How to fish in lava in Terraria pre-Hardmode
Fishing in lava in pre-Hardmode Terraria requires a bit of prep, but it's totally doable! You'll need the Hotline Fishing Hook, which is only available after completing 25 Angler quests, but nope, that's in Hardmode. Pre-Hardmode, your best bet is to use bait that can withstand lava. Unfortunately, there's no bait that can survive lava in pre-Hardmode without mods or glitches. So, in vanilla Terraria pre-Hardmode, lava fishing is a no-go. Your fishing dreams in lava will have to wait until Hardmode, mate.

Actually, you can't fish in lava in pre-Hardmode without mods. Time to gear up and push to Hardmode!
Here's a workaround: Crate potions. Collect as many crates as you can pre-Hardmode, then open them in Hardmode for a chance at the Hotline Fishing Hook. Not exactly fishing in lava, but it gets you the gear you need!
