'''Fishing Boos''' (alternatively '''Fishin' Boos''') are ghosts resembling [[Fishin' Lakitu]]s that ride a cloud without a face.
'''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>TCRF.

Fishin' Boos debut in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They carry a fishing rod and ride a [[Lakitu's Cloud]], much like their Koopa counterpart. However, instead of a [[1-Up Mushroom]], Fishin' Boos carry a blue flame and follow the player in a way that makes it hard for them to [[Jump]]. Their clouds also do not have faces. They have the same immunities as a normal Boo and therefore can only be spin jumped on.

Their sprite depicts their hair as light blue, instead of black, possibly to make it distinguishable from the background.
 
The [[Choco-Ghost House]] is the only level to feature a Fishing Boo.


====''Super Mario Run''====
====''Super Mario Run''====
Fishing Boos reappear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' as of the version 3.0.4 update, where they are found in the level [[Fishing Boo Taunts You]]. Although they are still found carrying harmful blue flames, they can also carry items such as [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[Coin]]s, [[color coin]]s, and [[Super Star]]s. In this game, despite the flames they carry, the enemies themselves are completely inoffensive, and can be defeated with a stomp attack, which reveals that they appear to be wearing sheets and brown shoes.

In this game, despite the flames they carry, the enemies themselves 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.
