The skill of fishing. Skill effects the types of fish you get and the weight.

Characteristic gained

Soul / Soul depth

Method

Activate the fishing rod or fine fishing rod and right click on water or boat and select Fish

You can only fish on tiles which are fully submerged, but since you can't fish while swimming this can make finding a spot quite difficult. What you need is a tile to stand on which is half above and half below water, and not so steep that you can't stand on it without sliding in. Then stand on the part that isn't submerged and fish the adjacent tile which is fully submerged.

Alternatively you can just use a boat. Head out to deep water, activate your fishing rod, right click on your boat and select "fish". Note that you will probably have to moor the boat first or it will drift too far to complete the action.

Notes

  • Fishing in deep water can give better fish.
  • Fishing skill goes up as you fish, not when you catch the fish.
  • Fishing is close to impossible in small pools (less then 4x4) of water.
