📋 About This Mod

Updated for Stardew Valley 1. 6!

Version 1. 3. 0 is updated for Stardew Valley 1. 6

Instructions:

Download the Mod and unpack it into your StardewValley/Mods folder. This mod requires SMAPI.

Fish normally, click when a fish bites. The minigame is skipped and you immediately pull the fish from the water.

  • []fishing is always perfect, unless you configure it not to be (see below)

    []if a treasure is spawned, you will get it, unless you configure it to always spawn treasure (see below)

    []legendaries work

    []double fish work too if you have the correct items equipped

  • perfection bonus during the Stardew Valley Fair works according to your config

    To configure your options: download the mod, start the game once, SMAPI will then create a config.json file in your Mods/FishMe folder. In that file, you can change the two options for perfect catches (always vs. 25% of the time) and treasures (always vs. whenever the game would give you one depending on luck etc.)

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This mod is basically another version of Skip Fishing Minigame by DewMods, which broke after the 1. 4 Stardew and SMAPI update. I really liked using this mod and didn't want to start my new 1. 4 run without it, so I took matters in my own hands.

    I did not access any of the SFM mod's code, merely implemented the same functionality. I will remove my mod if SFM gets updated or if DewMods ask me to do so.
