I've been extensively fishing during winter until I got communicate that my hook snapped off. Fishing rod seemed to still have a hook so I just removed it and applied again (maybe it's bug on it's own).
After that, during fishing, I started to receive branches (there are no logs to indicate that), some of which refuse to stack with the others. No other branches do it so I wonder if those branches are "replacements" for breaking fishing rod, that is not breaking at all?
Notes: While I use modded version of the game 3.71 (BAC), fishing rod have been obtained prior to mod introduction from the village and as far as I know, mods can't change core mechanics like fishing or changing fishing hooks.
