Parrot's Fishing Crates
by voxelparrot
Parrot's Fishing Crates replaces the usual fish catch with four tiers of loot crates that a fishing rod can reel in, for players on Forge or NeoForge with 1.20.1.
What it does
Reeling in a crate depends on the crate tier. The basic Fishing Crate is the most common result, and the Sunken Crate, Abyssal Crate and Leviathan Crate are progressively rarer, with the Abyssal Crate about three times rarer than the Sunken Crate and the Leviathan Crate about three times rarer again. The base chance of reeling in a crate is 4%.
Two things raise that chance. Fishing while it rains adds 1%, and the Luck of the Sea enchantment adds 1% per level, up to level III. The Luck status effect also changes the odds, and during rain with Luck of the Sea III the chance of reeling in a crate reaches 8%. The author recommends the Lucky Coin for players who want to fish continuously, since otherwise the mod feels less useful.
The mod is an expansion to fishing that adds crates to the catch instead of only fish. Crates have to be opened to receive their contents, which include Rusty Weapons and Diamond Weapons. Parrot's Fishing Crates is published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 only, and it runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need it. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Four crate tiers
Fishing Crate, Sunken Crate, Abyssal Crate and Leviathan Crate form a ladder from common to rare finds.
Rarity-based reeling
Each tier has its own reel-in chance, so a rarer crate takes many more casts than the one below it.
Weapon loot
Crates can hold Rusty Weapons and Diamond Weapons, giving the expansion a reason to keep fishing.
Luck modifiers
Rain, the Luck of the Sea enchantment and the Luck status effect each raise the reel-in chance.
Lucky Coin
The author recommends the Lucky Coin, which helps keep fishing worthwhile for players who fish a lot.

How it compares
Random Fishing Crates is a different take on crates: it is server required with client optional, works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and covers 1.19 – 1.21.11. Fishing Net also runs on client and server for Forge and NeoForge, but it targets 1.20.1 – 1.21.10. Sea Legend is a Forge build for 1.20.1 with client and server, and Fisherman's Haven covers Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 with an optional environment. None of these is open source.
