Fishing in Far Cry 6 is a relaxing way to gather resources and take a break from the intense combat. Here’s how you can start fishing:
-
Get the Fishing Rod: You'll automatically unlock the fishing rod after completing certain early missions in the game. Equip it from your inventory wheel. For more on how to manage your inventory and other tools, check out Master the Phone: How to Use Your Phone in Far Cry 6.
-
Find a Fishing Spot: Look for ripples in the water or visible fish swimming around. Clear waters make it easier to spot fish before casting your line. To explore more about enjoying the environment, you might find Feeding Pelicans in Far Cry 6: A Complete Guide useful.
-
Cast Your Line: Press the button corresponding to your platform to cast the line into the water. Be sure to aim near the fish to attract them to the bait. For advanced fishing techniques, see The Ultimate Guide to Fishing in Far Cry 6: Tips, Tricks, and Upgrades.
-
Hook the Fish: When a fish bites, the line will tug. Hook the fish by pressing the correct button (left-click on PC, RT on controllers). Learning to time your actions is crucial, much like in Far Cry 6: How to Pass Time and Change Day/Night Cycle.
-
Reel It In: To reel in the fish, hold the button to reel while pulling in the opposite direction of where the fish is swimming. Be careful not to let the line turn red, as this indicates too much tension and it might snap. Managing resources and items similar to this is covered in Far Cry 6: How to Save Your Game Progress Effectively.
With practice, you’ll be catching fish all over Yara in no time! If you're looking for more ways to make the most out of your time in Yara, consider reading about How to Unlock Co-op Mode in Far Cry 6.
