If you’re wondering how to tame a shark in Fortnite, then you’re in the right place. Here’s everything you need to know about how to ride a shark in Fortnite.
How do you ride a shark in Fortnite?
Sharks in Fortnite aren’t an entirely new phenomenon, but riding them certainly is. To do so, you’ll first need to get a fishing pole that can be found in a variety of potential locations. While they can be found inside chests and as random floor spawns, if you’re looking for the quickest method of how to get a fishing rod in Fortnite you’ll want to keep an eye out for barrels. Wooden barrels containing fishing rods can be found in several watery locations around the map.

Now that you have a fishing rod, it’s time to find some water inhabited by Fortnite sharks. Simply cast your fishing line into the water and preferably close to a loot shark. Before you know it, the Fortnite shark should take the bait and bite down on your fishing lure. At this stage, you’ll take direct control and be riding the shark as a form of transportation.
Riding a shark in Fortnite proves to be a fast way to get around in the water, and you can even have loot sharks jump, but they won’t do you much good on land. You’ll be booted off the shark if you attempt to take it for a ride on any of Fortnite‘s many dry landmasses.
