Fishing

Fishing is the process of obtaining fish using fishing rods.

Catching fish
a fishing rod to cast the line into a body of water. Your position doesn't matter: You can be in the water, sitting in a boat, or standing on adjacent land. Fish can be caught just as readily in small, shallow, and/or player-created pools.

The bobber must be watched closely. Small splashes can be seen around the bobber.

There will be a period where the player must wait, randomly chosen from 5 to 45 seconds. It has been noted that if there are enemies near the fishing site (around 12–16 blocks), the fish will not bite.
 * Each level of Lure enchantment on the fishing rod will subtract 5 seconds from this wait time.
 * If the bobber is not directly exposed to sun or moonlight, the wait time will be about doubled.
 * If the bobber's block is being rained on, the wait will be shortened by about 20%.

After a period of waiting, a fish will approach and start to bite. A small trail of water particles will head towards the bobber (unseen if Particles is set to Minimal in Video Settings). When the bobber dips below the surface, immediately right-click again to reel in the line. The window for reeling in when a fish bites is about half a second. If a bite is missed, the line can be left in the water to wait for another bite.


 * A successful reel-in causes a raw fish, salmon, pufferfish, clownfish, junk, or treasure (see below) to fly through the air towards the player. Normally, it will fly directly to you, but if there are blocks in the way, it may bounce off at an angle.
 * A successful reel-in also produces an experience orb worth 1–6 experience points at the location of the player doing the fishing.

The line will disappear if the player wanders more than 32 blocks away from the bobber, or if the player stops holding a fishing rod.

If a fishing rod is used while underwater, the bobber will float up to the water's surface, unless a block is in the way or unless it hooks a mob such as squid.

Reeling in the fishing rod costs durability; see below.


 * Notes

Junk and treasures
The player can occasionally catch treasure or junk instead of fish. An unenchanted fishing rod has an 85% chance of catching fish, a 10% chance of junk, and a 5% chance of treasure. Each level of the Luck of the Sea enchantment decreases the chance of junk and fish, and increases the chance of treasure.

Fishing rod durability
The fishing rod can be used 65 times before breaking, or more if the Unbreaking or Mending enchantments are applied.
 * Reeling in while the bobber is in the air, or in the water, not reduce durability.
 * Reeling in successfully catching a fish, junk or treasure costs 1 durability.
 * Reeling in while the bobber is stuck in a solid block costs 2 durability.
 * Reeling in a dropped item costs 3 durability.
 * Reeling in an entity that's not a dropped item costs 5 durability.

Durability cost occurs on reel-in, rather than on impact, so penalties can be avoided by switching to another item or dropping the rod instead of reeling in.

Trivia

 * The maximum distance you can get between the bobber and yourself is 33 blocks.
 * If you cast the bobber into a waterfall, the bobber will float up the waterfall until it reaches the top where it will stay until the player pulls it back in or until a fish is caught on the line. If a fish is caught on the line, the bobber will then fall off from the waterfall making it much easier to visualize when to reel in.
 * If you are underwater, or if you stand right next to the bobber, you can still catch fish.
 * If you cast the line into an End Portal, the line and bobber will disappear, although it doesn't teleport back to the Overworld.
 * You can switch from one fishing rod to another, at any time, even after hooking a fish or snagging something. This means that you can hook a fish with one rod, and reel it in with another. When you reel it in the new rod will take the durability cost.
 * You can obtain the Cow Tipper achievement from reeling in leather.
 * If you cast the line into the corner of a block it will "skip". This can be used for faster fishing. Skipping the process of rising out of the water. This is known as skishing.
 * You are able to fish using the fishing rod in your off-hand slot.
 * The fish or other caught item behaves like a drop and can be stopped by solid blocks.
