Suffering with C.J... | Animal Crossing New Horizons #26

Hi everyone!

Today I'm going to be going the fishing tourney in Animal Crossing! The host of fishing tourney in New Horizons is Chip Junior (C.J.), but in every other animal crossing game in the past, the host is Chip. If you know me well, I like Chip better, but you can have your own opinion.

Now if you know know who C.J. is...

C.J. is a fat blue-eyed beaver. He has visible freckles and pronounced eyebrows, along with yellow hair.

His outfit consists of a white t-shirt with a hood, as well as a yellow and black puffer vest. He wears a matching black and yellow backwards cap, and a dark pair of sunglasses. The hat shows an emblem that matches the one on his partner and roommate, Flick's.

In New Horizons
During Fishing Tourneys or random visits, C.J. will buy fish from the player for 150% of their usual value. (Commissions cannot be accepted on tourney days). Two tourneys will be held in Spring and Winter where players have three minutes to catch as many fish as possible. Points will be earned towards the prize pool where two bonus points will be gained if you catch over three in total. After the three minutes are up you can repeat the process by selling the fish in your cooler. Every milestone of 100 points C.J. will reward the player with a trophy until the gold is earned at 300. For every ten points you're able to trade it for fish swag which comes in special event items and accessories. During his random visits, C.J. will not buy the player's fish until they have completed a "seasports" challenge which entails catching three fish within a specific size range in a row. Occasionally, he'll let the player catch whatever fish they like, as long as there are 5 of them. C.J. will also offer to have his partner Flick make a fish model if the player brings him three of the same fish. Only one fish model can be commissioned at a time, and the completed model will be mailed to the player the next day.

C.J. and Flick are roommates and partners. As an artist, he helps C.J. build his streaming audience by providing stellar art to dedicated anglers. However, Flick's true artistic muse is the world of entomology.

When C.J. visits the Deserted Island outside of a Fishing Tourney, he will remain the full day, from 5 a.m to 5 a.m the next day.

In Pocket Camp
C.J. was added to Pocket Camp in November 2020 to replace Chip in Fishing Tourneys. In his first fishing tourney, he hosts the Fintastic event, a Fishing Tourney where the player can catch Barreleye, Mahi-Mahi, and Umbrella Octopuses. One of the rewards also acts as a special furniture.
