Seafood isn’t just limited to fish fillets; with a grill, you can also prepare dishes like Smoked Smallfry or Sushi with Black & Blue Shieldfish.

CREATING A FISHING SPOT WITH A BAIT BUCKET

All you need to fish is a Fishing Rod and water. But fish are a slippery bunch, so don’t just cast your line and expect fish to flock. Throw bait into water to create a Fishing Spot!

Get bait from a Bait Bucket, which has four rarities you can craft. The rarer the bucket, the more likely you are to attract a fish:
