How to Hang a Fish on Your Car in Neverness to Everness

Neverness to Everness lets players show off a good catch in a pretty unexpected way: hanging a fish right off the back of a car. It's a purely cosmetic feature, but it's one of the more fun customization options in the game once fishing and vehicles both come into play. This guide covers exactly how to catch the right fish and get one mounted on a car.

What You Need to Hang a Fish on a Car

Two things are required before any fish can go on display: a purple or golden fish from fishing, and a car fitted with a Rear Tow Hook. Both need to be sorted out before the option becomes available in the garage.

How to Catch the Right Fish

Catching fish in NTE is straightforward, and it gets even easier during the Fishing Frenzy event if it happens to be active. Head to any fishing spot on the map, equip a fishing rod along with some bait, and start fishing until a purple or golden fish shows up.

warning
Regular fish won't work for this. Only purple and golden rarity fish can be mounted, so check rarity before locking anything in.

How to Get the Rear Tow Hook

The hook that holds the fish needs to be purchased at a car modification shop. Head to any shop, talk to the seller, and select the car that needs upgrading. From the Modify menu, choose Rear Tow Hook and pay the Fons cost to add the hook to that vehicle.

How to Lock the Fish for Display

Once the fish and hook are ready, the next step is locking the fish so it can actually be used. Open the map, head into Hethereau Hobbies, and select the fishing section. From there, open the Fish Hold and lock the specific purple or golden fish to keep it available for display.

tip
Skipping this step causes a "There are no usable fish in the Fish Hold" error when trying to select a rear ornament later. Double-check the fish is locked before heading to the garage.

How to Put the Fish on the Car

With everything in order, the final step happens through City Tycoon. Open City Tycoon, go to the garage, and select the car that already has the Rear Tow Hook installed. Choose the locked fish and press Use to mount it onto the back of the vehicle, ready to show off around the map.

How to Store Extra Fish

Anyone catching more purple and golden fish than they can use has an easy way to keep them from going to waste. Teleport to the nearest Luna Bay location (marked with a fish bowl icon) to purchase a fish tank, a fish tank decoration, fish food, and pH-balancing acid. Then fast travel to any owned house and place the tank to transfer extra fish in for storage.

tip
A fish tank decoration is required for this to work, since fish can't be added to an empty tank. Any fish stored in a tank can still be selected as a rear ornament later, so nothing goes to waste.

Getting a fish mounted on a car in NTE really just comes down to fishing for the right rarity, installing the hook, and locking the catch before heading to the garage. It's a small detail, but it's a fun way to add some personality to a ride.
