Seriously. This crap again? Same as the pike tournament. I've made it through the first hour of the first qualifier. I've had a minimum of 150-200 bites. Only been able to set the hook on 6 fish out of those bites. Every time a fish spawns and goes to bite, the whole screen freezes up for about 2 seconds until the fish stops biting. I've had 4 fish actually on the hook and the bars be up into the orange and pulling drag, then the fish completely disappears off my line. The same thing happened with the pike tournament.
I've asked multiple friends, and they're all experiencing the same problem. I would appreciate it, if everyone will chime in and let them know it's a problem for them as well. Not like it will matter anyway, we'll just be told "everything is working as intended", and nothing was done to fix it during the pike tournament either, but hey...it's worth a shot.
