Re: Fishing bait - Worms, guts, and groundbait I did suggest some time ago that using the currently wasted resources from butchering would be good, mainly as a source of tsty offal to eat but that was before bait was introduced, this would be even more useful now, a tasty piece of liver would sustain you while the less appetising bits would be on your hook.

Goundbait might also be useful around nets for passive fishing.

Re: Is trading for food the easy way out?
Ahh yeah not needing bait sounds like the dream!! I'll have to look into it, I've bought a decent rod and hook and some nets, but have yet to make the move to a rapids tile.

My experience fishing amounted to something I named "The Javelin Trap" in which I slowly starved to death while catching just enough fish to keep active fishing, not ideal haha. That was early days and I've since learnt the benefit of trapping so perhaps that would switch things up.

With couple/few nets you should be able to add good amount of fish to your diet. Few hints/suggestions:
If you set a net during “morning”, wait until “late morning” the next day before checking it. BUT not later than “late morning” of the 2nd day.
Sacrificing one of the smaller fish, like a bream, every day when you’re net fishing: you might find yourself looking to smoke or dry some of them, as you can’t eat that much roasted fish! Or maybe trade/donate to nearby villages.

Yep that is exactly my first moments with fishing as well ;D I mostly try to turn it around by trying to fish not more than twice in a day and try to find some village to ideally trade for some nets or fishing rods. But yeah, spear fishing is definitely not a way you can thrive with hehe.
