'''Tackle''' can be attached to the [[Iridium Rod]] or [[Advanced Iridium Rod]] to make it easier to catch [[fish]]. Most recipes unlock as the player's [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|fishing level]] increases. Most tackle can also be purchased from the [[Fish Shop]] once they are unlocked. Tackles have a durability bar, which decreases on use. Normally, they wear out and disappear after 20 nibbles by fish (indicated by "HIT" popping up on screen). Tackle does not wear out when catching junk items, specifically when catching [[Green Algae]], [[White Algae]], [[Seaweed]], [[Sea Jelly]], [[River Jelly]], [[Cave Jelly]], or [[Trash]].
<section begin="tackleuse" />
Only the [[Iridium Rod]] or the [[Advanced Iridium Rod]] can equip tackle. The Iridium Rod can only attach one tackle at a time, while the Advanced Iridium Rod can attach two. To attach tackle, left-click on the tackle, then right-click on the rod. To remove tackle, first right-click to remove any bait, then right-click to remove the tackle. For an Advanced Iridium Rod, the left tackle will be the first one removed.
Tackle does not stack in [[inventory]] or [[chest]]s; each tackle takes up one inventory slot.<section end="tackleuse" />

|{{Description|Treasure Hunter}}
|Increases treasure chance by 5%. While collecting a treasure chest, the progress bar will remain steady if the fish isn't within the fishing bar. If it is, it will still go up like usual. The player will get a perfect catch as long as the fish is only outside of the fishing bar while a treasure chest is being collected.

|[[Barbed Hook]]
|{{Description|Barbed Hook}}
|Makes the player's fishing bar "cling" to the fish, automatically going up or down to try to stay on the middle of the fish. It will only try to move when the bar is actually on the fish. The player can still manually control the bar but it's rather difficult, especially with slower fish. The more the fish darts up and down, the easier it is to move the fishing bar manually and the less effective the Barbed Hook is.

==Stacking==
When using the [[Advanced Iridium Rod]] with two tackles, the tackle effects will always stack if the tackles are different. If the tackles are the same, the tackle effects may stack depending on the tackle. Below is a list of the effects when two of the same tackle is equipped:
* 2 [[Spinner]]s: Reduces maximum delay before a nibble by 7.5 seconds, double the amount of time as with 1 Spinner.
* 2 [[Dressed Spinner]]s: Reduces maximum delay before a nibble by 15 seconds, double the amount of time as with 1 Dressed Spinner.
* 2 [[Trap Bobber]]s: The progress bar at the right decreases 50% slower when the fish isn't within the fishing bar, compared to 33% with 1 Trap Bobber.
* 2 [[Cork Bobber]]s: Increase the bar size by 48 pixels, double the amount as with 1 Cork Bobber.
* 2 [[Lead Bobber]]s: Prevents the bar from bouncing even more compared to 1 Lead Bobber.
* 2 [[Treasure Hunter]]s: Along with also preventing the fish from escaping when collecting treasures, treasure chance is increased by 10%, double the chance as with 1 Treasure Hunter.
* 2 [[Barbed Hook]]s: Makes the fishing bar cling to the catch even more compared to 1 Barbed Hook.
* 2 [[Curiosity Lure]]s: Provides no additional benefit compared to using 1 Curiosity Lure.
* 2 [[Quality Bobber]]s: Increases the quality of the fish caught by 2 levels, double the amount of levels as with 1 Quality Bobber.
* 2 [[Sonar Bobber]]s: Provides no additional benefit compared to using 1 Sonar Bobber.
==Profitability==
Unlike most items obtained by [[crafting]] of metals and wood in the game, tackle can be sold (both to [[Willy]] and via the [[Shipping|Shipping Bin]]). Several of these crafting recipes are actually profitable, depending on whether or not the player has the [[Mining#Mining Skill|Blacksmith profession]]:
* {{name|Sonar Bobber|class=inline}} (+{{price|280}} if the player doesn't have the Blacksmith profession, +{{price|220}} with Blacksmith)
* {{name|Trap Bobber|class=inline}} (+{{price|120}} if the player doesn't have the Blacksmith profession, +{{price|90}} with Blacksmith)
* {{name|Barbed Hook|class=inline}} (+{{price|70}} if the player doesn't have the Blacksmith profession, results in a loss with Blacksmith)
* {{name|Spinner|class=inline}} (+{{price|10}} if the player doesn't have the Blacksmith profession, results in a loss with Blacksmith)
* {{name|Cork Bobber|class=inline}} (+{{price|105}}, though pressing [[Slime]] into a [[Slime Egg]] and processing hardwood in the [[Wood Chipper]] results in slightly more profit on average.)
==History==
{{History|1.4|Tackles can now be attached to [[Tools#Fishing Poles|fishing rods]] directly from [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|treasure chests]]. Reduced sellback price for used tackle, so it can no longer be sold to [[Willy]] for full price. Fixed bug where tackle durability could be restored by right-clicking the tackle in [[inventory]].}}
{{History|1.5|Tackle no longer loses endurance when catching junk. Added [[Curiosity Lure]] and [[Quality Bobber]].}}
{{History|1.6|Added [[Sonar Bobber]]. [[Advanced Iridium Rod]] introduced which allows two tackles to be equipped at once.}}
