AutoFishS

by HsMourait

AutoFishS is a Forge utility for Minecraft 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 that automates fishing while a player holds a rod, with settings and a blacklist.

What it does

Installed on the client, AutoFishS works in single-player and on multiplayer servers without any server-side install, since only the player's own game runs it. Forge is the only loader it supports, and each of the six release versions has its own file.

Its feature set centers on a fishing helper that keeps casting and reeling for the player. A settings screen controls the behavior, and a fishing blacklist lets the player exclude specific catches. The mod also changes how the vanilla fishing rod behaves, so it is not a separate minigame.

The mod is open source under the MIT License, and its source code is public. The latest Forge file is 0.5.1 for 1.20.6, published on 2026-08-10, the same day as the first release.

Key features

  1. Automatic fishing helper

    Once enabled, the helper keeps the rod in use so the player does not have to recast and reel each time.

  2. Settings screen

    An in-game settings screen opens from the game to adjust how the automatic fishing behaves.

  3. Fishing blacklist

    A blacklist screen lets the player choose which catches the helper should ignore.

  4. Tournament behavior

    During tournaments the helper applies to fish the player has not yet collected, instead of skipping them.

Use cases

Long fishing sessions

Players who fish for extended periods can let the helper handle casting and reeling while they do other things in the game.

Tournament play

Players entering fishing tournaments can use the helper on fish they have not yet collected.

Who it’s for: Players who fish often on Forge and want automation with a settings screen and a blacklist. Only the client needs the mod, so server owners can leave it out.

How it compares

Full comparison

AutoFishS is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, supporting only Forge. AutoFish for Tic is also client-side only and open source under the MIT License, but its files target only 1.20.1 and it supports both Forge and NeoForge. Stardew Fishing Auto is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, with Forge as its only loader. Starcatcher runs on client and server under a custom license and is not open source, so it differs from AutoFishS in environment and license.

Questions

Does AutoFishS need to be installed on the server?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing. Servers can run without it.

Which Minecraft versions does AutoFishS support?

Files exist for 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4, 1.20.5 and 1.20.6, all for Forge. The latest file is 0.5.1 for 1.20.6.

Can AutoFishS be used with Fabric or NeoForge?

No. The mod is published for Forge only, so Fabric and NeoForge players need a different fishing mod.
