Fair Fishing Loot

by Runterya

Fair Fishing Loot changes the loot that vanilla fishing returns, so fish, treasure and junk are rolled on more even odds.

What it does

Fair Fishing Loot rewrites the fishing loot tables in vanilla Minecraft to change how often each catch appears, and it adjusts conditions that were added in the 1.16 versions. Treasure catches also need open water, a rule that is removed too. The result is a fishing loot table that follows a clearer set of chances, shown in the mod's own table.

Key features

  1. Adjusted fishing chances

    Vanilla fishing loot odds are changed so the catch rates are more even across fish, treasure and junk.

  2. Fish farm loot

    Loot from fish farms and AFK setups follows the same revised chances as regular fishing.

  3. Loot table paths

    Both loot table paths are covered, so the change applies across the game versions from 1.13 on.

What the author says

and in 1.16+ versions mojand added conditions. to catch treasure you need to fish in open waters and i removed it too. Works from 1.13 → 1.21+ (includes both loot_tables/ and loot_table/ paths).
