==Notes==
* Better Fishing Rods increases the [[Sunken Chest|Sunken Chests]] fishing (the max limit  of chests that can be fished with a rod is 5).
* Upon usage, the Fishing Rod renders the player immobile.
* When players are fishing in the same area, they get a luck boost. (2.5% each player, max 15%)
* The maximum mastery you can reach on the fishing rod is 100. Ensure you equip your best rod, as you won't be able to craft the next one without it. (Note: After you unlock the next rod with the best rod in hand, you can switch back).
* The more mastery you have on a rod, the better your control in the fishing minigame is, and the progress bar fills up a little bit faster.

==Enchantments==
[[Enchantments]] are special attributes that can be applied to fishing rods by interacting with the [[Dragon Talon Sage]] and using a [[scrolls|scroll]]:
* Baitless Catch: <math>{(2 ~ \times ~ level)%}</math> chance to not consume bait.
* Experience Sharing: Shares <math>{(5 ~ \times ~ level)%}</math> of fishing experience with nearby players. The player also gains this XP.
* Fish Scanner: Boosts final luck factor by <math>{(2 ~ \times ~ level)%}</math>.
* Resilient Fishing Rod: Increases rod durability by <math>{(2 ~ \times ~ level)%}</math>.
* Tasty Bait: Fish bite faster with <math>{(2 ~ \times ~ level)%}</math> increased chance.

Unlike [[swords]] and [[guns]], fishing rods are capable of being attributed Skills and Abilities. They can (like swords and guns) also be enchanted with Curses and Blessings.

===Skills===
Fishing rods can have a skill that can be triggered:
* '''Reel Boost:''' Temporarily increases rod strength for 10 seconds.
* '''Calming Technique:''' Slows fish movement by 50% for 10 seconds.
* '''Conserve Bait:''' Reduces bait consumption chance by 25% for 120 seconds.
The power bar is fully filled by catching three fish. The bar can be refilled (1/3rd) even when a skill is still active, allowing longer skills like Conserve Bait to last even longer. 

===Abilities===
Abilities are passive effects that can buff a fishing rod:
* '''Fishing Rod Protector:''' Prevents line snap once per catch. Instead, boosts progress by 30% and calms the fish.

===Curses===
Curses are enchantments that grant a high risk, high reward passive:
* '''Curse of the Leviathan:''' Catching a specific species may trigger an unknown event.
* '''Curse of the Terrorshark:''' Start with 20% extra progress, but fish panic much faster.
* '''Curse of the Whale:''' Final fish weight increases by 15%, but may consume 2 bait instead of 1.

===Blessings===
Blessings are enchantments that grant a passive with better buffs (in comparison to abilities):
* '''Blessing of Bait Efficiency:''' 20% chance to not consume materials when crafting bait. 
* '''Blessing of an Angler’s Treasure:''' Increases daily treasure limit by 3.
