How to make a simple AFK fishing farm in Minecraft
Dig a 1x4 blocks hole
Place the two chests next to each other on one side of the hole to form a larger chest.
Place a hopper next to the large chests, facing the chest connecting to it. Place the fence on top of the hopper and put the iron pressure plate on top of the fence.
Empty the bucket of water on top of the hopper and it will flow towards the remaining empty space in the ground. Place the note block next to the water in the 1x4 hole. Put a temporary block on top of the note block. Put a trapdoor on top of the last segment logged with water.
Stand on top of the large chest with a fishing rod equipped, aiming your cursor at the trapdoor.
Hold down your right-click (secondary action key) to start fishing. When you catch a fish or an item, your character will pull back the rod and deposit it into the chest through the hopper. You can now use an auto clicker to keep farming or else use the F3+T feature that reloads textures. Hold right click, and then press F3+T, this will reload the texture pack, and while it reloads, let go of right click, you can now tab out and let your character farm in the background.
