Tales of Monkey Island Hints
Where can I find coupons for bait?
1 of 10: There are three of them -- two out in the open, and one very well-hidden.
2 of 10: First, there's a coupon for fish eggs sitting on the edge of the Fishing Well. To reach it, go into the jungle at Spoon Isle, then take the first right.
3 of 10: Second, there's a coupon for oysters on the ground next to the cliff where you find LeChuck. To get there, go into the jungle at Spoon Isle, then go right, up left, left, up right, and left.
4 of 10: To find the third one, start by going to Roe Island.
5 of 10: After you've rummaged through De Cava's stuff, it doesn't look like there's a lot to do -- but notice that odd hole in the side of the manatee on the wall.
6 of 10: De Cava designed the hole to fit something else he made, something in your inventory.
9 of 10: And it's not yet a coupon; instead, it's just the name of a book, "101 Fish Jokes." Where do we go for books in the Jerkbait Islands?
10 of 10: Go back to Spinner Cay and head for the library, which is just on the other side of the raft. Ask for the book "101 Fish Jokes," then examine it in inventory to get a coupon for glowing worms.
