What is the smallest body of water I can fish from?
As I jet about Terraria, trying to fish, I find that some bodies of water don't seem to be large enough to fish from.
Whether they are too shallow or just too small I do not know; so therein lies the question:
What are the dimensions required of a body of liquid in Terraria to make it fish-able?
Best Answer
I believe from what I've picked up, that the minimum number of 'blocks' of water needed to fish is about 70 (total number of 'blocks': e.g. a 7 by 10 block lake; this is about the smallest I've been able to catch anything in), with 300+ being optimal (i.e. no penalties). To be taken with a grain of salt as this is mostly derived from anecdotal evidence.

Answer 2
To not fish junk, you'll want a lake with at least 300 blocks of water. I usually achieve this by digging a 10x30 hole and using the water duping bug to fill it.
