Do boats break if you draw it in and it lands in water?75.165.49.48 00:35, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Pocket edition?
What about pocket edition? Fishing rods were added in 0.11.0. What are the chances for each catch in pocket? What has been removed?98.182.58.147 12:44, 6 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Exactly this. Can you also catch treasure/junk items? - MinecraftPhotos4U (talk) 21:24, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

But name tags aren't in pocket edition! Boorider7 (talk) 12:13, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

I caught leather leggings in pocket edition.
Not sure if this is pocket edition exclusive or not. Can someone add this to the table? - MinecraftPhotos4U (talk) 18:05, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Only leather boots can be caught in PC (just checked 15w40b to be sure). Anomie x (talk) 01:15, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

I fished them up too in pocket edition. I then renamed them in an anvil to for sale then put them in a chest, and put a sign saying "costs 8 emeralds." I then have people come to my world and say in chat "wanna buy these pants for 8 emeralds?" I don't know the probability yet though but they might be replacing tripwire hook. I don't know if there are other pocket exclusive things you can fish up though. Boorider7 (talk) 12:14, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Possible Incorrect Information Regarding Enchantment Probabilities
I've been doing a lot of fishing (thousands of catches) using a fishing rod enchanted with LotS III, Lure III, and Unbreaking III. According to the Catch Possibilities table on the Fishing page, the probability of catching junk should be zero with this rod. However, I've been catching far more junk than treasure! What gives? I should point out that I have been casting with the enchanted rod and reeling in with another (sometimes enchanted, sometimes unenchanted) rod. I thought that the enchantments of the rod you cast with were in effect even if you switch rods. Or is it only the Lure enchantment? I know for a fact that the Lure III enchantment is in effect because I sometimes have a wait time of zero before a catch spawns. I also know for a fact that the Unbreaking enchantment does NOT transfer, because when I use a second rod that does not have an Unbreaking enchantment, it is used up much faster than one with an Unbreaking enchantment. So what about LotS? Does that enchantment stay in effect even if you switch rods after casting? If so, why am I catching so much junk? Either I'm misinterpreting the information from the wiki, or the probabilities stated are incorrect. ChupadooDad (talk) 20:44, 5 February 2016 (UTC)


 * As far as I can tell, it checks for which enchantments are on the equipped rod when you reel it in, not when you cast it. While the line is out, it will check the currently equipped rod for Lure to reduce the wait time. Switching rods is useful for preserving one with Lure III, but you'll get no benefit from any other enchantments. -- Orthotopetalk 23:12, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Something missing from the list...
Well I been playing Pocket edition for a while now and there's something missing from the list...enchanted Fishing rods (Lure I or II, Luck of Sea I,II or III, or unbreaking on it) Or all at once to make a Master rod (What I call them) ;)
