Description
This addon stores the type of a fishing hole once a specific fish or bait was catched. The type and the fishes and baits already catched there, are shown in the interaction menu while focusing the fishing hole.
Pins with a corresponding color are added to the map.
Additional:
- Inspired by the feature request from cnschu in Bait Informer, yet not implemented there: Showing bait usage in quickmenu
- Inspired by Luminary - FishMe - Know your Bait & Fish: "Reel In" Notification.
The idea from awesomebilly is genius. I rewrote it from scratch. Hopefully more robust against false alerts. Always remember: As it is an indirect indication only, it can be fouled.
In order to avoid false alerts, the notification is suspended, if your are in the menus.
- If you are using Rare Fish Tracker, this addon allows to auto-hide/show its window. Otherwise the option is disabled.
Known Limitations
There is no API to get the type or position of the fishing hole. It is an estimation. There are locations, where the fishing holes were so close to each other, that even the game itself does not know which to use, depending on your position and heading.
Beschreibung
Dieses Addon speichert den Typ eines Fischgrunds sobald ein entsprechender Fisch oder Köder gefangen wurde. Im Interaktionsmenü wird der Typ und die dort bereits gefangenen Fische und Köder angezeigt während der Fischgrund fokusiert ist.
Marker mit der entsprechenden Farbe werden auf der Karte angezeigt.
Zusätzlich:
- Inspiriert durch den in Bait Informer nicht implementierten Feature Request von cnschu: Der Verwendungszweck der Köder wird im Quickmenü angezeigt.
- Inspiriert durch Luminary - FishMe - Know your Bait & Fish: "Einholen" Benachrichtigung.
Die Idee von awesomebilly ist genial. Ich hab sie neu geschrieben. Hoffentlich robuster gegen Falschalarme. Bedenkt immer: Es ist nur ein indirekter Indikator und kann daher reingelegt werden.
Die Benachrichtigung wird unterdrückt, wenn ihr in den Menüs seit, um Falschalarme zu verringern.
Bekannte Einschränkung
Es gibt keine API um an den Typ oder die Position des Fischgrunds zu kommen. Es ist eine Abschätzung. Es gibt Stellen, wo die Fischgründe so nah zusammen sind, das selbst das Spiel, je nach Position und Blickrichtung, nicht weis welcher gerade angewählt ist. Damit müssen wir leben.
ABOUT THIS LISTING
This page describes Votan's Fisherman by votan. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on ESOUI on 3 October 2026: https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info918-VotansFisherman.html
Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on cdn.esoui.com, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.
The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

API VERSION
Built for ESO API version 11.2.0, 11.1.0, 11.0.0. After a patch the game marks add-ons built for the previous API as out of date; the "Allow out of date add-ons" checkbox in the add-on menu loads them anyway, and most work.
LIBRARIES
Many ESO add-ons depend on a shared library — LibAddonMenu-2.0 above all — which is installed separately, exactly like an add-on. A dependency that is missing shows as the add-on simply not appearing in the list.
CONSOLE
Add-ons are PC and Mac only. There is no way to load them on console.
Installation
1. Download the archive with the button on this page and unzip it.
2. Move the unzipped folder into your add-ons directory:
Windows — Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns
3. Start the game, and at the character select screen click Add-Ons.
4. Tick the add-on. If it is greyed out and marked out of date, tick "Allow out of date add-ons" at the top of the same panel.
5. Log in. Most add-ons need a /reloadui after they are first enabled.
UPDATING
Delete the old folder first. ESO loads everything it finds, and two copies of one add-on is the usual cause of "an add-on has produced an error" on login.
This release downloads from cdn.esoui.com, not from us, so
there is no checksum to compare against. Scan the archive before you unpack it.
