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. Fishing is a reliable, fast source of food, as the player does not need to wait for pigs to spawn or for planted crops to grow. However, string is required to craft a fishing rod 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 1.5 additional hearts of healing (raw fish heals and Cooked Fish heals ). Also like Pork, the most efficient way to cook fish without wasting supplies is to use a stick as your fuel source when cooking fish. Two sticks will make one cooked fish without wasted fuel. In the Halloween update, Notch said he would add fish. However, he had limited time, and was thus only able to add them as an item. There is coding for fish in the game, but no model currently exists.

Advantages

 * A Raw fish heals one heart of health. If you have one or an half heart empty, it is very effective, as you won't waste much. Although Cookies heal half, and are more efficient, Cocca Beans are hard to find. So Raw Fish is the preferred choice.

Trivia

 * 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.
