Fishing

Fishing is a new work type added by the Vanilla Fishing Expanded module for the Vanilla Cuisine Expanded series. It appears in the Work tab after Hunting and before Construction.

Colonists who are capable of Animals can be assigned to fish. Colonists will attempt to fish at the nearest unoccupied Fishing Zone. The speed at which a fishing operation is completed is determined by the Animals skill. Colonists will automatically haul their catch to the best stockpile, even if they are incapable of haulingneeds verification (can be configured to drop on the ground in the mod options.)

The type of fish caught is determined by the "Choose catch" selection, whether the Fishing Zone is in a river, lake, or coastal area, and the biome. There is always a small chance that something other than a fish can be caught.
