Couple extra tips I learned along the way: 1. Cloudy days use fishy baits like (Krill/Crab), Sunny Days use strawberries/citrus 2. I've started skipping the day with the two peaks as it was such slow fishing 3. Had a few people tell me groundbaits etc don't work, so I stopped using them altogether and haven't noticed much of a difference. 4. Im not a pro at this game just wanna share you guys my setups and what I use to make money/level happy fishing :)
Thank you very much for this guide, I’ve just turned lvl 50 in game and I watched this over and over again and it’s helped me catch loads of uniques and trophy’s! Keep up the good work kind sir!!
Hello I'm in the UK now farming carp. I already found some spots. I have experimenting spod and what I see is that with chum I fill the basket a little faster and get 1 to 2 more unique carp. My opinion is that it doesn't pay. Because we spend a lot of money on chum material. Another tip is to buy only 2 carp rods and two heavy chaser end game setup and fishing with those 2 carp rods with boilies and the 2 bottom rod with corn and peas has been working very well and we spend less money. As you say the days whith two pikes are very slow its better catch 2000 in fish and go to the next day. Thanks for the tips you've been giving. We look forward to the next video. best regards I hope to see you again soon .. Good job
Another Great guide Zabby !! Just took my first trip to Willow lake, followed your guide 100% and within 30 mins i had 4 Uni's and tons of trophy Largest one a Uni Mirror carp at 26 kg and a 27 kg Ghost carp. My 300 kg keepnet full at 8:40 am Keep up the good work. Grinding to lvl 54 lol
Decided to pay for a week in advance. I made back my money for the entire week on the first day. Caught 9 Uni, 11 Trophies and wasn't even done with peak time. Cash was 83k don't remember the XP but it was amazing, plus it was so much fun. I figured out how to create recipes, Adding aroma seems to help a bit. I believe the bite rate does increase with the Spod. Thanks for your videos. Hope to see you on twitch
Nice glad you saw results with spod I just never noticed a difference but it's only about what works for you! Gl-ad you're haviing fun there I love that place.
Definitely does. When I didn't use it bc I thought it was a waste of money I caught 1-2 uni per days max. Now with spod and groundbait my record on big peak cloudy was 9 unis, mirror and leather new pb, grass carp pb.
#8/0 hooks are much more effective at catching uni's than #6/0. This setup is good, but 3 rods is actually better than 4 using the bigger hooks. During a peak, you can easily be hooked up with a trophy or a uni almost constantly without missing fish.
Great guide, worked good. Good post St Joaquim farming. I found the 14mm popup pellets in hallibut for cloudy and pineapple for sunny works just aswell for unis och trophies. They are cheaper also.
Actually I just went today and I must say it is comparable to michigan muskies in terms of bite rate, got 2 30kg unis in within 30 minutes irl. I think you should definitely give it another go, bring 2 brutus and vegetables, very short leader for the bighead and silver, and bottom/carp rod for other carps. Fish near the small island left of Lake in a lake spawn, or go right from Field of gold for the unis. I prefer the second spot bcs there are more species there, faster bite rate and unis. Got 1000+ xp for the big fish too dunno why this lake got so much hate xD
I've never fished carp in real life, but I just went Weeping Willow in the game for the first time and immediately got into a 49+lb Unique Common Carp. Like a $2500 fish. I'm gonna be a carp guy for a minute. $$$
im there right now,im trying to catch the prussian and crucian carp..where to find them?i got trench fish and perch fish caught for the weeping willow exploration 1mission
zabby,im trying my luck at weeping,i need to catch the crucian and prussian carp for the mission after that spend rest of the day to fill my net try to get close to 100k but which boilies to use pop up mostly?
I noticed a lot of players between level 50-55 are broke. What happens at level 50 that costs so much money? I'm 49 and I have a little over a million. I know at level 50 a ton of stuff unlocks in the shop. What will I need to get?
zabbs,im going weeping willows to finish up a couple of missions,one is i need to catch a northern pike and chub and other need to catch a hybrid carp,for the pike a 13 lb setup
Hi Zabby! First of all thank you for your videos! I'm learning a lot about this game now, thanks to you! But, I've few questions for you: 1- Is it possible to repair rods and reels you buy with the DLC? 2- Are DLC's item permanent or do they have a fixed time? 3- Do rods and reels from DLC have a level or is it possible to equip them once you bought them? 4- Could you raccomend a good DLC? Thank you again! Keep it up man!
1. Yes you can repair DLC rods/reels 2. DLC items are permanent but the places it opens aren't 3. You can equip the DLC items instantly regardless of level 4. Bass boat one is handy same with the sports bottom rod one. Mainly look for one that gives you a bigger keepnet because thats the most important thing.
i always thought sturgeon were always the best and while they are the fastest fish to reel in even on like a low level bottom rod these carp are also pretty good
@@nyanuar123 i just left rdr2 online,never again im fishing for sturgeon,my left thumb cramps up on left joystick holding it to the side while putting up its fight,im sticking to salmon,bass to make money for fishing
@@nyanuar123 when i was playing in story mode i caught 50 stealhead,50 lg mouth bass=$300 i had legends of the east satchel u can carry 99 of fish,plants,game meat..provisions
@@Zabby Understandable. Just sayin bc some people follow these videos blindly and will get the exact same setup. There's no advantage to using too heavy line as you're limited by the strength of the drag on your reel. It's more expensive, spooks more fish, lessens xp and damages rod and reel faster. Although I totally agree that the effect will be small in this setup. I stop being a wise ass now. Thanks for your videos btw!
@@rackelhahn8645 No worries you def weren't a wise ass, I just stopped worrying about every little thing in this game especially on high level accounts lol XD
@@rackelhahn8645 wrong on one account if the max drag is less then the max line weight of the rod heavier line won't damage the rod more. lets say you have a 40 lb max line weight rod, a 38 lb max drag weight reel. and a 44 lb test line the max force applied to your rod would only be 38 lbs. now yes with this set up the reel would damage more then the line.

Tiger nut boilie large smashes it ...

Honestly not even sure, I've only farmed these carp and well cat.
zabby,im trying my luck at weeping,i need to catch the crucian and prussian carp for the mission after that spend rest of the day to fill my net try to get close to 100k but which boilies to use pop up mostly?
I use citrus during the sunny days and crab during the cloudy days!
nice, zabby! im level 52 rn but ill farm this place till i hit 54. maybe longer.
It's very very good I usually swap out between here blue crab and peru so I don't get too bored
You said you've stopped using groundbait so does that mean I don't need a spod setup to go here?
If you wanna give it a try go for it but yes I stopped using my spod and sold it!
I noticed a lot of players between level 50-55 are broke. What happens at level 50 that costs so much money? I'm 49 and I have a little over a million. I know at level 50 a ton of stuff unlocks in the shop. What will I need to get?

One more thing, you can sell the DLC items for baitcoins once you unlock the comparable rod/reel to it
Every time I watch guides for this area the people have so much money!
Do they go back to saint croix or something else?
You make tons here if you stay for 10+ days
Zabby thank you for telling me! Just caught 2 uniques in 1
Fishing planet day! Keep up with the good work!

how do u make so much money for a leavle 18
zabby buddy,i just unlocked weeping on ps4,i didnt have much money i bought only 1 35 lb carp rod,i have 661 lb keep net,
You can try using some bottom rods with carp bait until you get enough money for more!
do u do real fishing or arnt u any good or u scard of fish
come back to fishing planet :{
Where did all your money go ?
Mostly spent on testing setups for the videos
@@Zabby hey man I have a question ould you reccomend buying the fisherman fishing planet for the baitcoins via regular fishing etc
@@imaginelosing7067 no
@@orangeblossomhomeinspectio432 yeh I came to the same conclusion it's a big waste of money and I wont be buying it
It's spod not s-pod
Do you fish in real life
Used to more when I was younger but im getting back into it!
Your line is too heavy for that combo. Your tackle is gonna damage faster.
I don't worry too much about small stuff this late into the game tbh.
