Fishing

Fishing is a Game Mechanic in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was introduced in Chapter 2: Season 1.

Functionality
Players can fish using a Fishing Rod to catch fish or other items. Harpoon Guns or Explosives can be used on Fishing Holes to gain different loot. Fishing in holes provides the best loot, whereas exploding them provides regular loot. Players can catch fish, materials, weapons and ammo from Fishing.

Locations

 * Calm Water (Explosives and Harpoon Guns can not be used here) using a Fishing Rod or a Pro Fishing Rod. This is slow and gives more common items.
 * Fishing Spots using any tools or explosives that give rarer items in greater quantity.

Fishing Related Items
To fish you can use different objects, in addition to explosives.

Trivia

 * It is possible to fish in all bodies of water, including the stacks in Steamy Stacks and fountains in The Authority.
 * Fishing Spots located in the ocean typically provide better loot.
 * Players have a 1 in 1 Million Chance of obtaining the Mythic Goldfish from any form of fishing (except explosions).
