The Fishing Robot is one of the five robot types. It needs a water source within its radius and catches one fish per operation.
Getting it#
- Reach level 5 in Fishing Mastery (any element), then unlock the fishing type in the Robot Shop for $15,000.
- Buy a robot for $60,000. The rarity (Standard 75%, Legendary 20%, Mythic 5%) is rolled on purchase.
- Deploy it on your island from its Manage Robot menu. The same Mastery level 5 is required to deploy.
What it does#
- Needs a still water source block inside its radius with air or water above it. Without one the robot does nothing.
- Each operation catches exactly one fish, picked from the weights below.
- Has the slowest base interval of all robots: 20 seconds.
- Does not give Fishing Mastery experience.
Output#
One fish per operation, chosen by weight: cod 60%, salmon 25%, pufferfish 13%, tropical fish 2%.
Work speed#
Base interval 20 seconds. The interval is divided by Speed x Efficiency x Activity Bonus x rarity Performance (Standard x1.0, Legendary x1.35, Mythic x1.75). The table assumes Speed, Efficiency and Activity Bonus are all at the level shown (each level multiplies by 1.1):
| Upgrade level (each of the three) | Standard | Legendary | Mythic |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 20.000 s | 14.815 s | 11.429 s |
| 1 | 15.026 s | 11.131 s | 8.586 s |
| 2 | 11.289 s | 8.363 s | 6.451 s |
| 3 | 8.482 s | 6.283 s | 4.847 s |
| 4 | 6.373 s | 4.720 s | 3.641 s |
| 5 | 4.788 s | 3.547 s | 2.736 s |
Capacity (x1.15 per level, rounded) is how many operations happen each time: 1 at base and levels 1 to 2, 2 operations at levels 3 to 5. Radius grows from 3 to 8 blocks and built-in storage from 1,728 to 4,608 items over five levels each. See robot upgrades for all costs and requirements.
Tips#
- Build a small pool with a water source next to the robot.
- The catch rates (cod 60, salmon 25, pufferfish 13, tropical fish 2) are fixed; upgrades only speed it up.
