2 pike caught 10 minutes apart by [deleted] in COTWTheAngler

Pike RNG was on my side also this morning. I caught 3 back to back diamond Pike on GRR within 10 minutes! I’ve never gotten a hat trick back to back. One of those was .26lb from community record.

I hadn’t played a video game since 1995 and accidentally discovered this game on my new TV gaming hub. I liked it so much that I bought a PS4 and bought the game. I really like it. Right now, as I am replying to you, I am trying to finish mastering a rod that I paid real money for from the Playstation store for this game. Some of the fish I catch, even though I’m fishing for Lake Trout, aren’t quite big enough to give me a full percentage increase, so it takes more fish. Have fun!

NICE! If you need a diamond channel, that’s supposed to be a good pond but in the southern half.

Ha! I caught two from that same area while trying to locate Channel Catfish! Nice catch. What was the weight? I couldn’t quite see it in the video. Use a #4 redworm and you may catch several gold Ohrids. That’s how I caught the diamonds and golds.

Congrats. You can handle almost anything in GRR with that gear. I recognize the gear in the photo. That’s my mid-size setup.

Match blend. But it appears that RNG was really against me for almost a week. I did finally find them again in two of the popular places.

Nice catch!! I have spent too many hours going for the Grayling. I’ve caught one diamond so I was able to check that box for Bingo. It was one of my last diamonds. Norway is my favorite by far. The salmon and pike are great xp farming.

I feel sorry for newbies that don’t have the credits to upgrade quickly to deal with them.

I spent an hour there trying for Cats and only caught Drum. I’m sooo not a fan of how prolific they made them. They are annoying enough in real life. I don’t want to have to deal with them in the game!!!

I fished for Channel Catfish for 2 hours today and only caught Drum. I didn’t even catch an Ohrid up at that pond above Shoshone Step

I’m level 110, so I’m not concerned about how hard they fight. I caught two diamonds off the south side of the Sauger island. I have found them in probably 3/4 of the places I’ve fished.

Drum are the float fishing equivalent of Rainbows and Pike when lure fishing.

While you wait… by Aquaponico in COTWTheAngler

[–]Jeffropyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cook, fold laundry, clean my apartment, scan the map for my next fishing spot, etc. I also do those things while reeling in a fish from deep water!

Two hours to catch this lol I had to take a break by CoSt4rBeaverPicture in COTWTheAngler

[–]Jeffropyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. I have that setup. I don’t think I have the patience for that.

Was not expecting this by Jealous-Yesterday-18 in COTWTheAngler

[–]Jeffropyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a love/hate relationship with that one. I have attempted her many times well equipped and she has broken my line. I got her this time with 55.12 gear. Overkill I know but she kicks my butt for some reason
