Using Bobbers

Bobber items must be attached to your fishing rod in order to take effect.

Tide

With Tide installed, you can use the Angling Table to attach bobbers. Place your fishing rod in the rod slot (top left), place your bobber in the bobber slot (middle right), and then take the new fishing rod.
