Krafties fishing can now be enjoyed by all players in our fully-featured beta release! All acquired fish, items, and kraftie creatures are yours to keep even after we’ve finalized things, so grab a pole and get ready to explore the dark depths of the Krafties seas! We’ll of course be ironing out a few kinks here and there as things progress, but the system has been lovingly crafted and tweaked to slimy, scaly (almost)perfection. Open up your browser, pop open the Fishing Center, and get casting!
- Level up to catch over a hundred varieties of fish of all types and sizes. Keep them for yourself, turn them into various grades of fillets for food/alchemy/trades, or sell them to other players!
- Populate aquariums with different combinations of fish and decorations, and then care for them to have your fishy friends dig up usable items. The better the fish, decorations, and combinations you choose the better your results will be!
- Catch brand new species of aquatic kraftie creatures to expand your ever growing power and status as a handler!
There are two new types of in-world objects we’ve created to allow people to experience the fishing system: Krafties Fishing Holes and Krafties Fishing Posts.
Krafties Fishing Holes allow one player to face them and cast a fishing pole into their depths at a time. Every player who initially funded the fishing system by purchasing one of the Mermaid or Shark Stufflies from Krafties has a Fishing Hole available, which can be obtained from a Krafties Fishing Hole Distribution Validator object (one Fishing Hole per stufflie purchase). Additional holes are available for L$500.

Krafties Fishing Posts can be purchased for L$500 from a Krafties Fishing Post Distribution Validator object.

There’s a new Fishing API available that works with both of the fishing objects! If you’d like to make scripted tools, contest boards, etc. that work with the Krafties Fishing system please see http://krafties.com/wiki/index.php?title=Krafties_Fishing_API
If you’d like to sell your fish to other Krafties players, or give them out as gifts, head on over to Krafties Island and pick up some Krafties Fish Packages. These in-world objects can hold a fish for transferring, or act as vendors for selling those super ultra rare fish you’re bound to discover.
A huge thank you goes out to our fishing funders! Every funder now has one fishing hole available for every purchase they made of a mermaid/shark stufflie, along with a special Funder Pole item!
Fishing Center Rundown
Some happy fishies in a happy tank. Awww!
The Tackle Shop, where you’ll get your first free pole. Upgrades are available at the cost of fishing levels, Energy, or L$. New aquarium tanks can be obtained here as well, along with many exciting future possibilities!
The My Gear section, where you can activate fishing poles, view your bait levels, and clean your tanks. All items associated with fishing are accessible here! When activated, poles appear in your hand in-world, ready for you to cast using a Krafties Fishing Hole or Krafties Fishing Post!
This is the Fish Bank! Every fish you catch will go here first, and then you decide what to do with them. This is where you’ll go to add fish to your tanks, release the little guys, prepare them to get valuable Fish Fillet items, etc.
There’s an excited fish in the tank, better click it quick!
Our excited fishy friend dug up an item bubble. Click it to pop it and see what’s inside!
Looks like he dug up another decoration. Here’s the Decorate menu, where decorations can be dragged into your tanks and positioned however you like. Additionally, fish may dig up usable items, or even aquatic kraftie creatures on rare occasions!
