How to Fish is an animated short produced by Walt Disney Productions and first released on December 4, 1942. It stars Goofy and was directed by Jack Kinney. [1]
Like all "How To" Disney shorts, this one opens with a narrator explaining how to fish, with Goofy acting as the visual narrator. This short film does not have a plot; all the facts are jumbled together, with several humorous facts and clips.
The short was released on December 2, 2002, on Walt Disney Treasures: The Complete Goofy . [2]
