Mob Fishing
Mob Fishing lets players catch around 20 new underwater creatures with a fishing rod, adding mobs that can be fished up from the water.
What it does
Fishing a mob from the water yields creatures that do not exist in vanilla, and each one carries its own unique loot. Some biomes host creature variants that move around the world, so a fishing trip can turn up different catches depending on where the player casts. The fishing system takes its main ideas from the Hypixel Skyblock fishing system. Client and server both need the mod, and it is released under the MIT License as open source for Fabric on 1.21 and 1.21.1.
Key features

Unique loot
Each of the roughly 20 underwater creatures drops loot of its own when caught.
Roaming variants
