Notes

  • The Hotline Fishing Hook is the only fishing pole that can be used to fish in lava without other equipment, where the Obsidifish and Flarefin Koi can be caught. Fishing in lava with any of the other fishing poles requires equipping a Lavaproof Fishing Hook (or its upgrade) or using critters from The Underworld as bait.
  • The color of the line can be changed by equipping a string in vanity slots.
  • The appearance of a fishing pole's bobber can be changed by equipping a Fishing Bobber accessory.
