Description

🎣 Bite & Reel

Fishing is no longer just "click when the bobber dips". When a fish bites, a reeling minigame appears — keep the green zone on the fish until the catch bar fills up!

How it works

  • A fish bites → a vertical bar appears next to your crosshair.
  • Hold Right Click to lift the green zone, release to let it sink.
  • While the fish is inside the zone, the catch bar fills. Outside — it drains.
  • Fill the bar → you get your catch (normal vanilla loot: fish, treasure, enchanted books).
  • Bar empties → the fish gets away.

Features

  • 🐟 4 difficulties: Easy, Medium, Hard, Legendary — smaller zone, faster fish and sudden darts on higher ones.
  • 🍀 Luck of the Sea makes easy fish more common.
  • ✨ Perfect catch: never let the fish leave the zone for bonus XP.
  • 🛡️ Server-side validation: the server decides when the minigame starts and rejects impossible results.
  • 🌍 English and Russian translations.
  • Uses the vanilla loot tables — compatible with datapacks that change fishing loot.

Installation

Requires Fabric API.

Where you play Where to install
Singleplayer / LAN host Your client
Multiplayer server Server and every player

Players without the mod can still join a server that has it — they just fish the vanilla way. On a vanilla server the mod does nothing (fishing stays vanilla).

Why does the server need it?

In vanilla, the server only keeps a fish on the hook for 1–2 seconds. The mod has to pause that timer while you play, and only the server can do that.

По-русски

Когда клюёт — появляется мини-игра: удерживай ПКМ, чтобы держать зелёную зону на рыбе, пока не заполнится шкала улова. Заполнил — получаешь обычный улов. Шкала опустела — рыба сорвалась.

4 уровня сложности, бонус за идеальную подсечку, «Удача моря» чаще даёт лёгкую рыбу.

Нужен Fabric API. В одиночке — ставить себе. На сервере — на сервер и всем игрокам (игроки без мода ловят по-обычному).
