Fishing

🎣 How to Fish
Fishing requires the following:
- 3 Stamina

- An active Fishing School
Fishing School are commonly found around Neo-Tilus, and can now also spawn in Virelda and Minamoto following the latest update.
Fishing Process:
- Stand near a fishing school and click it to cast your line
- Wait for the fish to fully bite, then press Spacebar to hook
- Pressing early will scare the fish away
- Use A and D to reel in the fish
- Keep the green bar over the fish to wear it down
- Bar turns red when the fish resists or escapes
- If you succeed:
- Gain 1 marine item
- Lose 3 Stamina
- If you fail:

- No Stamina is lost
Tip: Equipping the Fishing Magnet (rewarded from a quest) allows the player to catch quest-related items.
