Many Dinkum players are looking for a fishing guide. You might think this is easy, but there are a few more things you should be aware of before you get started. And once you know about them, you will be fishing right and left. So, in this guide, let’s see how to fish in Dinkum.
Dinkum Fishing Guide – How to Catch a Fish
To catch a fish, you need to do three things.
- First, find the fish in the river. Once you get a closer look at some, head to the location.
- Then you must point the rod at the fish and run the line towards the fish. The longer you hold the left mouse button before releasing it, the further the float will move. Try to get it as close as possible to the fish you want to catch.
- Finally, as soon as the fish bite on the bait, reel it in. Use your stamina conservatively and you should be able to catch fish in no time.
Here are some tips to make fishing easier for you.
- Run the drum as long as possible. You can always reel it in to shorten the distance, so further shooting will save time.
- Wait for the first burst to start winding. You don’t want to start reeling the moment the fish touches the line. As soon as you see a spike, your signal is reeled in.
- Take care of your stamina. Do not reel in the fish while it is splashing or trying to escape. It will only drain your stamina. Let the fish make an effort to get away. As soon as you see that it has stopped, start winding. This will save you a lot of stamina. Do this back and forth until you catch a fish. Remember that if you run out of stamina during this process, you will lose the fish.
- Exercise. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t catch your first few fish. It may take some time to learn the mechanics of the mini-game described above.
How to get fishing equipment
The fishing equipment you will need is a fishing rod. To get it, you need two things: 1260 in-game currency and a Fishing License. Here’s how to get them both:
- Talk to Fletch and select “I want to apply for a license”.
- Then get a Fishing License from her. If you can’t get it, do more milestones to unlock it.
- After obtaining the license, go and talk to John.
- You can buy a fishing rod from him for 1260 in-game currency.
