The Longshot is an item from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It is a Hookshot with improved functionality, as its chain is twice as long as that of the Hookshot. The device is somewhat larger than the Hookshot, as well. While an extended chain may seem like a minor addition, the Longshot soon reveals that it in fact makes a world of difference compared to the Hookshot.
The Longshot is the main treasure obtained within the Water Temple, and is obtained after the duel with Dark Link. In Master Quest, it is obtained on the second floor - right below the switch that drains the water in the dungeon.
The Longshot can also be used to cross the broken bridge in Gerudo Valley, if Link chooses to never obtain Epona. Also, it is necessary to cross the River of Sand in the Haunted Wasteland if Link does not use the Hover Boots instead.
