❓ FAQ
Where to buy Bait?
- Moosewood Island: Bait Merchant near the docks (Standard Crates).
- Roslit Bay: Advanced Merchant (Quality Crates).
- Traveling Merchant: Sometimes sells rare bait in bulk.
Does bait run out?
Yes! Each cast consumes 1 bait. If you run out, you will fish with “None” (base stats), which significantly lowers your chances of catching rare fish.
