== Using a Trap == [[File:FishingTrap_InUse.jpg|frameless|right|300px]] Entirely different to the process of using a fishing rod; using a trap to capture fish is a much more passive approach. There are two very different traps available for use but both are craftable items and cannot be found as loot. # [[Small Fish Trap]], constructed from a [[PET Bottle|plastic bottle]], used for catching [[Bitterlings]] in fresh water and [[Sardines]] in salt water. # [[Fish Net Trap]], constructed from [[Metal Wire]] and [[Netting]], used for catching [[Carp]] in fresh water and [[Mackerel]] in salt water. Once you have crafted a trap, you should add [[Earthworm|worms]] as bait - a consumable that must be replaced with every catch, the same as using a rod. You can still use the traps without bait but you will only have a 15% chance to catch anything compared to the 85% when using bait. Each time you use a trap its condition will be reduced by one step meaning you can only use a trap 4 times. ===== <u>Fishing with Traps:</u> ===== # Place the trap in any body of water and add an [[Earthworm]]. # Wait 15 to 25 minutes for the trap to do its work. # You will see that the trap has changed position and your catch will be next to it.
