Fishing is an essential survival mechanic in Escape from Duckov that provides valuable resources and quest completion items. This comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know about fishing mechanics, bait preparation, fishing rod usage, and mastering the challenging QTE mini-game.

1. Bait Preparation and Crafting

Basic Bait Crafting

Standard Bait Recipe: Common fishing bait can be crafted at the workbench using 3 Earthworms + 2 Cookies. This is the primary method for obtaining bait in the early game.

Fishing Store Purchase: After completing a certain number of fishing quests (specifically the "Path of the Fish King 3" quest), you can purchase bait directly from the fishing store, making bait acquisition much more convenient. Check our quest database for all fishing-related missions.

Obtaining Earthworms

Digging Requirements: To collect earthworms, you need to have a shovel in your inventory (no equipment slot required). Earthworms are obtained by searching digging points scattered across various maps.

Digging Point Locations: Digging points appear at fixed locations on each map. Search these spots while carrying a shovel to harvest earthworms.

Yield Rate: Each digging point yields 1-3 earthworms, so multiple digging points may be needed to gather sufficient materials for bait crafting.
