== Using a Rod == [[File:Fishing_2a.jpg|frameless|right|300px]] * This active method of fishing is used to catch [[Carp]] in fresh water (inland ponds and rivers) and [[Mackerel]] in salt water (coastal sea). In order to use this method - you will need to be in possession of: # [[Fishing Rod]] or [[Simple Fishing Rod]]. # [[Fishing Hook]] or a [[Bone Fishing Hook]] to attach bait to. # A [[knife]], [[shovel]] or a [[pickaxe]] to dig up [[Earthworm]]s for use as bait. (Look at your feet whilst wielding either tool and use the "'''''Dig For Worms'''''" option.) # (<u>Recommended Tip)</u> A [[Knife (disambiguation)|Knife]] is needed to clean and fillet your fish for [[Cooking]] afterwards so ensure your tool has enough durability to prepare your catch afterwards! '''<u>To begin fishing</u>''': #Locate a body of water, either an inland pond or the coastal sea waters. Some inland rivers and bodies of water will allow you to fish in them if they are deep enough! #Attach your [[Earthworm|earthworm]] to your hook by taking either item into your hands and combining it with the other to create your [[Fishing Bait|bait]]. # Place the Fishing Rod of choice in your hands and place the Baited Hook into the Hook slot on the Rod. #Stand by the shore and left click to cast your line. Hold left click until the crafting circle has completed. #A distinct tugging animation will alert when something is caught and the player will reach out and take the item off the line with a clicking confirmation sound. #The caught item will spawn under the player; whether it be junk ('''''There is a chance of pulling out a [[Cooking Pot]] or a pair of [[Wellies]] when fishing''''') or a fish. #Every "successful" catch will consume an Earthworm. Remove the Hook from the Fishing Rod and attach another [[Earthworm]] before casting your line again.
