Fishing waters

Walk into water with a rod to cast. Every land’s water has its own fish, a prize and a serpent.

What else bites

  • Fish banks. Each 8×8 stretch of water holds 6–12 catches, then it’s fished out until 5 minutes after it started. Move along.
  • Junk (12% at first, less with skill, never below 2%): Old Boot38%, Pine Log23%, Silkweed23%, Bone15%.
  • Pearls: a 3% chance of a Glimmer Pearl.
  • Prize fish start biting 20 points above a water’s skill. The innkeeper pays well for them.
  • Serpents: a 1.2% chance per catch to wake the water’s serpent, if it’s no more than 6 levels above you.
  • Messages in bottles from Fishing 30 lead to sunken wrecks with gold, treasure, pearls and sometimes a unique.

Every number is in the fishing guide.
