📋 About This Mod
This is a Fishing Bait recipe.json for Additional Recipes mod (required). You can configure ingredients and amount by editing the baitrecipe.json file in any text editor.
I have never fished irl but did a quick web search and it seems they like meat and sugary foods which is why I chose the ingredients below. Also added one piece of fish to make it less cheaty. Feel free to edit the file however you like!
e.g. if you want to delete one ingredient, delete whole entry including parentheses and any comma.
Whole ingredient entry example:
"item" : "FishRaw",
"amount" : 1
Here is the baitrecipe.json file contents:
"customrecipes" : [
"name" : "Recipe_Bait",
"item" : "FishingBait",
"amount" : 100,
"craftingStation" : "piece_cauldron",
"minStationLevel" : 1,
"enabled" : true,
"repairStation" : "",
"resources" : [
"item" : "FishRaw",
"amount" : 1
"item": "RawMeat",
"amount": 5
"item": "Honey",
"amount": 10
