== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==

== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Mechanics ==
=== Equipment Basics ===
Angling requires the presence of an [[ProjectGorgon:Angling Pole|Angling Pole]] in your inventory ([[ProjectGorgon:Roshun the Traitor|Roshun the Traitor]] gives you one when you unlock the [[ProjectGorgon:Angling|Angling]] skill), as well as bait (Roshun also sells this, but at level 15 in Angling, you can begin making your own bait once trained). ('''Tip''': Making lots of bait out of small fish, including those you can catch with [[ProjectGorgon:Fishing|Fishing]] using your bare hands, such as [[ProjectGorgon:Clownfish|Clownfish]] and [[ProjectGorgon:Grapefish|Grapefish]], can be a quick way to level [[ProjectGorgon:Angling|Angling]] for a while.) 

Each bait allows for one line cast. Then you need to stand near a fishable body of water. With the [[ProjectGorgon:Angling|Angling]] skill in your combat bar, select the "Angling" ability to cast your line.

After a random amount of time, something will appear on the end of the line, and if it is a fish it will be circling. 

Assuming it is a fish, wait until a visual particle effect appears on you and/or on the fish. That specific particle effect is associated with one of the three angling commands: Fish Reel, Fish Juke, Fish Troll. You need to deduce through trial and error which particle effect is associated with which angling command. Each specific type of fish has its own three particle effect / angling ability associations, but they are always consistent for the same species of fish. (For example, for [[ProjectGorgon:Perch|Perch]], the three associations are purple smoke erupting from your head and lightning above the fish, stack of flowers rising from the fish, and colorful yellow and purple sparkles on both the fish and your pole, corresponding to Reel, Juke, and Troll.)

If you pick the incorrect angling ability, you will hear a buzzer and must wait a few seconds before you can try again. Too many wrong guesses and you will run out of time and the fish escapes. If you pick the correct ability to match the particle effect, a dot under the left side of the Angling countdown bar will fill. Once all the available dots have been filled, you catch the fish (or item) and it is placed in your inventory.

Some items only have one dot, such as low-level crates and "pretend fish." Some angling targets, particularly at higher levels or for special items, will have multiple particle patterns for the same angling skill, so watch out for that.
=== Equipment Details ===
===== Types of Bait =====
There are three types of bait. Recipes for Basic and Good bait can both be learned from [[ProjectGorgon:Roshun the Traitor|Roshun the Traitor]], however all three bait recipes can also be learned by completing specific Angling Quests; this may be preferable as Roshun has fairly high Favor requirements to teach the player bait recipes.  Additionally, while the Expert Bait recipe is a level 45 recipe, Expert tier fishing as a whole requires Angling level 60 at minimum due to quest requirements and ability prerequisites.
* {{Item|Basic Bait}} - The simplest kind of bait that can be used with angling.
* {{Item|Good Bait}} - A more complex kind of bait that can be used with angling.
* {{Item|Expert Bait}} - The most complex kind of bait that can be used with angling.

===== Types of Poles =====
* {{Item|Angling Pole}} - A typical orcish-style fishing device. A very long string is stored on a winchable spool. Bizarre.
=====Angling Accessories =====
* {{Item|Angler's Luck Charm}} - A small tasteful Enoyos amulet. - Angling Hook-Fish Time -1 Second.
* {{Item|Angler's Determination Charm}} - A large, reasonably discrete Enoyos amulet. - Angling Hook-Fish Time -2 Seconds.
* {{Item|Ring of Angling}} - A thin ring made of white gold. - Angling Capture Time +1 Second.

=== Fishing Zones ===
Fishing Zones, sometimes refereed to as ''Allowed Fishing Zones'', are a system used by the game to break up which fish and items can be angled within a zone. Most zones have multiple Fishing Zones. There are 14 Fishing Zones identifiable by quests, these are identified by single-word names. Zones which have spaces in their names are player-identified and do not have associated quests. Some zones are quest-specific and are otherwise identical to their surroundings. An example of this is ''EltibuleWaterfall'' and ''Eltibule West Lake''.  Listed distributions are estimates determined via large-sample empirical testing (100+ fish).
