Graveyard Keeper Fishing

First of all: There are five locations (see the sections on the right) where you can fish. You can get three different rods and use eigth different baits. Daytime is important too!

Rods

  • Simple Fishing Rod
    (given to you by the fisherman at Lighthouse Keeper for bringing him five moths)
  • Good Fishing Rod
    (can be bought from the fisherman)
  • Excellent Fishing Rod
    (can be bought from the fisherman)

Baits

  • Butterfly
    Can be found at flowers during day
  • Moth
    Can be found at flowers during night
  • Maggot
    A compost result
  • Lure with a gem
    Can be bought from the fisherman (can not be used with Simple Fishing Rod)
  • Steel Lure
    Can be bought from the fisherman
  • Anchovy
    Caught by fishing
  • Gudgeon
    Caught by fishing
  • Fishing without any bait

The natural baits are consumed after a successful fishing try and the two lures have a durability.

How to fish?

It looks like a major problem for some people to realize how the fishing mechanic at Graveyard Keeper works. So I am going to explain it.

  • If you are at an fishing spot and an rod is equipped , you can press E.
  • Now you can choose your bait at the bottom of the screen.
  • You can press and hold E again and choose one of three throwing sections (short, medium, long). If one section shows only 0% and you try to fish there, you`ll lose energy for nothing.
  • Now you have to wait until the float pops up and press E. There is also be a sound played. But you must have a good reaction!
  • A minigame starts and you have to keep the yellow bar at the height of the fish by pressing E.

If you have trouble with the fourth point, you can eat Fish Nuggets (can be bought from Horadric in the Dead Horse) before you try, because it buffs you and gives you some extra reaction time.

Pond/Village

There is a pond in the north of the village and normaly it`s the first fishing spot you find. I`ll list now, how the chance are at day/night, with one of the three fishing rods and what kind of bait work.

The Waterfall is in the north on the west side of the river and can be discovered after you finished the bridge, which makes it possible to visit the swamp too.

Swamp

If you finish the bridge across the river in the west, you can get access to the fishing spot at the swamp. Normally you`ll find the one at the waterfall before, but maybe not.

River

Normally the last spot you explore. The spot itself is in the north and you get access, if you destroy the barricades in the north of the church or the one in the west; north of the swamp. But I don’t think finding the locations will make any trouble.
