Who doesn’t enjoy a relaxing day by the fishing lake? While fishing in LEGO Fortnite has been a hit, you can also learn how to catch fish in the regular Fortnite game. If you’re interested in mastering the art of fishing in Fortnite, this guide is for you. Let’s dive in and get started!
How to Catch Fish in Fortnite
Assuming you’re already familiar with where to find Fortnite fishing rods and the best fishing spots, let’s dive into how to fish in Fortnite:
- Find a rod barrel and press the Interact button (E) to pick up a Fishing Rod. Then, walk over to the water.
- Hold down the shoot button, aim the blue line at your chosen fishing spot, and release it to cast your line.
- When you see the bobber move or feel a vibration, press the shoot button again to start reeling in your catch.
Fishing in Fortnite isn’t just a relaxing activity (though finding a quiet spot can be beneficial). Your catches can actually provide health or shield boosts! Floppers (green) restore 50 health, Slurpfish (purple) provide 50 shields, and Small Fry (white) grant 25 health.
You could also reel in weapons or even a tin can to toss at enemies. So, while you cast your line, stay alert this is still a battle royale, unlike fishing in Minecraft.
Fortnite Fishing Spots
While you might occasionally find fish in chests, your best bet is to grab a fishing rod and fish yourself. The availability of fishing rods also varies depending on the fishing spot you choose.
If you’re with friends, aim to land in locations with a higher number of fishing rods. Here are all the places where you can find fishing rods and water bodies for fishing in Fortnite:
- Northeast of Rebel’s Roost (x6 Rods)
- North of Classy Courts (x8 Rods)
- East of Classy Courts (x6 Rods)
- Grand Glacier Lake (x6 Rods)
- Mount Olympus Pond (x4 Rods)
- Nitrodrome River (x1 Rod)
- Between Brutal Beachhead and Redline Rig (x2 Rods)
- West of Nitrodrome River (x2 Rods)
- North of Sandy Steppers (x1 Rod)
- West of the Map (x2 Rods)
- Pleasant Piazza River (x2 Rods)
