Make sure to check the letter that’s located in front of Vault 76, near the two treasure hunters. That’s a key part of the questline to kick off your fishing adventure!

That helps a lot! But I’m still wondering about activating the fishing rug. Any further advice?

If you fast travel back to Vault 76, head down the stairs and look for a letter on a box. Reading that letter will activate the whole fishing mechanic for you.

I read that letter, but I’m still not sure how to actually start fishing. Any tips?
