🎣 Fishing Systems 🎣

A survivalist fisherman.jpg

Fishing in our game is more than just casting a line—it's a dynamic way to gather food, scrap, low-grade fuel, and rare items!

🌊 Where Can You Fish?

You can cast your line in four different areas, each with unique fish to catch:
🐊 Swamp
🌊 River
🌊 Ocean
🏗 Underwater Lab Moonpool

Once you catch a fish, you can:
🐟 Eat it for food.
💰 Sell it for scrap at a Fishing Village.
🔪 Gut it for loot like bones, fish oil, or bait.

🎣 How to Start Fishing

✅ Get a Fishing Rod

  • Obtain from Missions, Fishing Village, Large Fishing Village, or crafting.

✅ Find Bait

  • Bait can be acquired by foraging, hunting animals, or looting food crates.

✅ Apply Bait & Cast Your Line

  • Attach bait to your fishing rod.

  • Hold Right-Click to aim, then Left-Click to cast.

✅ Reel in Your Catch!

  • Use 🇦 / 🇩 to pull left/right.

  • Use 🇸 to reel in, but be careful—if the line gets too tense, it can snap!

  • Keep the fish centered for the best chance of success.

🎣 Latest Fishing Mechanics Update! 🎣

Our new fishing system introduces strategic baiting and risk vs. reward gameplay!

🦈 New Bait System

🔹 Smaller fish are now required as bait to catch larger fish.
🔹 Raw fish meat can NO longer be used as bait.
🔹 Decide wisely—cash out a medium catch or risk it for something bigger!

🎣 Fishing Trap Updates

🦑 Fish Traps now use the same bait system as rods (freshwater vs. ocean fish).
🐟 Fixed at 5m depth, meaning no sharks or orange roughy (which require 5.5m/moonpool).
🛑 Traps have a 50% fail rate—bait is used, but the trap stays active.
❌ You can no longer catch the same fish you used as bait.

🦐 Bait Value Adjustments

🐛 Use up to 3 lures (worms/grubs) at once for higher-tier fish.
🐟 Anchovy, Herring, Sardines → Bait value: 2 (stack up to 2).
🐻 Raw Bear & Wolf Meat → Bait value: 10 (up from 5).
🧑‍🚀 Raw Human Meat → Bait value: 3 (up from 1); Spoiled Human Meat = 0.
🍓 Berries → Bait value: 1 (up from 0.5, stackable up to 5).
🐠 Raw Fish → Bait value: 0.5 (stackable up to 3).
🐟 Catfish, Small Shark, Salmon, Orange Roughy, Trout, Yellow Perch → Bait value: 10 (ensuring you don’t lose high-value fish for a worse one).

🦐 Fishing Hot-Spots 🦐

Fishing just got more exciting with randomly spawning Fishing Hot-Spots in the ocean! 🌊 These zones provide unique modifiers that make fishing faster, easier, and more rewarding.

🎣 Fishing Hot-Spot Mechanics

When a hot-spot spawns, it rolls 5 random attributes:

🔹 Fishing Yield – Catch more fish per attempt.
⏳ Catch Time – Hook fish faster, reducing wait time.
🎣 Rod Tension – Stronger fishing line, lowering break risk.
⭐ XP Gain Modifier – Earn more XP while fishing (SkillTree bonus).
🎁 Casket Modifier – Higher chance of finding a Fishing Casket with loot!

🚢 Fishing Hot-Spot Features

These hot-spots can also spawn with a floating platform, giving players a place to fish without a boat!

🏝 Platform Includes:
🛒 2 Vending Machines (same as Fishing Village).
🔥 2 BBQ Grills – No wood needed to cook your catch!
