GONE FISHIN’
Ready to start catching Floppers? Just follow these tips and you’ll be reel good in no time:
CRAFT A FISHING ROD
FishingUpdate BlogAssets FishingRod 1920x1080
You gotta have the right gear to get started, so let’s start with a Fishing Rod! There are four rarities you can craft. You’re more likely to pull in your catch with a higher-rarity Fishing Rod, but the lower-rarity ones are easier to make. Here’s how to craft each rarity!
Common Fishing Rod (craftable at a Level 1 Crafting Bench)
Unlock the recipe for the Common Fishing Rod by adding a Cord to your inventory.
Uncommon Fishing Rod (craftable at a Level 2 Crafting Bench)
Unlock the recipe for the Uncommon Fishing Rod by adding a Knotroot Rod to your inventory.
Rare Fishing Rod (craftable at a Level 3 Crafting Bench)
Unlock the recipe for the Rare Fishing Rod by adding a Flexwood Rod to your inventory.
Epic Fishing Rod (craftable at a Level 4 Crafting Bench)
Unlock the recipe for the Epic Fishing Rod by adding a Frostpine Rod to your inventory.

Be sure to hold onto those Legendary fish! There will be a way to display them in a future update.
MAKE A DELICIOUS DISH: INTRODUCING THE FOOD PROCESSOR!
FishingUpdate BlogAssets FoodProcessor 1920x1080
Want some brick fish for breakfast? With the new Food Processor Station, you can turn the fish you catch into Fish Filets! (Unlock the Food Processor recipe by crafting or using a Lumber Mill.)
Fish Filets aren’t the only seafood you can eat. With a Grill, you can also make dishes like Smoked Fry Fish and Black and Blue Shieldfish Sushi!
CREATING A FISHING SPOT WITH A BAIT BUCKET
FishingUpdate BlogAssets BaitBucket 1920x1080
All you need to fish is a Fishing Rod and water. But fish are a slippery bunch, so don’t just cast your line and expect fish to flock. Throw bait into water to create a Fishing Spot!
Get bait from a Bait Bucket, which has four rarities you can craft. The rarer the bucket, the more likely you are to attract a fish:
Common Bait Bucket (craftable at a Food Processor)
Unlock the recipe for the Common Bait Bucket by adding a Fish Filet to your inventory and having a Food Processor in the world.
Uncommon Bait Bucket (craftable at a Juicer)
Unlock the recipe for the Uncommon Bait Bucket by adding a Common Bait Bucket to your inventory and having a Juicer in the world.
Rare Bait Bucket (craftable at a Juicer)
Unlock the recipe for the Rare Bait Bucket by adding a Common Bait Bucket to your inventory and having a Juicer in the world.
Epic Bait Bucket (craftable at a Juicer)
Unlock the recipe for the Epic Bait Bucket by adding a Common Bait Bucket to your inventory and having a Juicer in the world.
Become as much of a fishing legend as the expert Turk! (This angler may appear as a potential Villager to join your adventure.)
MORE UPDATES!
ENTER SAND AND GLASS
v28.30 adds two new resources to LEGO® Fortnite! With a Shovel, dig Sand out of the ground in sandy areas.
Some people don’t like Sand, because it of course gets everywhere. It’s even in glass… Craft Glass with Sand and a Crafting Bench!
ZOOM IN WITH THE SPYGLASS
FishingUpdate BlogAssets Spyglass 1920x1080
Make it easier to see what’s far away! The Spyglass is a telescopic tool that magnifies distant views. Unlock the recipe for a Spyglass by adding Glass to your inventory and having a Crafting Bench in your world. Then, you guessed it, craft one at a Crafting Bench!
LET THE COMPASS GUIDE YOU!
FishingUpdate BlogAssets Compass 1920x1080
It’s easy to forget which way you’re going in unless you open your map. But if you craft a Compass, you won’t need your map for that! The Compass adds basic navigation to the HUD, telling you which direction you’re facing. Unlock the recipe for a Compass by adding Glass to your inventory and having a Crafting Bench in your world. Then — you know where this is going — craft one at a Crafting Bench.
Want to add navigation AND map markers to your HUD? Then craft the Advanced Compass, whose recipe is unlocked the same way as the regular Compass.
