Project Zomboid FISHING Guide | Catch the biggest FISH! | Build 41

hello i'm zed survivor fishing is a skill in project zomboid that can get you a lot of quality food we're going to talk about that in this video fishing is good because it provides you with high protein food because we all know that farming is not enough so you will need some meat in order to balance out your diet you can use two ways to fish you can use a spear or a fishing rod spear will yield you a little less than a fishing rod but that's okay because it's extremely easy and requires no bait fishing rod can be found or improvised you can find it mostly in hardware stores and garages to improvise a fishing rod you need a knife a tree branch or sturdy stick nail or a paper clip and twine or fishing line now twine and fishing line are different twine is weaker meaning your fishing rod will lose its line more easily what do you do when you lose the line this happens sometimes and what you need to do is fix your fishing rod to do this you will need to read an angler magazine once you have read the recipe take a nail or a paper clip entwine or fishing line and fix it by right clicking on it and selecting fix fishing rod there is another thing called fishing net trap it only catches bait fish which we will talk about in a second you place it down in water and occasionally it will catch you some little bait fish next we are gonna need some bait to fish you can use live bait like little bait fish which you can get from the net trap or you will occasionally get it by fishing worms which are the most common are found by digging or foraging crickets grasshoppers and cockroaches which are found by foraging the only difference between these baits is that worms and bait fish can catch the biggest fish called pike while others cannot you can also use the fishing tackle you find it in hardware stores and garages it has a durability and should be used later when you have more levels of fishing skill so you don't lose it that often to fish all you have to do is grab your equipment and make sure it's in your main inventory now go closer to the water and right click on it select fishing here you can select what way and what bait you wish to use click ok and wait make sure the area around is clear of zombies because you will be skipping time of course chances of catching fish at dawn and dusk around 4 to 6 and 18 to 20 are increased by one half on abundance level from november to february the chances of catching fish are reduced by one abundance level so now what can you fish there is a variety of fish and they have a random length when you pull them out and you can also fish trash like shoes and socks to eat the fish you caught either put it in a campfire or a stove and cook it or you can cut it with a knife into fillets and you can add that to your stew sandwich pie stir-fry salad and more leveling fishing is simple every time you catch something you will gain xp read a book and keep fishing you can also pick trait angler or occupation fishermen to get starting fishing points you will also know both angler recipes which are found in angler magazines as fishing levels improve so does the quality of fish you're able to catch along with actually catching something the chance to break to line the chance to lose the bait and the chance to lose the fish if baited are decreased and that's about it great way of getting meat so you don't lose that weight you can use a freezer to freeze some fish for the winter so you don't have to freeze fishing near the lake and that way you won't lose calories during winter now it's time for the tip of the video fish fillet rots two times faster than regular fish also fish can be eaten raw and won't make you sick that's about it thank you for sticking until the end and i hope you learned something new i'll see you all in my next video
