How to Craft a Fishing Rod


Embarking on your fishing adventure begins with crafting a Fishing Rod at the Supplies Workbench. Here's what you'll need to gather:

  • 20 Logs: Easily obtained by chopping down trees.
  • 10 Copper Ingots: Crafted by smelting Copper Ore and Charcoal in a furnace.

Make sure you've unlocked the Essential Tools under the Crafting section in your Memetics menu to access the Supplies Workbench. To start crafting, press 'F' to add the fishing rod to your crafting queue. You'll see the crafting time displayed on the lower left side of your menu. Once it's ready, don't forget to collect your new Fishing Rod from the workstation.
