Fishing in the Lego game mode borrows from the previously introduced fishing system in the Battle Royale game mode and simply features a LEGO Fishing Rod that players can use on their adventures. To acquire a Fishing Rod, players need a Crafting Bench, which can be upgraded to unlock the ability to craft higher rarities of Fishing Rods.

Depending on the rarity of the Fishing Rod you want, the ingredients required to craft a Fishing Rod are listed below:

• Common Fishing Rod: Wooden Rod (x1), Wolf Claw (x1), Cord (x2)
• Uncommon Fishing Rod: Silk Thread (x1), Knotroot Rod (x2), Cord (3), Wolf Claw (x3)
• Rare Fishing Rod: Drawstring (x1), Wool Thread (x2), Flexwood Rod (x3), Sand Claw (x3)
• Epic Fishing Rod: Drawstring (x2), Heavy Wool Thread (x3), Arctic Claw (x3), Frostpine Rod (x4)

Additionally, to increase the chances of catching better fish, players will need a Bait Bucket, which allows them to spawn a fishing hole in a spot of their choice. Much like the Fishing Rod, the Bait Bucket in Lego Fortnite has a variety of rarities that can have an impact on the efficiency of your fishing endeavors.

While the Common Bait Bucket can be crafted at a Food Processor using a Fish Fillet, in order to craft higher Uncommon, Rare, and Epic rarities, players will require a Juicer in their Lego Fortnite world.
