Flotsam Fishing

Chair, then boat

The building codex prices a Fishing Chair at 2 floaters and 1 plank, and it produces bottled fish. A Fishing Boat is 6 floaters, 8 planks and 2 metal plates, described as more efficient than rowboats. I do not have a fish-per-hour for either, so “more efficient” stays a qualitative line from the codex. Fish sticks can dry five fish at a time. An Unbottler strips the pollution off a bottled fish and returns 1 plastic. A Fish Washer cleans catch that would otherwise sit dirty in the yard.

Both the Quick Start and the survival guide treat fish as the food that outlasts seaweed patches. Seaweed is the emergency ration. Fish is the job you industrialise. The three tiers, confirmed by the food guide and the Korean specialist notes, are Nibbler, then Gobbler, then Flounder. Farms that raise them belong to the Aquaculturist and are written up with the food numbers, not repeated as a second calculator here.

What I will not invent

Bait, school respawn timers and catch rates are absent from the guides I read. A Portuguese search for “pescar” is the same question: chair first, boat second, three species. If a video shows a fourth fish, I have no second source for it and it stays off this page.
