CJ Animal Crossing: New Horizons: What You Need to Know About the Villager

C.J. Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a new villager set to be Flick's fish-loving counterpart.

Much like Flick, C.J. is a brand new villager to the franchise. He appears as the host of the seasonal Fishing Tourney where the player will compete with their other villagers to catch fish on the island.

In case the buck-teeth didn't tip you off: C.J. is a beaver with beige fur and blue eyes. He wears a pair of sunglasses, backwards baseball cap, white polo shirt, puffy yellow vest, and yellow camouflage pants.

C.J. Animal Crossing: New Horizons

As we mentioned before, C.J. is the new host of the seasonal Fishing Tourney that typically takes place in the spring and summer months. He issues challenges and other tasks to the player should they choose to participate in the competition.

Additionally, C.J. will buy fish from you at 1.5x the going rate of Nook's Cranny. He mentions wanting to pay "premium prices" for them and will get visibly excited if you have a "whole school" to sell him. For example, if you wanted to sell C.J. a sea bass, he would buy it from you for 600 bells in comparison to the 400 bells you would get from the Nooklings.

Yes, he's basically just the fish version of Flick.

In that same vein, C.J. will make you models of your favorite fish to display in your home. All you need to do is present him with three of the type of fish you'd like made into a model. He will create the piece for free and mail it to you the next day.
