📋 About This Mod
This mod does nothing on its own.
If you're a content modder, you can add a short snippet to your Content Patcher pack in order to set the color of a fishing rod while in use. This can be used to edit existing fishing rods, or to add color to custom fishing rods, which typically cannot be done without C#.
