## Custom Fishing: how it works

Angling replaces vanilla fishing with a timed reel. You catch fish across 7 rarities, plus treasure, sea creatures and sea bosses, and your fish sell through `/sell`.

**How to open it:** Cast, wait for the boss bar to show REEL!, then right-click inside the window. Type `/fishing` (or `/fish`) for the Angling menu and `/bait` for baits.

There are currently 51 fish in 7 rarities.

- **Timed reel**: Reeling too early or too late loses the catch, and a perfect reel pays a bonus.
- **Angling Level**: Levels up to 100 and speeds up bites and improves rare fish, treasure and double catches.
- **Pristine Fish**: The one-of-a-kind top rarity, above Mythical fish like the Void Leviathan.
- **Sea creatures and bosses**: 6 sea creatures and 2 sea bosses, the Drowned Warlord and the Abyssal Leviathan.
- **Baits**: Luck Bait, Treasure Bait, Hunter's Chum and Glutton Bait each last 100 catches.
- **Trophies**: Milestones per rarity, fish and sea creature, and rarity trophies give permanent bonuses.
- **Server challenges**: The first finisher of each of the 4 challenges wins a title and $25M, and all 4 done unlocks Bountiful Seas (+33% fish prices).

**Note:** Fishing is blocked at spawn and from boats, so find a quiet shore.

**Tips**

- Auto-reel can be toggled in the `/fishing menu`.
- Check `/fishchallenges` for server challenges and `/fishtop` for the leaderboard.
- Themed rods from armor crates add luck, extra fish or reel bonuses.
