How to fish

Last edited: 31 May 2023

Introduction

At FishingLTD, we have implemented an alternative way of fishing. Instead of just clicking a button and waiting for the fish to be caught, we have added an interactive catch bar that requires some skill to catch the fish. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of catching a fish using our new mechanic.

Fishing message

The fishing message shows the number of fish species in the region.

The Chat Message

When you cast your fishing rod in a region where fish are available, you’ll receive a chat message that reads like “Fishing: There are 10 fish species in your region”. This message will inform you of the number of different fish species that are available in the area, giving you a better idea of what you might catch.

Catch bar

The catch bar shows the position of the fish and the progress of the catch bar.

The Catch Bar

When you catch a fish, you will be shown a catch bar with a green cursor and a yellow star indicating the position of the fish. The cursor can be moved in one of three modes: scroll, toggle, or click. Be aware that the catch bar is automatically moving left in all modes, so you will need to move quickly to catch the fish.

Scroll Mode

In scroll mode, you will need to scroll up and down to move the cursor along the bar. Scrolling down moves the cursor to the right, while scrolling up moves the cursor to the left.

Toggle Mode

Toggle mode is similar to scroll mode, but you don’t have to keep scrolling. Scroll up once, and the cursor will keep moving to the left until it reaches the end of the bar. Scroll down once, and the cursor will keep moving to the right until it reaches the end of the bar.

Click Mode

In click mode, you will need to left-click to move the bar to the right. Be aware that the bar is still moving left automatically.

Catching the Fish

To catch the fish, you will need to keep the green cursor on the yellow star for the entire duration of the catch bar. When the progress bar over the catch bar is completely filled, the fish will be caught, and it will be given to you.

Fish caught

The fish caught message shows the name of the fish, its length, and its price.

The fish

Once you have successfully caught a fish, it will have a unique lore that specifies its quality, length, and price. To learn more about the fish, type /dictdetail followed by the name of the fish. For example, to learn more about the Carp, type /dictdetail carp.

Conclusion

FishingLTD’s innovative fishing mechanics are designed to provide a challenging and entertaining experience for players of all skill levels.

With three different modes to choose from and a variety of fish species available in each region, there’s always something new to discover and explore. So what are you waiting for? Grab your fishing rod and start catching some fish today!
