Core Keeper Fishing Basics
Fishing in Core Keeper is quite easy. Equip your fishing rod, stand near water where there are fish visible, then hold and release the secondary action button. If you miss the water or fish aren't biting, you can manually reel in the line.
While in a spot where fish exist, listen for the sound "bloop" and then key in the second action button to start reeling your catch in. A fishing battle will ensue—holding the button reels in, but let go if the fish indicator goes red to prevent snapping your line. You can also fish when fish are not present.
Fishing Rods
There are a total of six fishing rods in Core Keeper, each with its own stats and crafting requirements. Here's the list of rods at your disposal:
