned with its summer colors. Its abundance fluctuates throughout the year.

Donating to the Museum
As with all fish in the, the dace can be donated to the Museum by talking to Blathers, who will also give a small talk about it.

In Wild World
"I can't say I've ever seen this on a menu... To be honest, I can see why! It's rather bony...and one must consider the stench... No, none too appetizing."

In City Folk
"Most fishermen think of dace as a bit of a nuisance because they interfere with catching more desired fish. This fish cares not... During spawning season, the dace dons a bright orange stripe across its belly! Even nuisance fish get the urge to dress up and strut a bit, eh wot?"
