Guide:Fishing
In Growtopia, fishing can be done by using bait on water while holding a Fishing Rod. The result from fishing can either be Fish or some random items that are obtainable through fishing.
In order to fish, any Fishing Rod must be equipped. Players can only fish from one block radius of any Water Bucket. In order to start fishing, any bait is to be consumed onto the Water Bucket and the player will begin fishing. When there is a splash of water, this means that the rod has caught an item and upon clicking on it, the fished item will go straight to the player's backpack.
If a player moves or clicks at the incorrect time, their bait will be lost. The player must click roughly when they see a water splash, otherwise, the fish will go away. If a player misses a splash, after some time, there will be another splash and the player can catch fish again.
