To unlock the I’m the Bird Now achievement in How to Fish, you need to use explosives to launch your primary mode of transport into the air. This process is straightforward once you have reached the second island.

Prerequisites

  • Unlock the Boat: Defeat the Spider Crab boss at the lighthouse to gain access to your boat.
  • Reach Island 2: Travel to the second island to gain access to dynamite.
  • Purchase Dynamite: Buy a stack of dynamite from the vendor on Island 2.

Steps to Launch Your Boat

  1. Position the Boat: Navigate your boat to a clear area of water.
  2. Prepare the Dynamite: Exit the boat or stand directly in front of it.
  3. Detonate: Light the dynamite and throw it at your boat.
  4. Trigger the Achievement: Once the explosion occurs, the game will trigger the I’m the Bird Now achievement as your boat is sent flying.

How to Reset Your Location

After the explosion, your boat will likely be displaced far from your current location. Because the achievement is recorded the moment it is triggered, you do not need to worry about losing progress. Simply reload your last save file to instantly return your boat to its original, functional position.
