How to get Fishing at The Pond (Fishing level 1, Feather Bait)

Herring is the first of Kintara's five fish, caught at The Pond. It is the game's original generic fish, renamed when Fishing became a full skill — the same item, same stacks, same Marketplace listings as before, just under a new name. Nothing owned by existing players changed.

Cooking Herring converts it to Cooked Herring, which heals 5 HP — or, on a failed cook, to Burnt Herring, which is junk. Cooked Herring does nothing in The Dunes: the heat blocks every cooked fish there, and cacti is the only food that heals in the sand.

Cooking any fish is a roll against your Cooking level — the burn chance starts at 30% (level 5 and below) and slides down toward, but never reaches, 0% (5% at level 40). The Roast Pit shows your exact current burn chance.

Uses

  • Cooked Herring can be traded up for Trout Bait (10 Herring, raw or cooked, for 5 Trout Bait) at Old Fisher or Dockhand Maren.
