The Box of Fishing Hooks is a small packed box of ten Fishing Hooks. It is a light way to carry a fishing supply and opens into loose hooks when they are needed.

Anglers get the most from it. A spare box keeps a fishing camp stocked with hooks for a long time. The game counts the box as survival gear, and it weighs very little in a pack.

The box turns up in closets, sheds and garages, and in fishing and outdoor supply stores. Ten loose Fishing Hooks can also be packed back into a box. The Fishing Guide is the best occupation for fishing and trapping. It starts with the most Fishing skill. For Trapping, the Park Ranger starts strongest.

Using


Opening the box is a single action. Double clicking it, or using the Open Box of Fishing Hooks recipe, gives ten Fishing Hooks and uses up the box. The recipe needs no tool, no station and no skill.

The Pack Items in Box recipe works the other way. It takes ten loose Fishing Hooks and puts them back into one box. The same recipe packs many other small goods, such as Candles, Light Bulbs, Nails and Screws, into their own boxes.

Packing keeps a stack of hooks together as one item. That makes the hooks easier to sort and to stash in a container. Opening the box only when the rod needs a new hook keeps the inventory tidy.

The box also holds a fair amount of metal for its size. A survivor who scraps or melts metal gets more from it than from most items of its weight.

Locations


Closets and sheds are the most reliable places in homes. Crates and other storage there hold a box a little under one time in ten. Garage storage crates come close behind. Fishing storage rooms and outdoor supply stores are the best shops, with boxes on shelves, counters, metal shelves and lockers. A Tacklebox found in a bag or case sometimes holds one. Zombies in a fisherman outfit carry a box now and then. Hunting lodges, camping stores and tool stores turn one up only rarely.
