After 5 years, dirk_fishing v2 has been completely rewritten from the ground up. Almost nothing from v1 survives — this is a brand new resource that happens to share the same name.

Highlights

• Aim → cast → fight loop with a live reticle, casting minigame and Stardew-style bar-catch fight.

• 32 fish species — every single one has a bespoke 3D model (no reused props), with realistic in-hand sizing and rarity tiers.

• 13 rods, 14 reels, 14 lines, 24 hooks, 12 weights and 20+ baits, all editable live.

• Fishing zones, grid-based populations and a Fish Finder tablet that scans nearby waters.

• Interactive Guidebook — six tabs covering overview, collection, equipment, map, leaderboards and tournaments.

• Daily Challenges — randomised objectives that reset every 24 hours.

• Traps (Crab Pots) — passive baited pots with surface buoys, rope-pull minigame and stale-trap auto-expiry.

• Bait digging and fish gutting.

• Equipment shops, fish markets and a dedicated bait market — fully built-in, no external store dependency.

• Live Script Configurator — every fish, zone, permit, shop, tool and player level edited in-game with undo/redo and an audit log. No SQL, no Lua config edits, no resource restart.

Cinematic catch camera frames every fish before it hits your inventory.
