HellKitten133 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) I am using a mod that lets me run a restaurant and sell food so to cut costs I try to grow and catch my own supply. Fish is a great start but I don't want to go swimming to get them and there doesn't seem to be any mods for SE that add a mod with depth. There is only one fishing mod on Nexus and doesn't do much and compared to just going into the water grabbing the fish it sucks. (It's not a bad mod just isn't effective and lacks a lot.)I want fishing rods, fishing nets, and maybe cages. Also the ability to fish at any body of water or at least have a great deal of dedicated fishing zones at major hold docks, rivers, lakes, and ponds. Maybe swamps?If possible can it be compatible with Complete Alchemy and Cooking overhaul? That mod adds a lot of new bugs. xD Please&Thankyous!

psycros Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) Actual fishing in Skyrim would be fantastic. They have fishing rods and other paraphernalia laying around and you can encounter fishermen right at the start of the game - the fact that nobody has done this already is really kind of baffling. I'd say that any river should be fishable for salmon and whatever else is normally in there. Other than mudcraps, salmon and slaughterfish I really don't know what other water critters are in the game. I suspect you'd need to add a few different species including eels to make it work. Something like this would go fantastically with CACO if a patch were created. Still bodies like ponds should probably have a different variety of fish than rivers, or at least a different ratio of likely catches. I freely admit to being a fishing nerd in MMOs and in a beautiful game like Skyrim I really miss that. I suspect it wouldn't even be that hard to add fishing-related quests. The only real issue for me is advancement: logically there should be a fishing skill. I've tried to read up on it I'm still not sure if its possible to add more skills to the game or if there's a hard limit and you'd be forced to replace an existing skill with a new one.

There are a lot of mods that use this style in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, its integrated into Hunting in Skyrim! How did I miss this?? I'm assuming this is the one that OP says lacks depth, but Hunting in Skyrim is pretty darn deep so...I dunno. Maybe the mod author was limited by the engine and couldn't give the fishies nearly as much love as all them animals I used to skin :tongue: Also, there's a couple more that apparently were never ported from Oldrim:https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/16139https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/65613 Edited April 11, 2019 by psycros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of mods that use this style in fact. I use Hunterborn which is very nice hunting mod but that fishing mod only adds a fishing pole and has to use vanilla bugs for bait. That isn't to bad but it has compatibility issues and that is literally all it adds. If it had a skill system with the higher and more you fish the faster you catch or sumthin then that would be great. Also again a way to catch multiple fishes at once like with the nets as well as a passive way with cages would add so much more. Also I don't port stuff. I am not installing CK to do that and then having to fix whatever breaks on the new Skyrim. I wont maintain any ported mods or go through permission process for it.
