How to catch a char in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Catching a char in ACNH? You gotta know where and when! Char are pretty picky fish that only show up in rivers (especially at the clifftop ones) and in the pond on top of your island. You can catch them from March through June and then again from September through November if you're in the Northern Hemisphere. Flip those months if you're in the Southern Hemisphere. They're most active between 4 pm and 9 am – so, yeah, you might have to mess up your sleep schedule a bit for these guys. Use your fishing rod near the waterfall areas for a better shot. And remember, patience is key; these fishies can be a tad rare.

Just fish on the mountain rivers or the highest pond. Char are there. Also, they love early mornings or evenings.
Honestly, Char fishing is overrated. Go for the Sturgeon or Oarfish. Way cooler and worth the effort IMO.
