Fishing

The Fishing Skill is a leveling system added V.0.3.0 in Green Hell.

Basic Info

The Fishing skill is increased by catching fishes in a river, pond, or lake with a Fishing Rod. Fishing with a spear is covered by a separate Spear Fishing skill. Using a Fishing Rod Trap does not increase the Fishing Skill.

The player can successfully catch fish in any body of water with visible fish. After casting a fishing line with a hook that has been baited, a fish may approach the bobber. After the fish bites, the player has a few seconds to pull the line before the fish escapes. Increasing the fishing skill increases the amount of time the player has to pull the line in before the fish escapes.

How to Fish

• The player must first equip themselves with a fishing rod.
• While holding the fishing rod, drag a Bone Hook onto the end of the line.
• Attach some type of bait (see Bait section below). Different bait attracts different kinds of fish.
• Left click to cast the fishing rod while facing the water. The cast range for the fishing rod is not very long, so the cast may cancel if the player is targeting too high above the water, targeting too far away from where they are standing, or targeting too closely at the ground or shoreline.
• Once a fish approaches and the bobber moves after a bite, Right click to 'strike', i.e. pull the rod and the drag the fish in.
• Upon seeing the fish, the player may press E to take the fish.
• To continue fishing, rebait or replace the hook as needed and repeat.

If it seems like it is taking a long time to catch the attention of any fish, the player may be casting into an area without visible fish or may be using the wrong bait to attract the fish present. Typically a fish will tug on the hook within 10 seconds of casting a line with appropriate bait in front of a visible fish.
