Fishermen S Trap FAQ

Craft a fish trap using wood and string. If you have Farmer's Delight installed, the recipe uses canvas instead of string. Check your crafting menu for the exact recipe based on your mods.

Place your trap fully underwater in a natural water biome like an ocean, river, or lake. The trap will not work in small man-made pools or non-biome water sources.

Bread works as a universal bait that catches any random fish. Different crops attract specific fish types, so experiment with what you have to target particular catches.

Make sure the trap is fully submerged in a natural water biome (ocean, river, or lake) and that you've placed bait inside it. Traps placed in artificial pools or above water will not work.

Fish are caught passively over time—you don't need to stand nearby. Check back periodically to collect your catch and refill the bait.

Yes, placing multiple traps in different locations or the same biome will increase your total fish production. Each trap works independently and catches fish simultaneously.

The trap will stop catching fish once the bait slot is empty. Open the trap menu and add more bait to resume fishing.

No, the trap only works in natural water biomes like oceans, rivers, and lakes in the Overworld. It will not function in other dimensions.

Yes, break the trap block to pick it up and move it to a new location. Any bait or caught fish inside will be lost, so collect them first.

The trap is designed to passively catch fish without requiring constant player interaction, making it a lightweight addition. Multiple traps should not significantly impact performance.
