✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (438,815) shows it's a well-loved addition
- Solid endorsement ratio (1,642) indicates community approval
- Simple concept that fits perfectly into settlement building
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in April 2021 — may have compatibility issues with current game versions
- Requires both SMM and Far Harbor DLC, so it's not for everyone
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who want to add a functional fishing spot to their settlements. If you have Far Harbor and SMM already, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're on a fresh install without those dependencies or if you want something more complex.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SMM installed and enabled before loading this mod, or the fishery won't appear in the workshop menu.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle the load order — but double-check that SMM loads before Fishery.
- Since the mod hasn't been updated in a while, test it in a new save first to avoid breaking your current playthrough.
