Hylian Loach in the OOT Remake
The Hylian Loach is the rare fish in Lake Hylia’s Fishing Pond. Nintendo Everything reports that it is present in the Switch 2 remake. The sinking lure can help reach fish that stay deep, but fish caught with it do not qualify for the pond’s standard prizes.
The heart-piece and Golden Scale prizes are separate from catching the loach. Older guides describe weights in pounds and a 20-rupee entry fee. Remake guides use length measurements and distinguish the child and adult fees, so those old numbers are not used as remake requirements here.
A verified remake loach weight and special reward are not available in the cited coverage, so those fields are left empty. Games.gg and QuestFern both separate the rare fish from the normal prize targets. The exact spawning interval from the original is also not presented as a remake rule.
