Most American families hold a fish feast on the day of the festival, and the host sends an invitation to the guests before the festival.

The fishing rod is tied with a green ribbon, and the ribbon is tied with gifts for guests, such as fish-shaped handicrafts and a small basket full of candy. At the banquet, the host served dishes carefully cooked with fish as raw materials, including frying and baking.
