A Fishing Rod is a tool which can be used to catch different fish from the sea. The fish can then be traded to receive cargo from the trading merchant at Freeport, Cannoneer's Key, Nassau and sold elsewhere. Keep in mind that fish can be turned into Fish Oil. To see how to produce it, and what it is used for, click this link about Fish Oil.

Trivia[]

  • The type of wood or metal on the Fishing Rod does not affect the type of fish you catch. The type of metal though also does not affect its default durability
  • When starting out fishing, the player will catch mostly Mullet, Trout, or Ballyhoo. To get better fish, a player must be Level 4 in Fishing Skills and be farther out at sea.
  • Reaching Fishing Level 4 will also allow you to get Tarpon, a fish needed for Lanterns.
  • Reaching Level 7 will allow you to get Tuna and Marlin. Which can be traded for the highest quality fish crates
  • The durability of fishing rod decreases only when you have successfully caught a fish.
  • Fishing is a game mechanic, which is not preferred by players, for the time it takes.
  • Fishing on a laggy server is almost impossible.
  • Due to game mechanics, the Fishing Rod loses durability when hit against an object. i.e. a boat.
  • What kind of fish you can catch can be different if you are in the open sea (i.e. beyond the map, but not on route to Burkeland) or on land.
  • A fishing rod can actually be used as a weapon, it has great range and excellent blocking ability. However, it takes a lot of hits to kill an enemy with it which makes it better as an improvised defensive tool. Realistically, it should only be used as a weapon when a more specialised weapon such as a sword or halberd is unavailable.
