Leeches

Leeches are a type of Bait that are used to catch specific types of Fish in the Sea of Thieves. Leeches can be eaten for a 5% health regain, however eating leeches will make the player throw up.

Storage
A player can carry a maximum of 10 pieces of bait in their Inventory, however an extra piece of bait can be carried on the Fishing Rod. This means that one can carry a maximum of 11 pieces of Leeches at one time.

Leeches can be stored in a Ship's Food Barrel (100 per one storage space; a maximum of 4800) and a Rowboat's Storage Chest (20 per one storage space; a maximum of 640)
