The Daily Neopets › Neopets Articles › Ye Olde Fishing Vortex
Welcome to the underwater fishing cavern! This trapped air pocket has created an underwater lake with all kinds of strange and wondrous sea creatures, as well as some... other interesting things. Take a place on the jetty and start fishing! But be patient. You might have to wait a while between catches.
Everyone loves fishing and it's much simpler in Neopia than in real life. Just click here 
to go fishing! Once there, just click on Reel In Your Line and it will show you what item you caught.
The amount of time you need to wait before fishing again is random, but is usually in the 12 to 24 hour range.
Every time you fish, you have a good chance that your pet's fishing skill level will be raised. Although this does not happen every time, it does happen quite often. You can see your fishing level when ever you go to the main 'Ye Olde Fishing Vortex' page .
Most of the things you will fish up (especially at lower levels) are pretty much useless. If you think it may be worth something, look it up on the shop wizard. Chances are it won't be worth much, so don't get your hopes up too high. One exception, however, is the Bag of Broken Neopoints, which can be sold on the shop wizard for just under 2000 NP, or taken to the Toy Repair Shop and will usually return a profit. However, selling it in your shop is almost always the best decision and will yield you the most profit.
Now on to the most important part... The Winnings!!! Below is a list of all the items that are possible to win, along with the skill levels your pet needs to be in order to catch them. Hover your mouse over the items to see their names.
Molten Borovan Red
There are a few special items that you can win from fishing. They are detailed below.
The Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water will turn the pet that drinks it into a random color. This item has one use and you cannot tell which color your pet will turn until after you use the flask. Also, if you use this item on a Buzz, you will not get the "Buzzin" avatar.
If you use the Irritable Genie-in-a-Bottle your pet will gain 1-3 levels. This is a one use item.
The Mysterious Swirly Potion will turn the pet that drinks it into a random limited edition pet. This item is one use and you cannot tell which limited edition pet your pet will turn into until after you use it. Also, the color of your pet will stay the same unless it is not available for the other pet at which time it will turn into a random basic color (e.g. A Tyrannian Moehog turns into a Blue Kiko, because no Tyrannian Kiko colour is available).
If you are very lucky, you might even receive a paint brush from the fishing vortex!
You can also recieve a transmogrification potion from the vortex!
