The fishing spots are specially designated locations where the player can sandfish to complete missions and/or commissions or to use for cooking. Currently there are seven fishing spots available in Sandrock. [ verify ]
Before the player can sandfish at the fishing spots, they need to have at least a Basic Sandfish Trap in their inventory. Bait can not be used from the shared inventory. [ verify ]Some fish can be caught without using bait, swimming around the sandfishing spot. As the player begins to fish, they will begin to dive back into the sand and bait will need to be used to spawn fish.
