Farming & fishing
- Fishing
- Cast it in water (with bait) to catch fish. Every fish, bait and cut yield is on Fishing.
Electrical & stations
- Overfishing
- Catch 25 fish in the same 16 m square and the spot is overfished for 30 minutes: every catch within 16 m of it is junk. Junk does not count towards it. The count halves after 15 minutes without a catch there and starts again after 30 minutes. Move more than 16 m away to keep catching fish. Every fish and bait: Rust fishing.
