All Fishing skills
| Skill | Requires | Unlocks | Blueprint |
|---|---|---|---|
 Old RodFishing rodStarting skillA rod that has seen plenty of use and has only avoided breaking by sheer luck. | None | None | — |
 Braided LineFishing rodBlueprint requiredIts special weave makes the line stronger, which means fish will break free less often. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Sliding fishing lineFishing rodBlueprint requiredA thin fishing line twisted from hemp fibers and impregnated with a mixture of crushed fish scales and mucus. It becomes almost transparent in water, blending into the murky depths. It helps prevent frequent line breaks. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Reinforced RodFishing rodBlueprint requiredThis rod's flexibility, strength, and comfort let you tire fish out faster. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Coral fishing rodFishing rodBlueprint requiredUpgraded fishing rod built around a coral-fiber core. Increased flexibility and resilience make it easier to haul in larger fish and reduce the risk of line breakage. The design is not particularly durable, however, so it is unlikely to withstand prolonged use. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Baitcasting ReelFishing rodBlueprint requiredA reinforced reel that winds the line faster and pulls the catch toward the boat. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Friction reelFishing rodBlueprint requiredFishing reel with an adjustable drag system. Allows the line to be released under heavy load, reducing the risk of snapping. An essential piece of tackle for landing large and powerful fish. Handcrafted, and therefore prone to rapid wear. | Crafting recipe | ||
 EarthwormBaitStarting skillA common earthworm. Universal bait for the simplest fish. | None | None | — |
 Wind-Up TinBaitBlueprint requiredBait for non-predatory fish. Meat rots inside the clattering can, attracting small scavengers. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Sturdy EarcrawlerBaitBlueprint requiredBait for non-predatory fish. The contraption emits distinct sound vibrations that attract larger specimens. Increases the chance of catching a trophy fish. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Rainbow FinBaitBlueprint requiredBait for predatory fish. As you reel in the line, the bright plumage flutters, provoking local predators to attack. Its array of hooks digs securely into the throat or cheeks. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Flaming BellyBaitBlueprint requiredBait for predatory fish. The color of the phosphorescent slime and the movement of the lure's fins mimic the behavior of Snapper. Large predators attack it without hesitation, only to become prey themselves. Increases the chance of catching a trophy fish. | Crafting recipe | ||
 PipecrossBaitBlueprint requiredBait for predatory fish. Its bloody taste of rusty iron and bright coloring attract even the most cautious predators. Thanks to its sturdy metal core, it is ideal for catching Greasechar. | Crafting recipe | ||
 Clinging PincerBaitBlueprint requiredImproved bait for bony fish, both predatory and peaceful. A special expanding system of struts and hooks catches larger specimens more securely. | Crafting recipe |
