As mentioned, while you may not need to make a Bait Bucket in LEGO Fortnite, it does make fishing easier. Having it will increase the odds of catching fish quickly and save you a lot of time and effort.

To use the Bait Bucket, all you need to do is select and lob it into a water body. Once it hits the water, fish will surround it. This will make it easier for you to catch fish in LEGO Fortnite.

Keep in mind, different factors such as time of day, type of water body, and biome affect the kind of fish you can find. As such, using a Bait Bucket at the wrong time of day will not yield the type of food you may be looking for.

Furthermore, since there are different rarities of Fishing Rods, they play a role as well when it comes to fishing. As such, having the best rarity of the Bait Bucket and the Fishing Rod will make it a lot easier to fish and obtain exactly what you are looking for.
