Crankmaster Posted September 28, 2019 Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 We can build setups up to 27kg for groundfishing but leaders are only up to 19.5kg so what up with it? Where is the content? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators FPdimsam Posted September 28, 2019 Moderators Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 With the help of these leaders, you will be able to land fish of much greater weight using a properly tuned drag. For example, I've landed 59 kg beluga using Cat Boxer SE 260 with Kraken 9000 reel, monofilament 0.65 mm and leader 0.5. Of course that was great fight, more than half an hour IRL. But this is the pleasure of fishing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crankmaster Posted September 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 You ignored my question. I didn't ask what you can do with existing leaders I asked why we don't have higher test mono leaders even tho carp setups do have leaders up to 25kg. So why are mono leaders missing this option if setups using those leaders go up to 27kg? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why are mono leaders missing this option if setups using those leaders go up to 27kg? 100% otherwise, why have rods capable of handling much higher weight? It's wasted without a stronger leader. Which is why Carp fishing becomes the best, consistent form of XP grabbing, post level 50. It's close in money too, because you have Trophies and Uniques, 4-6 a gaming day that can be hauled in fast with superior carp rigs. Sturgeon is still better, for cash because it costs next to nothing, but it's debatable if you find an efficient system on Weeping Willow. No reason to fish anywhere else other than California and England if max money and XP is the goal. It's a tiny tweak, but a much needed one to give bigger leaders to non carp rigs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators FPdimsam Posted September 29, 2019 Moderators Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 Why do you need more powerful leaders if you have enough of those that are already there? I foresee the question of carp leaders. The fact is that IRL the most powerful leaders are carp too. Another thing, IRL you can easily equip a bottom rod with a carp leader. BTW, IRL you can do everything you want at all. For example, you can fish using usual thread with a hook made from paper clip and a float made from goose feather. But in the game you can not equip bottom rod with boilies and pellets, as carp leaders also. These are just the rules of the game. The developers decided that it should be that way. If they decide otherwise, it will be different. 6 hours ago, theskeindhu said: No reason to fish anywhere else other than California and England if max money and XP is the goal. Do not agree at all. If you know right spots and have properly tuned tackle, you may also earn game currency and XP in Michigan, Alaska, Alberta, Louisiana, Florida, Germany, Russia, even Italy.

Lol, I can name many leaders, in real life that far surpass Carp leaders. Nobody outside of EU fishes for Carp, other than with dynamite or bows. You speak with no knowledge. As far as XP, you are wrong on many counts. If your actually played as much as you posted, you'd know that. Currently their are only 3 real XP and Currency meta's to max efficiency. The best is still probably Sturgeon in California, but it's closely followed by Carp in England because of the number of trophies and Uniques available. The other, which many champion as equal is Musky in Michigan, but it far pales in comparison to the other two due to weather, it's amazing on sunny days, but cannot compare in any other weather. All this is besides the point, the main point is, why have bottom rods and reels capable of 59 pound drag with a leader only capable of 43 pounds? Is it so we hopelessly fight Clear Musky for 20 real life minutes, while feeling some moral superiority due to "the challenge." Ridiculous. Those who want a challenge can grab a jigwinner and hunt bass in Florida, downgrading gear is always ones choice. Clicking the space bar for hours, with the most upgraded gear in the game is droll and frankly silly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other people may well have their own, much different from yours. 2 hours ago, theskeindhu said: Nobody outside of EU fishes for Carp, other than with dynamite or bows. Then one could no longer read. I advise you in the future to carefully read what they write to you and study the issue under discussion before writing frank stupidity. The topic is closed.
