Fishin' Around is a 1931 American animated short film directed by Burt Gillett, produced by Walt Disney Productions and distributed by Columbia Pictures.

An old goat gamekeeper tries to arrest Mickey for fishing in a prohibited area, but with Pluto using his tail as an outboard motor, the pair easily get away.

[1] In a contemporary review, Motion Picture Herald said that "the fish that are not caught do some delightful tap dancing and a classical music score becomes infectious with merriment.

That said, Grob acknowledges that the short demonstrates how the Disney studio improved the quality of its animation, particularly the reflections of Mickey and Pluto on the water at the beginning of the film.

"[5] The short was released on December 7, 2004 on Walt Disney Treasures: Mickey Mouse in Black and White, Volume Two: 1929-1935.
