It helps with rotating the fish out from the pool of all fish types available for the current season.
Nope.

That said, I caught my Blue Marlin by using bait on the pier simply to get the fish to pop. Otherwise, every other rare fish I've caught has been random no-bait runs.
Certain fish are only available at certain locations. Examples include the dock, the mountain lake, and the river delta. Bait does not affect what type of fish you catch, rather it allows you to repeatedly spawn fish from the available pool at specific location.

Example: use bait repeatedly at the mountain lake when trying to catch string fish.

nice. All these are helpful. Thanks y'all.

Caught Daisy just minutes before she left, bought 50 turnips for 102. Hoping I can sell them for at least double because I still need to pay off my second house loan.

The technique you used to identify what shadow to look for is wrong. If you see a large fish, you need to keep tossing the bait until you see a larger fish than that large fish.

The shadow to look for has to be as large as your thumb's nail width, if you put your thumb on the screen. I had my stringfish on the 73rd bait though.
Oh so it's larger than large? I need to look this up again.

Just built the house for my first campsite visitor. Now Nook is letting me allocate more house plots at 10,000 a pop. How many houses do I max out at? Just want to plan so I can spread them out properly. Also, are there any other non-house buildings after Able Sisters?

Do I understand you correctly that with every subsequent bait drop you increase the size of the shadow?

How do I only have a 1 star rating? I've got no weeds and I have flowers fucking everywhere. Apparently you need to put furniture outside to increase your rating but I don't feel as if I have a lot of room to pit more shit. I don't want to throw furniture around randomly outside but I lack the creativity a lot of people seem to have.

My island's suddenly taking ages to load and about as long to save as pre-patch Stardew Valley which is to say "forever".

How? Did you just fill every square with trees?

Infrastructure builds are so frustrating right now. I want an incline here but it won't let me:

I know the ramp will fit with room to spare. The only thing there isn't enough space for is Lloid to collect the money. So I'll eventually have to dig into the side of the cliff just to make space for Lloid who will be gone the following day :/

Also have loads of spots where I want to build bridges but I can't as there's a slight kink on the river bank. Terraforming can't come soon enough!

Uh guys, I asked this for a few times now but got no response.

Does the fencing you get from Nook require a recipe if you want more or are you supposed to get it from Nook? Because I didn't.

Also I bought a DIY thing from the shop, but need an iron wood dresser and a cutton board for the kitchen thing. I don't have recipes for either. Is it normal that you can buy recipes from the shop without being able to craft everything that's needed for it?

As someone who was time traveling a little bit, I feel like I should note to you guys that the Tarantula Island trick stops working in April.

In April, Giant Water Bugs start to spawn in lakes and rivers and there's no way to get rid of them other than catching them so if you want to take advantage of the exploit without Time Traveling, now is the time.

If anyone is interested I have turnips at 90 Bells each on my island. DoDo code is D77YR.
I could use some peaches and oranges if anyone has them. Feel free to stop by. My island looks like crap right now so don't judge too harshly!

Going to stop by really quick and grab some turnips at 90! I'll drop some peaches.

Lol, is it unreasonable to expect people to be awake my noon?
People can have other things they need to do besides playing the game and sleeping, too.

There's no good reason for it to be limited to a 6 hour window, especially not one that starts at 6am. You can't sell them until Monday anyway, so buying should be available all Sunday.

I finally managed to get my Pac-man town theme with some help!

Nooknet - Island Tune Creator

This handy tool allows you to test & create the perfect Island Tune for your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island!
Neat little site, though browsing is broken on all my browsers. I need to update mine, I don't know if I'll be able to fit enough of Bubble Bobble in to make it worthwhile, or do a Zelda or final fantasy

Yes you need to buy it yourself and yes

I posted earlier it was a bit of a challenge for me. I mostly play at night because I'm a single parent, and my toddler, bless him, he loves to play animal crossing, but it largely consists of hitting the screenshot and home button, constantly closing the software, and just generally not allowing me to get much done. If I try to take the switch he'll get mad and want to start acting destructive so I have to put the switch away. So I sure appreciate Nintendo's arbitrary time limits.

Dropped off peaches and oranges by the plaza.

Got myself some Air Jordan Royal Blues and the Bathroom Sink.
