Cod is a common ⭐☆☆☆ fish caught by fishing in cold and cool saltwater. It is vanilla raw cod, renamed. It cooks into cooked fish, and a Fisherman buys 12 caught cod for an Obol.
Obtaining
Fishing
The Cod can be caught in these climate tables.[1] [2] The chances are per cast of a fishing rod and include the junk and treasure rolls.
| Climate | Biomes | Weight | Per catch (open water) | Per catch (other water) | Per catch (Luck of the Sea III) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cold saltwater | Frozen Ocean, Deep Frozen Ocean | 15 of 42 | 30.36% | 31.95% | 30.19% |
| Cool saltwater | Cold Ocean, Deep Cold Ocean | 15 of 42 | 30.36% | 31.95% | 30.19% |
The same tables are also rolled by the fisherman's house chest in villages and by the elder guardian's drops, using the biome at the chest or where the elder guardian dies.

Mob loot
Guardians drop cod, and cats can bring cod as a morning gift. These cod have no rarity line, so the Fisherman won't buy them.[3][4]
Usage
Food
Raw fish can be eaten, but it heals nothing: Matcha Flavoured removes hunger, and food only heals through the hearts shown on its tooltip. Cooked, it becomes cooked fish, which heals 4 (
× 2).
Cooking
The recipes match any minecraft:cod, so every small fish gives the same result.[5] A Mud Kiln burns it into charred fish instead.
Trading
The Fisherman buys 12 caught Cod for 1 Obol once he reaches Apprentice level. Only fish caught by fishing (with the ⭐☆☆☆ line) are accepted.[6]

Angler's Almanac
The Angler's Almanac has an entry for the Cod under Cold Saltwater (listed chance 35.7%) and Cool Saltwater (listed chance 35.7%), unlocked by catching one while the almanac tab is open.[7] Its description reads:
A cold-water classic that has been feeding people for centuries and still hasn't asked for a raise.
Advancements
