Handmade Fishing Rod

The Handmade Fishing Rod in Rust is a crafted tool essential for catching fish and occasionally snagging useful junk from bodies of water. To operate the rod, players must prepare their bait, aim at the water, right-click (RMB) to ready their cast, and then left-click (LMB) to cast the line. Once a fish takes the bait—a noticeable tug on the line—it's time to reel in your catch.

When you have a bite, the real action begins. Use the A and D keys to pull the rod left and right, which helps in maneuvering the fish. To draw the fish closer, hold the S key to reel it in. The Handmade Fishing Rod provides a basic yet interactive fishing experience, allowing players not only to source food but also the chance of finding items that can be useful for survival.

Besides its primary use, the handmade rod adds an element of relaxation and strategy to the survival aspects of Rust. Seasoned players know that patience and paying attention to the tension of the line are key to a successful catch. Remember, fishing can also be a peaceful way to pass the time away from the dangers of Rust's environments.
