Maggots are an insect, non-perishable food item, and fishing bait.

Usage

Fishing

Main article: Fishing

Maggots can be used as bait for fishing to catch bass, catfish, crappie, perch, sunfish, and trout.

Distribution

Maggots can be found on or around killed zombies (depending on the settings). They have a reduced chance to spawn during Spring and Fall, and will not spawn at all during Winter.

Trivia

• While the obsolete Maggots2 were poisonous, the regular maggots are not. The obsolete ones can no longer be obtained.
