When strugeon becomes a crap and bass

I was fishing for strugeons. I got rid of all crab and bass (fished them out or they swimed out of the screen buy themselves). I got some five or six strugeons swiming arround. I closed the fishing window and entered if back  imidiately (my bucked was full and I had to empty it). Usually when I do this, my strugeons wait for me. But this time when I reentered a fishing area, all strugeons dissapeared and bass and crabs were there instead of them.

    He, he.

    When English is not your first language, misspeling can be funny :). Esspecially when it has so similar words for  compleately different things. And pronouncing can be even worse:

    Bet you saw a bad bat on a bed.
    That death is dead, dad.
    Lets ship sheep with a ship.

    (I was talking about carps and bass, of course)

  • @aaabbb1 (INT1) English is my 1st language, so I have nothing to blame for my typonese ... I did know you meant carp, but it is always funny when a typo makes another word & that was a particularly amusing one hehe giggling smiley giggle smilie laughing rire lachen kichern animated gif emotion sourire photo 1sm016giggle 1sm016Gigglegif

    do not feel bad English is the only language i know and i did the exact same thing a little wile ago in my coop chat they all thought it was funny too but anyways i think the pond resets like every 20min or so might even be less time and i might even be wrong but i know someone in my coop has had that problem also a problem with them swimming off for no reason too

    If you use bait for sturgeon, and then close the fishing window, the sturgeon you attracted with the bait will disappear. Only use the bait if you plan on keeping the window open to finish catching what you attracted with said bait.

    that's not right
    I often close the window, when I go for sturgeon: they are all there, when I open the window again

    I think there is a time-break by the way the fishing-window reloads and all normal fishes appear again

    The answer is easy


    You get 30mins before the pond refills, from when you enter the first time, so if you leave when the 30mins is up you lose your bait fish.  What I do is have a 25min timer on, if using bait.  I ensure all baits are caught just after the 25min is up, this ensures I do not lose any bait fish.  This is 1 of the strategies I use to catch up to 1500 sturgeon a day.

    It was buggy at first, I haven't tried it again since it happened when it was first launched.. just tried it and you're right, they don't disappear right away, until the normal refresh-time

                                                                When you fish for crap, you gotta use the right lure.

    Well… after the initial thrill I haven't been doing anything with the fishing except set him on his 10 min bass to fill the daily task.  But… thought by now the bugs must be worked out and I'd try again.

    So I'm up to catching mahi mahi    got my bait, plenty of it, doing fine.  Plucking them out easy enough.  All but one fat one that simply seems uncatchable.  I'm careful not to snap the line but no matter what I do he runs out the clock.
    So fine, I gotone that gets away.   The rest are easy enough.    I cast again, get a smaller one, half way into the fight an error window pops up saying I used up an item.   WTH?   I could see if I snapped the line maybe being out of line.   But no. I'm out of hooks.  IT WAS ON THE HOOK!   I had not pulled it out, nor did it snap the line.

    So fine.  I go buy more hooks.   Now I left with 9 or so of these already baited.
    When I returned, they were there, for about a second. Then they all swam off in either direction OFF the screen.

    WHAT THE HELL?????  So all the bait I bought and used is gone?   WHY should I keep doing this?
    The fish bakery thing doesn't appear to actually earn ANY money from making stuff.   It costs more to complete the tasks asked for than what I get out of it.

    The whole thing just seems stupid.    
  • There are still bugs in the fishing, I know as I do lots.  Lot of the time if it comes up with the error, it usually means that a fish or 2 have left the screen and are not coming back.  This is very annoying every time it does it to me now I just reload game and go straight back to fishing. 


    This is very annoying and wish they would fix.  But until they do, I will just have to put up with it.

    Fishing is stupid because of the bugs but with the right strategy it can be VERY profitable. Its almost worth going through the reload routine and losing the occasional baited fish from time to time.
  • artful (US1)artful (US1) US1 Posts: 6,617
    With all the bugs and frustration, I decided to skip fishing -- for the most part.  I just do the basic of having Oleg fish happily from my pier for bonito.  $50+grand profit a day for essentially no work.
