Fishing
Bedrock Reimagined keeps the rod's familiar 85% fish / 10% junk / 5% treasure split but replaces every pool with custom loot, and stacks a 10% surprise chance on top that turns a normal catch into a live creature. Jungle biomes use a stripped-down version of the pools, and the rarest creatures are gated by ocean biomes and per-player cooldowns.
How a catch is decided
Every successful rod tug runs through two layers. First the rod's normal table picks one of three pools by outer weight, then BR's fishing script rolls a 10% chance to replace the item with a live creature. That means roughly 9% of catches become a creature drawn from one of six tiers, and the other 90% go through the regular pool roll for an item.
- Fish pool: 85 weight (≈ 85% before Luck of the Sea). Replaced by Jungle Fish in jungle biomes.
- Junk pool: 10 weight (≈ 10%). Replaced by Jungle Junk in jungle biomes; the standard pool is what the BR overhaul expands the most.
- Treasure pool: 5 weight (≈ 5%). Same pool in every biome. Luck of the Sea shifts more of the outer weight to treasure and away from fish and junk.
- Surprise creature: 10% override. Independent of pool. If it fires, the rolled item is removed and a creature spawns at the bobber instead. The other 90% of catches still produce the rolled item normally.
Junk pool
BR's junk pool is the bulk of the rewrite. Alongside vanilla junk it now includes Shark drops, Bedrock Reimagined plants (flowered lilypads, dead and dried dead kelp, dead seagrass), the full Colored Torch set at rare weight, Rope, Moose Hide, Bones, Goblin Bile, and a Waterskin among others.

Treasure pool
Treasure is the rarest pool but holds the most valuable catches. The fishing overhaul promoted the Giant Shark Tooth from junk to treasure and stacked the Shark Fin food line, the Ring Band, and a Sky Star Fragment in on top of the existing trims, runes, mob heads, the Cape of Ocean Waves, and a damaged Sea Witch Wand.

Pool total weight: 75. "In Pool" is the share within this pool; "Per Catch" folds in the 5% outer slice and the 10% surprise override that replaces an item with a creature.
Fish pool
The standard fish pool stays close to vanilla (Cod, Salmon, Tropical Fish / Clownfish, and Pufferfish), and is the most common outcome of any catch outside jungles.
| Item | Weight | In Pool | Per Catch | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fish | 60 | 60% | 46% | |
| Salmon | 25 | 25% | 19% | |
| Pufferfish | 13 | 13% | 9.9% | |
| Clownfish | 2 | 2.0% | 1.5% |
Pool total weight: 100. "In Pool" is the share within this pool; "Per Catch" folds in the 85% outer slice and the 10% surprise override that replaces an item with a creature.
Jungle pools
Fishing in any jungle biome swaps the fish and junk pools for stripped-down jungle variants. The fish pool drops Pufferfish and Tropical Fish; the junk pool keeps the kelp, lilypad, and bamboo entries but drops ocean-themed shark loot, the colored torches, and most cosmetic clutter.

Surprise creature catches
10% of all successful catches drop the rolled item and spawn a creature at the bobber instead. The creature is picked from six weighted tiers (Common, Mild, Mid, High Risk, Jackpot, Ultra Rare), and biome and per-player cooldowns gate the rarer ones.
- Biome filter: High Risk, Jackpot, and Ultra Rare tiers are disabled in jungle biomes. Within other tiers, ocean-only entries (Drowned, Guardian, Elder Guardian) only appear in vanilla ocean biomes.
- Shark cooldown: 15 minutes per player. Catching any Great White, Hammerhead, or Tiger Shark blocks the Jackpot tier entirely until the timer expires.
- Sulfur Fish cooldown: 3 minutes per player. Hitting one removes Sulfur Fish from the High Risk tier until the cooldown clears, but Guardians can still spawn.
- The Common-tier Penguin entry picks uniformly from all five penguin species, so the per-species chance is the row's chance divided by 5.
- The Jackpot Shark entry likewise picks uniformly among Great White, Hammerhead, and Tiger.
- Per-catch percentages assume an ocean biome with no cooldowns active, the most generous setup. Cooldowns and jungle biomes redistribute weight toward whichever tiers are still available.
