    The achievement is simple with only two requirements. Checking your location, in this case the lake and the dialog from fisherman when you get his hat. More specifically (WHAAAAAT?!?Why are you doing this to me?What are you thinking?.....)

    Once you've managed to grab his hat, just throw the rod back into the pond with it. The hat will unhook and sink, which unlocks the dialogue and the achievement.

    Stand closely in front of the owner so you face him face to face. Make sure when you cast the line that the lure bypasses him and hits the wall. As soon as you can, hold down A to reel in the line and eventually it should attach to the hat. Now, walk far enough into the pond and cast the line and wait for the hat to sink. The line is not cast very far with the hat attached. Keep that in mind. You will be fine 50 rupees for this.

    Someone correct me if I am wrong, but this may not work if you have the sinking lure equipped. Tried this multiple times with and wasn't able to catch the hat off his head until i quit and got the normal lure. Once I changed lures I got his hat first try.

    I learned the hard way that you can miss this archievement by first catching the hat and hit save & quit before letting it go. After reloading the game / save the owner will still have permanently lost his hat but it won't count towards the archievement. Will try again in another playthrough.

    Can confirm that this doesn't work with the sinking lure. You won't be able to grab the hat at all.

    On the flip side, I can confirm that this *does* work without the sinking lure, so...
