Instructions

  1. Construct a fishing rod and lure.
  2. Equip the fishing rod (requires both hands free) and lure (shift-click to pick it up then right-click the fishing rod).
  3. Click the Fish icon under the Adventure menu, the cursor will change to a crucifix.
  4. Click on a body of water.

After a short while a fish will bite. After this, a window will pop up every few seconds presenting you with three random options. One option will cause the fish to be reeled in, one will do nothing, and one will let the fish pull away. The options themselves can be quite random, but their effect will be consistent at the same location (needs confirmation).

Your character's stance indicates your advantage over the fish. The further back you are leaning the closer you are to successfully catching the fish.
