Today’s NYT Strands puzzle features a theme called ‘Something’s fishy’. This theme plays on the dual meaning of ‘fishy’, leading to unexpected answers.

Players can earn hints by finding four-letter words in the puzzle. If you’re still in the dark, here are some useful words to give you those valuable clue tokens: QUARK, REAL, STRAND, SWEARS, TRAINS, WATER, QUARTER, TRIES.
The puzzle contains six hidden words excluding the spangram. The game is designed to keep players on their toes with varying difficulty levels.
