Monster Hunter World - Angling for a Bite Trophy / Achievement Guide - Catch your first fish. (Fishing Tutorial)

You automatically have a Fishing Rod in your inventory as soon as you finish the prologue (when you reach Astera for the first time and get your weapons). It's a fixed item in the inventory that you will always have. Now go on an expedition, for example in the Ancient Forest, find a little lake or go to the ocean where fish are in the water. Select the fishing road by pressing D-Pad Left/right , Square (PS4) / X (XB1) to ready it and L2 + R2 (LB + RB) to aim it at the water. As soon as a fish bites (the fake food starts moving), immediately press Circle (PS4) / B (XB1) to reel in the fish. An easy fishing spot is on the Ancient Forest map, Southwest Camp (1). Just a little east of the camp you can see a pool of water on the map.
