If you stay there, you'll just pick up where you left off next time. Have fun! Remember that you don't need to leave a lake when you quit the game. My best advice is to have a reel with maxdrag capable of handling much of what you're fishing for and just play things that are too big until they tire and you can reel them in. If you're fishing for 15 pound northern pike with any setup reasonable to catch them, and you hook a 2 pound smallmouth, of course there'll be a penalty, but that doesn't mean you want to use a 2 pound setup, since when you hook a 15 pound pike, you're going to lose it every time. On the same setup, an 8 pound fish will carry with it an xp penalty (Indicated by red backarrow(s) next to the xp gained on the screen that pops up when you catch the fish). If your line test is 12, and your max drag is 13, then generally you will get full xp for fish 14 pounds and over. There is really no such thing as a level 18 set. Overpowered refers to catching fish on tackle that makes those fish too easy to catch. If you want to move some tackle to home storage and you don't have enough space then buy it. Try them both out and decide which one you like best.īuying storage is a new concept that I don't have any experience with, but I can tell you NEVER buy anything you don't NEED for your next fishing trip. I like both Florida and Oregon, but they're very different. It's hard to beat trophy Northern Pike for money and xp. Basically fish wherever makes you happy until you open Michigan. I find New York terminally boring, but if you like it, that's all that counts. Fish where you like, like where you fish. KpShamino has very nice guides, but they are only one way to level.

Press T again and it will allow you to fast-forward until morning at which point in time you will automatically sell whatever is in your keepnet and be prompted to purchase a new day's worth of travel accommodations (see 'Cost Per Day' below) allowing you to continue to fish without paying the initial Travel Cost anew.Let me try to answer your questions in order. To do this, once you have filled the keepnet, press T to advance Time past 9pm.

While leveling, it is recommended that you have the largest keepnet available when traveling to a new location as you will often need to continue to fish at that location for more than one day in order to recuperate the travel costs.
