Preparing common catches at a Cooking Pot
Combining a standard freshwater catch such as a Bass, Trout, or Atlantic Cod at a Cooking Pot yields one Cooked Fish. Ingesting the meal provides the Well Fed buff for 8 minutes, boosting defense by 2, damage by 5%, melee speed by 5%, critical chance by 2%, and movement speed by 20%.
Fueling early exploration with basic angled catches
Because Bass and Trout bite frequently in surface lakes even when using basic rods and low-tier bait, Cooked Fish serves as a steady supply of stat buffs during early mining expeditions. Players angling for quest fish or crates accumulate dozens of common catches, making this dish a practical staple to maintain health regeneration and stat bonuses throughout pre-Hardmode.
Trivia
- Cooked Fish provides 8 minutes of Well Fed, offering three more minutes of buff duration than Blackened Fish prepared over a campfire from the same fish.
