# Creating a Fisher Character

<figure><img src="/files/EhzL2QzsKZ7Yko5nofTF" alt="" width="359"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

When creating a new character we got 3 options:\
\
[**Simple Mode:**](/main/vehicle/getting-started/creating-a-fisher-character/simple-fisher.md) Uses no IK and no Hand Swap, this version uses only basic animations and avoids the use of IK, since the reeling is IK dependent this mode will not work for Reeling and other advanced fishing modes (e.g. Tug of War). <https://youtu.be/BvPImZ3Sqzo>

[**Default Mode:**](/main/vehicle/getting-started/creating-a-fisher-character/default-fisher.md) Here we gonna have IK for both hands, it works on all the fishing modes. This version don't use Hand Swap Animations, so it's faster to configure. <https://youtu.be/KV3bW5B5DNM>

[**Advanced Mode:**](/main/vehicle/getting-started/creating-a-fisher-character/advanced-fisher.md) Just Like the Default Mode, plus a set of hand swap animations. <https://youtu.be/sOaNRG0VrTQ>\
\
If you are already using a Malbers character and only want to Add Fishing State on top your structure, please go to [Add Fishing State to Character](/main/vehicle/getting-started/creating-a-fisher-character/add-fishing-state-to-character.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://sunfish-studios.gitbook.io/main/vehicle/getting-started/creating-a-fisher-character.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
