Where to Find a Fish for Jabu-Jabu in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Before you can rescue Princess Ruto in the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, you must make an offering to Jabu-Jabu. The game doesn’t spell out what he wants, but one of his devoted followers offers a clue.

Here’s where to find the right offering and how to present it to Jabu-Jabu.

Jabu-Jabu’s preferred offering is a fish. Head to the small pond at the foot of the waterfall in Zora Domain, where a follower is trying to catch fish for him. Equip an empty bottle and press ZR to scoop one up.

You can also buy a fish from the Zora Domain store for 30 rupees, though catching one at the pond is free. The fish must come from Zora Domain; fish caught at the Lake Hylia fishing spot won’t count.

Once you’ve caught a fish and prepared for the next dungeon, travel to Zora’s Fountain behind King Zora. Equip the bottle, approach Jabu-Jabu, and press ZR in front of the small, shell-shaped indentation. Link will place the fish there, triggering a cutscene.

You’ll then enter Jabu-Jabu’s Belly, where you can acquire the boomerang and meet a new friend.


The Ocarina of Time remake differs in places from the original. For more help, look for dungeon walkthroughs covering everything from the Deku Tree to Ganondorf’s Castle, as well as guides to finding Richard the dog and the missing Cuccos.

Completionists can also seek out every Piece of Heart and Gold Skulltula token, along with all the places to plant Magic Beans.
