Babaprata's Fishy Friends
by Babaprata
Babaprata's Fishy Friends extends fishing with a new fishing rod, a set of collectible fish and a currency system for players who fish regularly.
What it does
Fishing is the main activity this Forge mod adds to Minecraft 1.20.1. The new fishing rod brings up special fish, and the collection includes 58 fish at release, with more planned for later updates. A currency system gives fishing a reason to continue, and advancements track progress through the catalog.
Only the server needs the mod installed, so players join a server that runs it without installing anything. The mod requires Curios API, which must be present on the server alongside it. Babaprata's Fishy Friends is published for Forge only, with a single game version, 1.20.1, and its latest file is 1.0.0, dated 2024-03-15.
