To cast a fishing rod into a body of water, hold down the Use Tool button (''i.e.'', the left mouse button on PC or the X button on Xbox). A meter appears, indicating how far the line will go. Release to cast. It is also possible to slightly alter the line's placement mid-cast with the movement keys, allowing you better control over aiming the cast.
When a fish bites, the bobble will wiggle wiggles and an exclamation point will appear appears above the player's head. Click the left mouse button (or the X button on Xbox) to start the mini-game.
The mini-game display contains a movable green rectangle that indicates the area of effect for your fishing line. The goal of the fishing mini-game is to keep the small fish icon within the green rectangle until the progress bar to the right is completely filled. If the fish's icon moves above or below the green rectangle, the progress bar decreases, and the fish escapes if the progress bar reaches the bottom.
