'''Fish Sticks''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. Its name comes from the name of the real-life food {{wp|fish finger|fishsticks}} (also known as "fish fingers"), which are battered slices of fish.


The game involves many fishing rods all cast into a small pool in the center of a circular wooden deck. When a fishing rod sinks down, this signifies that a [[Cheep-Cheep]] has bitten the line, and players must go up to the rod and reel it in. Red Cheep-Cheeps are worth one point, and larger golden ones are worth three points. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
==Introduction==
A [[Fishin' Lakitu]] flies down and catches a [[Cheep Cheep]] with its fishing rod. The four players then walk up from separate ports where their boats are docked.


The mini-game takes places in a wooden, circular-shaped deck or pier surrounded by water. As the mini-game begins, the players walk in from four different colored boats. There are fishing rods scattered around the small pool in the center, making a total of 12 rods. These also come in several colors: Pink, orange, purple, yellow and green. In the pool in the center, there's a small reef and many Cheep Cheeps swimming around it.
==Gameplay==
Players attempt to catch Cheep Cheeps on the ends of the various scattered fishing rods surrounding a pool of water in the middle of the platform to earn [[point]]s. There are twelve rods total. When a fishing rod sinks down, this signifies that a Cheep Cheep has bitten the line. Red Cheep Cheeps are worth one point, and [[Gold Cheep Cheep|larger golden ones]] are worth three points. The player(s) with the most points at the end of the minigame win(s).


Interestingly, the deck is kept afloat by bi-colored inflated objects, rather than with sticks or logs.
==Ending==
The camera zooms in on the location of the winner, who then performs their victory animation as the losers do their losing animations. If there is more than one winner, the camera does not zoom in.
