'''Fishing Boos''' (alternatively '''Fishin' Boos''') are ghostly [[Fishin' Lakitu]]s that ride a cloud without a face. They attempt to hit the player character with a blue flame at the end of their fishing lines. The name "Fishin' Boo" was localized from an early Japanese name, "Fishing Telesa".<ref>{{cite|author=TCRF|title=[[tcrf:Prerelease:Super Mario World (SNES)/Background Graphics and Tilemaps#Enemy Cast List|Prerelease:Super Mario World (SNES)/Background Graphics and Tilemaps § Enemy Cast List]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=August 6, 2020|language=en}}</ref>

==History==
'''Fishin' Boos''' are the spirits of [[Fishin' Lakitu]] found in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. They carry a fishing rod and ride a [[Lakitu's Cloud]], much like the living variety. However, instead of a 1-Up Mushroom, Fishin' Boos carry a blue flame and follow Mario or Luigi in a way that makes it hard for them to [[Jump]]. Their clouds also do not have faces. A Fishin' Boo has the same immunities as a normal Boo and therefore cannot be jumped on.
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario World''====

Fishin' Boos are enemies in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They are encountered in [[Choco-Ghost House]] only. Fishin' Boos carry a fishing rod and ride a cloud similar to [[Lakitu's Cloud]] but lacking the face. Fishin' Boos carry a blue flame from their fishing pole and try to hinder the player's jumping ability. Fishin' Boos have the same invulnerabilities as a normal [[Boo]] and therefore can only be [[Spin Jump]]ed on. Their sprite depicts their hair as light blue, instead of black, possibly to make it distinguishable from the background.


====''Super Mario Run''====
Fishin' Boo makes another appearance in the [[Nintendo GameCube]] version of [[Yoshi's Cookie]], where they appear as the fourth opponent in the game's VS. Mode if the player plays on the Hard difficulty.
Fishing Boos are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', since the version 3.0.4 update. Fishing Boos are encountered in [[Fishing Boo Taunts You]] only. Though they still carry harmful blue flames, Fishing Boos can also carry items such as [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[coin]]s, [[color coin]]s, and [[Super Star]]s. Despite the flames they carry, Fishing Boos are completely inoffensive, and can be defeated with a [[stomp]] attack, which reveals that they appear to be wearing sheets and brown shoes. Due to using 3D models, their turning animations are much smoother than before, making the flame's movement more predictable.


===''Nintendo Puzzle Collection''===
Fishin' Boos also make an appearance in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' as '''Fishing Boos'''<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cgtFRF6Hx8 ''Super Princess Peach'' Glossary]</ref>, and a [[Calm|calmer]] variety called [[Calm Fishing Boo|C. Fishing Boo]] also appears. Both types reside in [[Shriek Mansion]] on [[Vibe Island]], and only [[Rage]] can defeat them.
A Fishin' Boo is the fourth non-player opponent in the Hard difficulty of VS. Mode in ''[[Nintendo Puzzle Collection]]''{{'}}s remake of ''[[Yoshi's Cookie]]''


===''Super Princess Peach''===
They were also [[List of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content|slated to appear]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', as an unknown object was named similar to Fishin' Boo.
Fishing Boos are enemies in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. They also received a [[calm]] variety, [[C. Fishing Boo]]. Both types reside in [[Shriek Mansion]] on [[Vibe Island]], and only [[Rage]] can defeat them.  


===Unused appearances===
A "Fishin' Boo" appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' in Bowser's level up screen. However, it was actually a Boo with a fishing rod and not an undead Lakitu.
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
Fishing Boos were also likely [[List of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content|going to appear]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', as an unknown object was named similarly to Fishing Boo, but the idea was scrapped.
