The Fish Magnet is a chunky red-and-white horseshoe magnet. Hold the attack/fire button, and all dead fish in the vicinity will lift off the ground and fly straight to your hands, floating in a glowing blue field while you move around. Release the button, and the entire catch will drop right at your feet.
Perfect for quickly gathering your haul after using dynamite, clearing the beach after a boss fight, or simply launching thirty fish at a friend.
Features:
- Hold to Attract: Dead fish within range fly toward the magnet and hover nearby.
- Carry Your Catch: Walk, run, jump, or board a boat — the cloud of fish follows you wherever you go.
- Release to Drop: Let go of the button, and the fish drop naturally right where you want them.
- Closest Fish Priority: The magnet always prioritizes objects closest to you first.
- Custom Low-Poly Model: Crafted to match the game's visual style, complete with its own inventory icon.
- Magnetic Field Effect: Active magnet emits pulsing blue electric arcs from both poles.
- Fully Configurable: Adjust range, pull speed, price, field visuals, and more (most settings can be tweaked in real-time while the game is running).
How to Get:
- Use the console command: /spawn fishmagnet
Does NOT Replace the Pistol:
Under the hood, the mod is built on the game's pistol mechanics, but it does not remove or replace the weapon:
- Pistols still spawn, appear in shops, and shoot normally. Weapons in your existing saves remain untouched.
- The magnet cannot be fitted with weapon upgrades — attachment and ammo vendors will refuse to service it, preventing you from wasting money on items like laser sights.
Multiplayer:
- Fully functional in co-op for both host and clients. Whoever holds the magnet controls it, and the fish movement is visible to all players.
- Utilizes the game's native physics synchronization.
- Every player who wants to use the magnet must have the mod installed.
Installation:
- Install BepInEx 5 (x64) into the How to Fish root folder (where How to Fish.exe is located).
- Launch the game once so BepInEx can generate its folders, then close it.
- Extract the FishMagnet folder from the archive into: How to Fish/BepInEx/plugins/
- The final file path should look like: How to Fish/BepInEx/plugins/FishMagnet/FishMagnet.dll
- Launch the game.
