Nice day for fishing, ain't it?
! Version 2. 0. 0 is out, now contains almost all bobbers !
- refined meshes (increased vertex count, bobbers look less janky)
- cleaned up / restored textures - now all textures are cleaned (not only main diffuse textures are cleaned, but also lightning / specular and normal map)
- optional immersive glow for selected bobbers (only for the ones that "make sense", and only selected parts - added glowmap)
Current List:
- 8 basic bobbers
- Atomic Swimmer (20. 01. 2026 game update)

Additional Information:
- Grenade Bobber didn't need any refining, so it's not covered in this mod
- Lightbulb Bobber has it's own mod page, so it's also not covered in this mod

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Covers every bobber in the game, so no mismatched textures.
- Cleaner meshes and restored textures make fishing gear look noticeably better up close.
- Recently updated (Jan 2026) and still maintained by the author.
⚠️ Cons
- Description is one sentence — no screenshots or before/after comparisons to judge the improvement.
- Will conflict with any other bobber replacer mods.
- Purely visual; doesn't change fishing mechanics or rod functionality.
For players who use fishing rods often and want a visual upgrade without touching gameplay. If you're tired of blurry or low-quality bobbers, this is a quick fix. Skip if you never fish or already have a bobber replacer installed.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install via your mod manager so you can preview the new bobbers and disable if you don't like them.
- Since it replaces meshes and textures, make sure no other bobber mod is active to avoid visual conflicts.
- Check bobbers in-game during daytime and near water to see the texture improvements clearly.
