“I almost caught a fish this big! But it, um, got away.”
Vast oceans surround Britannia on all sides, and for centuries men and women have earned their keep fishing the coastal waters. In addition to an endless supply of fish, those skilled in fishing have been known to pull forth treasure, and danger, from the deep.
In order to fish, you must be un-mounted and holding a Fishing Pole in one hand.
Training
If you have a Crystal Ball of Knowledge, turn it on and try out different fishing locations until the ball reports "Optimal" skill level.
- 0 - 30: Buy from NPC Fisher
- 30 - 50: Fish in shallow water. Stand on the shore of islands such as Moonglow or Haven and walk around.
- 50 - 75: Fish off of a dock, a few tiles from the shore. The farther out, the higher the skill level. A crystal ball comes in very handy.
- 75 - 100: Fish in deep water (gains after 85.0 are only possible in in deep water). Deep water requires the use of a boat to reach. Get on one and sail around. Be prepared to fight Sea Serpents.
When a fishing spot has been "used up" you will get the message "The fish don't seem to be biting here". Then is is time to move to another location.

4x4 Fishing
While fishing on a boat or on a pier you can do what is called 4x4 fishing. This is where you target 4 spaces to the NE, SE, SW, and NW of your character while fishing. You can farm each of these locations for quite a while before having to move on again. Remember, you will need to move 12 spaces instead of just 8 to begin fishing again.
