Recast
by Serilum
Recast re-casts the fishing bobber automatically after each catch, so a player does not have to reel in and throw the rod again by hand.
What it does
When a fish or other item is caught, the rod is thrown back out without any extra input. Right-clicking the rod while no catch has happened returns it to normal behavior and stops the fishing action. The mod is aimed at making long fishing sessions less tedious.
Recast requires Collective and runs on the server side only, so players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 29 release versions, 1.16.5 – 26.3, and the code is licensed as All rights reserved.
Key features
Automatic re-cast
The fishing line is cast again as soon as an item is caught, with no key press needed.
Manual stop
Right-clicking the rod without a catch cancels the fishing action and works as it does in vanilla.
Quicker fishing sessions
Repeated casting is handled by the mod, which cuts down the clicks needed to keep a rod in use.

What the author says
Recast is a mod which automatically re-casts the fishing bobber when a player fishes an item. This makes fishing a little less cumbersome by speeding up the process. When the fishing rod is right-clicked without catching an item, it will behave as normal and stop the fishing action. Serilum.com contains an overview…
