Thanks to the latest Fortnite update, fishing is now in the LEGO mode, unlocking even more possibilities to progress your village. Of course, you’ll want to get your hands on the best fish in the game and crafting Bait Buckets can help you get there.
The key to catching the rarest fish is all in the bait and the rarer your Bait Bucket, the higher your chances of catching legendary fish. According to Epic Games, any legendary fish you obtain should be saved for another day since “there will be a way to display them in a future update.”
