[edit] Catching fish

Catching fish requires bait mixed with a fishing pole to perform. You then need to use the fishing pole while standing next to a water tile. Each bait has around 20 uses before a new bait needs to be added.

Fishing poles can be hard to find, but they are occasionally sold in shops. Fishing bait may be purchased in Vernis or Lumiest.

Water tiles can be found in Vernis, Lumiest, Port Kapul and Palmia. If you have a small castle, you may use the pre-placed water tiles to create more water tiles in your home.
