It doesn&rsquo;t get much more basic, as players can cast out a line, attach some bait and wait for a nibble on their pole.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This easy skill has been a problem for many players in the early going, however. Whether it&rsquo;s trying to catch a large salmon or find some specific bait in order to catch a fish, the fishing skill isn&rsquo;t as simple as originally thought. In regard to catching a specific fish, one such slippery creature that players haven&rsquo;t been able to catch very often is a tadpole.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The pre-stage for a fully grown frog, a tadpole isn&rsquo;t what many would expect to be difficult to catch in New World. However, the tiny creature has caused some trouble as players continue casting their line into the water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Catching tadpoles in New World&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/b6eZNBCkQ-UeUlZoppybyHSJM6ajacIv1ry4CfyZ5-E\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMi9OZXdXb3JsZC90YWRwb2xlc19uZXdfd29ybGRfMi5wbmc\" alt=\"how to catch tadpoles in new world\" width=\"970\" height=\"546\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">Fishing is easy to pick up but hard to master in New World. (Picture: Amazon)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For starters, players need to acquire a fishing pole. This can be easily done by talking to Master Fisher Michael Shield, who&rsquo;s located on a dock in the western part of Windsward. He offers you a quest upon meeting him to find five woodlouse bait. This bait can be found in various bushes across New World.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once you&rsquo;ve delivered the goods to the fisherman, he will give you a fishing pole as a reward. As you progress in New World, a quest might come across your journal that requires the catching of tadpoles. Many players have no idea how to do this, as tadpoles aren&rsquo;t too regularly caught in rivers or lakes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To catch a tadpole, players need to find a body of freshwater. For bait, fireflies have worked the best thus far but players have also reported that casting a line in streams without bait has yielded a tadpole as well. Once the line is out, all players have to do is wait for a bite, reel in the catch and see if it&rsquo;s a tadpole.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/new-world\/how-to-upgrade-your-camp-in-new-world\">How to upgrade your camp in New World<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If it&rsquo;s not, then you just have to keep trying until you catch one of the prepubescent frogs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fishing is one of the many skills that players can level up in New World.
