Mod is unfortunately currently broken, all fish are lying still on the seafloor. At least they can be picked up if the water is shallow enough, but it completely breaks fishing.
I have the same problem as @PracticalSolutions, after doing an extensive review, I realized that it is the Fishing Overhaul mod, hopefully they can update the mod so that it works like before the mistlands update
I am having a strange bug. The fish are always along the bottom of the water when this mod is enabled. They also swim, roll, turn and attempt to 'jump' while moving along the ground. The drunk fish were entertaining at first, but they also can't reach the bait except in shallows. Fishing is now almost impossible. I'm going to fiddle around with my mod manager in case it's just conflicting with one of the MANY mods I have on there, and if I have any success I'll let y'all know.
This is one of the mods that I consider my favorites as well as backpack redux. It is excellent for early game, you just have to go to a lake, river or the seashore and wait for the fish to come closer to catch them. At the beginning is when you suffer the most for food, fish are an excellent food, but unfortunately, you can reach the black iron age and not find the merchant to buy a rod. That is why it is my one of my favorite mods.With the Valheim Diving mod, you can dive in and catch the fish that are deeper.Before I used the improved swimming mod and I loved swimming and fishing with my hands, now with h & h it broke. Thanks for creating such an excellent mod. P.S. Works well with H&H.
Why someone hasn't created a mod that allows us to create our own fishing rods, is mind-blowing to me. I did look up the history of Vikings once, and it seems they didn't have fishing rods but did use fishing nets. Why can't we at least make those? I think the dev's of this game had no real intention in making this a "survival" game. Almost nothing about the existing game screams survival. HP's down to 25 or so? No worry, you won't starve? Been wandering for days without sleep? Not to worry, your stamina will suffer a bit but you're not going anywhere. Creatures of the night knocking on the door of your settlement? Don't be afraid. Staying awake won't hurt you, they can't open your door and they'll just make sparks (by dragging their claws or wooden weapons on your wooden walls). Been raining for days? Just head down to Home Depot and buy some brown paint and that wood will be shiny and new again.
You are absolutely right, to solve many of these failures are the mods. At the time of your comment there were no reeds, now they have created them. I changed some materials to create the cane, how to do it with wood and not fine wood, also change the guts for neck tails
Thanks for the awesome mod! It makes fishing much more enjoyable. Would it be possible to change the time that you have to respond to a bite? It would make it feel much more relaxed if it didn't need your full attention to respond in time.
