Here’s everything you need to know about how easy it is to fish in lava in Terraria. Before moving on, note that any of the items mentioned can help you fish and other things in the lava. So just don’t waste time getting all the equipment.

  • Hotline Fishhook
  • Lava Resistant Fishhook
  • Bait for critters

This is the equipment you will need to catch lava in the game. So now let’s see how you can easily get these items in the game.

How to get Hotline in Terraria

To get the Hotline Fishing Rod in the game, you need to complete 25 Angler Quests in Hardmode. For those who don’t know, Angler is an NPC located in the Desert Terrain. As soon as you meet him, you will find that he is sleeping. So you just need to wake him up and interact to start the quests. The chances of getting these items through quests are pretty slim, so you’ll be betting against 1/75 odds. On the other hand, if you managed to get this item, you won’t need any other lava fishing equipment.

How to Get a Lava Resistant Fishhook

Players can easily obtain the Lava Resistant Fishhook by opening Obsidian or Netherstone Crates. However, to get these crates, you still need to fish in the lava in Terraria. Therefore, we recommend that you first get a Wand or Critters.

How to get critter bait

To capture and obtain Critters, you will need a Lava Resistant Bug Net, which can be crafted at the Hellforge Workshop using a Bug Net and 15 Netherstone Ingots. For reference, here is a list of lava critters you can get in the game.

However, before you go ahead and catch them, make sure you have the Guide To Critter Companionship. This is because these creatures are quite dangerous and can damage you while in your inventory.
