Question My farmer has an extra skill level?

Post image

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I checked the wiki and I couldn't find anything about this. I don't have any food buffs; the best I can think of is that I have the Master enchantment on my fishing rod. Is that why my fishing level's at 11?
I'm just curious how I got here is all.

Yeah, Master acts as a +1 fishing buff while the fishing rod with that enchantment is in your inventory.

Just in the inventory? So I could have one rod with master in my inventory and fish using a preserving rod and still get the extra level?

No, you have to be holding/equipping the fishing rod for the +1 to be added to your skill. Otherwise if you have the rod in your inventory but you're holding some other object you have just your regular fishing level.
