At this point it's not worth going over and over about it, so long as it's still fun for you that's all that matters, its just not what I would recommend doing if you are trying to progress in the fastest way that is all

Mate I am level 62 almost 63 haha, it's not the Catfish you target at St. Croix, its pike and muski, you will make a lot more money in real time so long as you know what you are doing, I find Emerald too bland and a lot of a grind, the bass lakes and trout lakes are much more fun and you still make good money, remember you want to stay at a lake for as long as possible to simply offset the travel costs, I have over 2 million cash in game now so I am not too worried about it now but once you hit level 40 from memory you will find it hard to beat San Joaquin for money and xp when you are going after sturgeon with bottom rods

Emerald is good when lower level but not a patch on St Croix, you will make far more money for the real time spent there, which is more important especially the higher you get, the grind would be too much at Emerald past level 30

My PS4 ID is Benjimc22 feel free to add me

You can add me mate, not sure on my ID but I will add it here once I get home

Oh don't get me wrong I would love a group of lakes in Africa and Asia, it would be amazing, I just mean I am sure I have read that they where doing 3 rivers in south America that is all

I am sure there will be at least one more south American one, Brazil I would think, after that, who knows but I would think so but it will depend on other developments they have planned I am sure

It sounds like the weight of the bate and sinker is too high, I have used a sinker that is too heavy and it does not do much damage that I could see so I would not worry about it too much

Its about xp, red means you get less and green means you get more, it's to do with how under or over powered the setup is for the fish you got

Nice call thanks mate

Yeah or there about, I use the rod stand to speed it up so you can lose 1/2 due to swapping them over when 2 or 3 bite the same time

Yeah you can and it's very lucrative

This may be Noah but you can catch them more than once, when you have decorated the tree that is, I am farming them and getting very good results in Peru

No I don't see where you can buy them as well and I have premium

It's one of my favourite lakes, we all like different things, if you change your mind and need help with the mission and making good cash give me a shout, the silver and big head carp are where the money is at to be fair, on that lake anyway

Yeah that's the way that one is, still good fun to catch though

It's a hard balance but they do need to make money at the same time, I just think the Christmas DLC needed to be better rods etc but other then that I like the event

Is this all waterways and how do you know it is the bite rate they have lowered?

Nice catch, what was it and what weight?

Use snow in a feeder and spawn sacks and you will get it mate, bite rate is low but it works

Can you catch the Krampus fish more then once, I only ask as it says you can still fish for them when I finished the missions

Yeah I have the same issue, restarting the game seems to fix it when it happens though

Nice work as always, your posts and updates are always useful and interesting, thank you, the mobys do keep the grind fun, I am going to try and use some of chum tactics for the cat fish in Peru as I am sure there is some potential there

What are the missions and prizes normally?

Not sure about that one, Europe is very big to be general like that, a lot are and when I go fishing it is normally off the bottom IRL, but you need to float fish close to the top for big head when in Germany though
