MySims PC: I have a few questions

Its been a really long time since last time I've played MySims on the pc. I just have a few questions if anyone still plays it too. (Note: I'm talking for the PC not the switch) I have tried looking up these answers on my own, but I either gets answers to do with sims 4 or I get answers for other systems. Neither of which are helpful. x.x

First question. I need to do a task for candy and I need clown fish essence. My dumb fingers pressed the button the mouse too early, so I didn't get a chance to read on how to fish. I tried winging it, but keep failing, so then I tried looking it up online. Luckily, I didn't find the answer, but it game me the answer for how to do it on the wii and I'm on the pc. Can only please explain to me how to fish? 

Second question. I noticed that some of the other sims will juggle, jump on the couch or even sit outside and read or as they call it, have a book party. I was wondering if there was a way my sim could also do those things without having to wait for other sims? Like, is there a way I can spread out a blanket and start a book party instead of waiting for another sim to start it??

Third question. I want to take some screenshots of some cute of silly moments my sim has, but whenever I press the prtsc button, it minimizes the game and tries taking a screenshot of my pc's background. As pretty as my background is, I don't think I'm obsessed with it enough to have multiple pictures of the same image. XD I tried looking this answer up online, but all it gives me are ways on how to take screenshots on the sims 4. So is there anyway to take screenshots on mysims for the pc or am I just going to have to just snap pictures of my screen with my phone like the good ol days? XD

I understand that this game probably doesn't have a lot of players as far as pc goes to this day, so the answers to my questions may go left unanswered or that some people may not remember for they probably haven't played in such a long long time. But I would still be thankful people read my post and even if you only had the answer to just one of my questions. 😄

  • To take a screenshot, you press F1. To do fishing, you put the bobber over the bubbles and when it is in the water, press your left mouse  button and pull it back.

      Thank you so much, Rosemow. You can believe how helpful this was. So many times I saw cute moments where I thought would make a good screenshot, but I never could figure out how to take one. :)
