Specialized Fishing Hooks for Lava, Ice, the End, and More in Tide 2
Specialized fishing hooks for lava, ice, the End, and more expand what you can catch in Tide 2 by letting you target environments that a plain hook cannot handle. Each hook is made at a crafting table with a shaped recipe, and each one pairs a distinctive core material with iron or other ingredients. The sections below list every hook and its exact recipe.
The Basic Hook
Before crafting any of the specialized hooks, you need the standard 
Fishing Hook. It is the simplest of the set and serves as the baseline for the mod's fishing gear.
- Fishing Hook — 2
Iron Nugget plus 1 
Cobblestone
The recipe is shaped, so the arrangement of the ingredients in the crafting grid matters.
Fiery Hook
The 
Fiery Hook is built around a 
Blaze Rod, making it the hook to reach for when fire is part of the picture.
- Fiery Hook — 1 Blaze Rod plus 3
Iron Ingot
The single blaze rod supplies the fiery core, while the three iron ingots form the rest of the hook's body.
Lavaproof Hook
The 
Lavaproof Hook uses 
Obsidian as its defining material, which fits its role of standing up to molten environments.
- Lavaproof Hook — 1
Gold Ingot plus 3 Obsidian
Note that this recipe calls for a gold ingot rather than iron, setting it apart from most of the other specialized hooks.
Permafrost Hook
The 
Permafrost Hook is crafted with 
Blue Ice, tying it to frozen conditions.
- Permafrost Hook — 1 Blue Ice plus 3 Iron Ingot
Blue Ice is the rarest form of ice, so gathering the core material for this hook takes more effort than the others.
Twilight Hook
The 
Twilight Hook centers on a 
Clock, giving it a time-themed component.
- Twilight Hook — 1 Clock plus 3 Iron Ingot
A clock is normally used to tell day from night, and here it serves as the hook's special ingredient.
Hook of the Depths
The 
Hook of the Depths is the most demanding recipe of the group, requiring two rare materials.
- Hook of the Depths — 4
Crying Obsidian plus 1 
Dragon's Breath
Crying Obsidian is obtained from ruined portals and bartering, and Dragon's Breath comes from the Ender Dragon's breath attack, so this hook represents a significant investment.
Crafting Notes
Every hook in this set uses a shaped recipe, meaning the position of each ingredient in the crafting grid is fixed. If a recipe will not complete, rearrange the items until they match the pattern.
- The Fishing Hook is the only one that uses Cobblestone and Iron Nugget instead of full ingots.
- The Lavaproof Hook is the only one that uses Gold Ingot.
- The Fiery Hook is the only one that uses a Blaze Rod.
- The Permafrost Hook is the only one that uses Blue Ice.
- The Twilight Hook is the only one that uses a Clock.
- The Hook of the Depths is the only one that uses Crying Obsidian and Dragon's Breath.
Planning Your Hooks
Because each hook has a different core ingredient, the one you build depends on what you have on hand and where you plan to fish. The Fishing Hook is cheap and easy to make from common materials. The Fiery Hook and Lavaproof Hook both lean on Nether and volcanic resources. The Permafrost Hook requires Blue Ice, which is found in frozen biomes. The Twilight Hook needs a Clock, which takes gold and redstone to craft. The Hook of the Depths sits at the top of the list in cost, since it consumes four Crying Obsidian and a bottle of Dragon's Breath.
Work through the recipes in the order that matches your available materials, and keep in mind that the three iron ingots shared by most of these recipes are a constant cost across the set. Gather your core ingredients first, then fill in the iron, and each hook will come together at the crafting table.
