Fishing in T5 is going to be diffrent. You need to find insects to build a lure to fish.

Three skills are necessary:

  • first, fly fishing from SBody to build the (fly) fishing rod,
  • second, arthropodology from the SWorship, to find insects while doing random activities in game
  • and third, Fly tying to build the lure.


For example, if you have a Queen Maggot in your inventory, you can make a Fresh Queen Maggot Lure with 1 Queen Maggot + 2 Thread. Fly Tying is in the skills menu.

Skills:

  • Fly Fishing: ? SBody
  • Arthropodology: 100 dirt. SWorship
  • Fly tying lvl1: 100 Thread, 25 Thorns. SWorship
  • Fly tying lvl2: 7 footworm, 7 corkscrew asp, 7 Spittlebug, 7 woodmoth, 7 feather midge, 7 white sawfly, 7 wooly aphid
  • Filleting: 7 Knife Blade, 7 Phagrus Meat, 20 Common Basil. SWorship

You can find insects while: Watermining, picking papyrus, collecting wood, thorns, slate, mud, dirt....


Some experiences (from Detour):

I went out fishing with 2 Red cricket (Fresh) lures. Hopped to about 6 different locations and cast about 10 times before losing both lures with no fish caught. I was getting the messages, "No fish bit. Try different lures and locations," or, "No fish bit. You also lost your lure. Try different lures and locations."

Next I used a Woodmoth (Fresh) lure. I caught 3 fish before losing it. They were 7, 6, and 6 deben Malapterurus. I was standing at 777, -1428 at around 6:26 AM game time. I lost the lure on the same cast as catching a fish and didn't get a notice about it. It just disappeared from my inventory.

Finally, I used a Wooly aphid (Fresh) lure. I got to cast it about 3 times from different locations before I lost it with no fish caught.
