Palworld Instant Fishing Auto-Catch Mod v1.0

                    
Palworld’s fishing minigame drags out every single catch with a timing bar you have to babysit before the fish ever lands. Instant Fishing Auto-Catch skips that entirely, landing the fish the moment it bites. It ships as a single Pak file that adjusts the game’s own fishing system values, so there’s no extra tool or script layer involved. As a result, fishing turns into a quick resource stop instead of a repeated skill check.
What’s Included

Instant Catch on Bite: Skips the entire catch minigame and lands the fish the instant it takes the bait.
Full Bait Compatibility: Works across every bait tier in the game, so the instant catch applies no matter which bait you’re using.
Correct Pal Level Retention: Keeps the actual level of the caught Pal intact, even though the catch screen may briefly display level 0.

Why You Need This Mod
The fishing minigame adds a timing challenge to something that should just be a quick resource run. Consequently, stocking up on fish-based Pals or ingredients eats up far more time than it needs to. This mod removes that friction entirely. Therefore, every cast turns into an instant catch instead of a repeated mini-game.
How to Get Started

Download the mod and extract the archive to your PC.
Copy the .pak file from the extracted folder.
Navigate to Pal/Content/Paks/~mods in your Palworld installation folder.
Paste the .pak file into the ~mods folder.
Launch the game and cast a line to confirm the fish is caught instantly on bite.
To uninstall, remove the mod’s .pak file from the ~mods folder.

Good to Know
The catch screen may briefly show a caught Pal at level 0. However, the Pal’s actual level is applied correctly once it joins your party, so this is purely a display quirk. This mod is also compatible with Fish Instantly Respawn, since the two mods adjust different systems. It modifies the game’s fishing blueprint and bait data tables directly, so pairing it with other fishing-system mods is worth testing first.
