    No question, send Oleg, get on with your farming, he will earn you about $1,000,000 in a full day with little fuss :)  :)  :)

    Rent the boat and send Oleg to do the fishing.  The higher the boat level at the time, the more cash you will make.
  • rent the boat.  It's fast easy and no fuss.   rent, rent, rent

    @Shay1968 (US1) how do you level up/upgrade rental boats; am I missing a button? I have a varied fleet of my own; how do I rent boat to do own fishing without sending Oleg? Is that even possible? Any clarification u can give would be great appreciated... thanks.

    Sorry to have confused you, I was referring to the different boat types; Inflatable boat - dinghy - sailboat - motorboat - nordland boat - coble - drifter - longboat.  Each can catch a higher level of fish with a greater overall profit.

    Also, when you rent the boat you have 2 options, you can choose to send Oleg to fish or fish yourself.

    assume that highest boat can take us to the 5 hog fish, and some grouper and mahi mahi.

    if i fish by myself
    each hog fish weight approximately 60kg x 5 x1500 =450.000.

    if i send oleg(what my oleg does atm)
    mahi mahi 244 x 300 = 73200
    grouper 1037 x 70 = 72590
    hog fish 49 x 1500 = 73500
    total =219290

    fishing by my self > send oleg if it is highest lvel boat

    Indeed fishing yourself after renting the boat is more profitable. However, with so much going on in the game it is much easier and less time consuming to just send Oleg.

    thanks @Shay1968 (US1) for a moment there I thought I was missing something new which had been introduced while I was snoozing away the night...:)

    With the amphibian on, I take it that it is even more profitable to fish yourself.
  • artful (US1)artful (US1) US1 Posts: 6,617
    Send Oleg.  Hate having to fish myself.

    You cant refresh the fishing area for the rental boats.  Even with the ultra high tech pole, efficient electric reel, and pro medium fluorocarbon, the line will break if you catch the fish on the bottom.

    I use the highest level equipment and I can easily catch every fish, no matter how far down they are, without breaking the line. You don't even ned the best equipment to catch them, you just need to let go when the line gets close to breaking and wait a few seconds, then start reeling in again.

    For me, I prefer to send Oleg out on the boat and fish for myself with bait at the same time. Then I can use both ways and earn even more farm dollars.

    Rent rent rent I find this is a better way to go if you do not or want to fish for your self ;)
  • Can players stop saying rent rent rent. You have to rent the boat anyway. The question, after renting the boat, is should I use the rented boat or should I send Oleg out in the rented boat. I don't like manual fishing and it takes you away from your farm so I send out Oleg for the fish. The bigger fish are a hassle to catch as you have to play them in to stop the line snapping.

    always send Oleg. (unless it is the Dinghy or the Inflatable when I send him for FXP instead)
  • How do you get access to the different types of rental boats. I want to get a drifter but am unsure how.
  • Uncle John (GB1)Uncle John (GB1) GB1 Posts: 11,004
    They come randomly @Lenthor (AU1) . Just send Oleg out in the boat that is available. The Drifter will turn up in due course.
  • Thanks uncle John. Will keep sending boats

    Has anyone noticed the longer waiting time between boats for rent? Im sure they have increased the time.
  • I know, you can make more money by fishing yourself but by comparisan to the money that i have and the time i will use it's not worth it for me :smiley:
