Description

Lobodk’s Better Fishing Loot

Make fishing more rewarding while keeping the familiar fish-first feel.

Better Fishing Loot expands fishing rewards for Minecraft Java 26.3 on NeoForge. The loot rules run server-side: it works in single-player through the integrated server and on dedicated multiplayer servers. In multiplayer, install it on the server; connecting players do not need the mod on their clients. Every cast yields exactly one item.

Full loot list

  • Vanilla fishing: cod, salmon, tropical fish, pufferfish, plus the usual vanilla junk and treasure (including bows, enchanted fishing rods, name tags, nautilus shells, saddles, and enchanted books).
  • Random enchanted books: books receive random enchantments; possible examples include Mending and Unbreaking.
  • Weapons: wooden, stone, iron, golden, and diamond swords, plus tridents.
  • Tools: wooden, stone, iron, golden, and diamond axes, pickaxes, shovels, and hoes.
  • Armor: leather, chainmail, iron, golden, and diamond helmets, chestplates, leggings, and boots.
  • Ranged and utility gear: bows, crossbows, fishing rods, and shields. Special gear has a 20% chance to be enchanted.
  • Overworld extras: ender pearls, eyes of ender, slimeballs, emeralds, and water-breathing, night-vision, healing, and swiftness potions.
  • Nether loot: blaze rods, blaze powder, nether wart, quartz, glowstone dust, magma cream, soul sand, warped fungus, crying obsidian, ghast tears, and fire-resistance potions.
  • Netherite: netherite scrap, ingots, swords, axes, pickaxes, shovels, hoes, helmets, chestplates, leggings, and boots. Gear may be enchanted.
  • Totem of Undying: 0.3% chance per cast, independent of Luck of the Sea and open-water conditions.

Rates and fishing conditions

The totem has a 0.3% chance per cast. Netherite has a separate 0.1% chance per cast. Nether loot remains at 3%, 5%, 7%, or 10% with Luck of the Sea levels 0–III. Individual item chances vary within the weighted loot pools.

Within regular fishing loot in open water, the chance to roll the treasure category is:

Fishing rod Treasure chance
No Luck of the Sea 20.9%
Luck of the Sea I 22.8%
Luck of the Sea II 24.8%
Luck of the Sea III 26.8%

The treasure bonus follows Minecraft’s open-water fishing rule. You can fish in a small pond, but the treasure-category bonus requires open water.

Installation

For multiplayer, install the JAR in the NeoForge server’s mods folder and restart the server. For single-player, install it in the local NeoForge instance’s mods folder.

Compatibility: This mod replaces Minecraft’s fishing loot table. Another mod or datapack that replaces the same table may conflict.
