Tool[]
Before being able to fish you must buy a fishing rod at the General Store. It costs $4000.

Use[]
To fish, position yourself at the edge of a suitable body of water. Press your "Use Tools" button (default Z on keyboard, X on X-box gamepad). You will cast your line into the water, and a bobber will appear. Then you must wait for a fish to bite. When one does, your fishing pole and bobber will start bobbing up and down rapidly in the water and the fishing pole will start wiggling. You have a short window of time to press your Use Tools button again to reel it in. If you do not reel it in in time, your line still remains in the water and usable, you just have to wait for another fish to bite. Fish bite on average every 10 game time minutes, more or less.

Quotes[]
Gabriel - "Hey, Do you like fishing? My dad used to fish a lot. One day he caught a huge salmon and the local paper made a story of it. I usually caught cans and boots."
Lee - " I caught some good fish the other day. Summer is a pretty good month for fishing. Just find a spot with some shade! "
