Raw Fish

Raw Fish is a food item that can be obtained by fishing with a Fishing Rod in any body of water. Fish do not appear in the game as a mob and are only seen as an item when caught. While fish are a reliable, fast source of food at the moment (as the player need not wait for pigs to spawn or till the land and wait for planted crops to grow) however string is required and early on in the game it may be difficult to acquire.

Like Pork, raw fish can be placed in a furnace to produce cooked fish, for 150% improved healing (raw fish heals and cooked fish heals ).

In the Halloween update, Notch was planning to add fish as a mob, however he had limited time and could only add them as an item. He has said he will add the mob in the future, and in the game files there exists fish coding (though no model).

Trivia

 * If you fish from a boat, the boat breaks as if you punched it.
 * For the most productive fishing, cast into the water with a large wall at your back - when fish are reeled in, they can fly out of the water and over your head, possibly going back into the water, especially if you are fishing from a boat.
