Mariculture - Fishing Net

[Cpt_Canary]

Hello all, so been playing Agrarian Skies and the one thing I hate is fishing, but what is this the fishing net can be used automatically....

Question is how?? I have tried placing a chest to one side, above and diagonally above. I have tried placing bait in the chest too, but after waiting several minecraft days still nothing!!
I have tried Google and you tube but nothing shows how

Can anyone help?

It generates an actual fish entity. You either have to go pick it up before it despawns or have some way to auto grab it via a vacuum hopper or such.

pretty much this. using more fishnets increases the chance of them spawning, but you'll need to either pick them up yourself, or use a vacuum hopper
