Fishing Aquatica Expanded

by PixelPacker

Fishing Aquatica Expanded is a Fabric fishing mod that adds more activity to the catalch, aimed at players who find vanilla fishing too passive.

FabricClient and serverCustom license1.20.4

What it does

The mod expands fishing for players who want more to do while the line is in the water than waiting for a bite. It is described as an expanded version of an earlier, smaller Fishing Aquatica mod. Installation needs Fabric API and oωo (owo-lib). The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Only Fabric files are published, for 1.20.4, and the custom license means the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Active fishing

    Fishing takes more player involvement than the vanilla wait, with extra steps during a catch.

  2. Expanded catch rules

    The mod changes what the player reels in, widening the fishing loot beyond the vanilla table.

  3. Alpha build

    The latest file is 0.1.0.1-a for 1.20.4, an alpha release from 2024-07-17, so some features may be incomplete.
