Usage[]
The Fishing Cage requires at least level 31 Hauling in order to be held. If the player is not the correct level, it will move to a different inventory slot, or will fall to the ground if there is no room in the inventory.
Fishing behavior[]
The Fishing Cage can be used (right-click) to place it in the world. When a Fishing Cage is sitting on the bottom of a body of water, it will periodically collect items inside it. Each tick, there is a 1 in 5000 (0.02%) chance for the Fishing Cage to check for a catch. When this happens, there is then a 50% chance for something to actually be 'caught' if the cage is in flowing water, or a 33% chance if the cage is in still water.
A Fishing Cage can hold a maximum of 3 stacks of items before it becomes full and needs emptied (the cage itself will only show 3 items inside it visually, but more items might exist in the cage). The items that can be collected by the Fishing Cage are shown in the table below.
Emptying the cage of its items is done by right-clicking the filled cage, which will retrieve all items and give the player the Fishing Cage back, which will remove one durability point from it. The player can also punch the cage to empty its contents, which will cause its items to drop into the world, but the Fishing Cage itself will be lost.
Hauling xp will be given to players who empty the cage by right-clicking. Punching the cage will not give Hauling xp.
If the player wants to retrieve an empty Fishing Cage, the player can do so by right-clicking it (punching it will get rid of it without dropping the Fishing Cage item). Retrieving an empty Fishing Cage will still deplete its durability.
Only the person who placed down the Fishing Cage originally can pick it back up again, or pick up the items inside it. If the Fishing Cage belongs to nobody, it can be picked up by anyone.
Other behavior[]
Fishing Cage entities are completely solid, and can be stood on.
If a Fishing Cage is placed outside of water, it will eventually pop off the ground and revert to its item form. This will not reduce the Fishing Cage's durability. Any items that are in the Fishing Cage will also drop when this happens.
