Fishing Rod Not Reeling In

[GooglyBass]

I recently downloaded fishing planet and my fishing rod has been working just fine, allowing me to reel it in even when I haven’t caught a fish. Now, the game will not let me reel in the rod and when I press the space button (which I have made sure it is the correct control on my settings), the rod only reels out and will not let me reel it in. I have tried different reels and fishing lines, but it is just not working. This problem initially began when I unlocked Mudwater River and would originally only happen there but be fine everywhere else. Now I am experiencing this everywhere. Am I doing something wrong or is my game glitching?

THANKS!!

Check that your reel is not in reverse (use the mouse wheel to change the speed or L for faster or K for slower) or that your drag setting is not set to low - for less or = for more (numpad - and +). The small fishing reel display in the bottom of the righthand corner of the screen should give you an idea on what settings you're using.

You can press (function key) F1 for the keyboard layout.

Or you could send an email to support@fishingplanet.com with you game name, platform (Steam, Microsoft Store or Epic) and a description of the problem.

Bottom right of the screen there is a representation of a fishing spool (a circle with blocks running around it), the blocks represent the current drag setting, use the Dpad left (for less) and right (for more) to change the reels drag setting (if the drag setting is too low you will not be able to retrieve any line).  In the middle of that circle is the reels speed setting indicator. Each reel has 5 speed settings- Reverse 1 2 3 4 use Dpad up and down to change the reels speed.

If that doesn't help maybe you could try contacting support (snipped from above):
