Adjustable hook bite rate fishing module
🎣 **Don’t wait any longer for fishing! **
I made this quick mod to adjust the bite timing because I hate sitting around waiting for a fish to bite. In the original experience, I usually use it with the TimeSpeed module to speed up time and hook rate at the same time.

✨ Main functions
- **Customized hook biting time**: Adjust the time required for fish to bite the hook after throwing the rod
- **Flexible configuration**: Adjust the **biting rate magnification** through the **General Module Configuration Menu (GMCM)**
- **Keep the original flavor**: **will not** modify the fishing mini-game mechanism - only adjust the waiting time
- **Simple Compatibility**: No Harmony or complex dependencies required - simple and compatible with most setups

⚙️ Hook bite rate magnification setting
**Explanation of magnification effect:**
- Control the speed at which the fish bites the hook after casting the rod
- Lower values make hook bite happen faster
- Higher values slow down bite frequency
**📊Magnification configuration table**
| Magnification value | Effect description |
|--------|----------|
| 0.1 | Very fast hook bite (90% faster) |
| 0.5 | Half the usual waiting time |
| 0.67 | Matching 1.5x game time acceleration |
| 1.0 | Original/default hook speed |
| 1.5 | Waiting time extended by 50% |
| 2.0 | Twice the usual wait time |

💡 **Usage Suggestions**
The effect is better when used with TimeSpeed module! Currently I'm using it with the Yet Another Fishing mod without any problems.
⚠️ **NOTE**: Compatibility with other fishing mods is not guaranteed.
Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.
Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
