Already known for excellence in gaming tips, here is another comprehensive guide as we look to solve one of the stranded deep difficulties. We also will show you how to use fishing rod as well.
As a survival game, you will need all the materials to help you survive through the Ocean and Island. So many craftable items like lashing (which you’d always need), speargun (which you will use in fighting some of the deadly animals on and off the shores), campfire (which will serve in a different capacity – be it for boiling or lighting), leather, etc. These are all survival items that help you stay alive in the game and you need them.
Fish Trap and its Use
Like many other craftable items in stranded deep, Fish Trap is one of them. It is one of those survival items the is built using a few materials on the Island. So, how do fish traps work in stranded deep? There are lots of things you can use in the fish trap but it is primarily made to catch fish. However, it can be updated to catch other aquatic animals such as crayfish, and crabs, etc. Generally, like what we all experienced, the deeper you go – the bigger the fishes you and the closer to Island you get – the smaller the fishes you are expected to trap.

How to Use Fish Trap in Stranded Deep
This equally include how to use fishing rod stranded deep. Placing the trap is quite easy but requires different configurations on different platforms. In console (Xbox and PS4), tap on L2/LT buttons or right mouse button on PC to drag the trap into the water.
To set the trap tap on the “E” key on PC, the square button on PS4, or X on Xbox One. Before you’d need a bait on the trap to catch fish but that is long gone as you only need to set it this time.
Remember, for bigger fish (which is what everyone will like) you need to place your trap in deeper water, but for smaller fishes (if you’d like that too), then get close to the Island (the shallow area).
