just getting to grips with the new fishing addition to the test server - is it just me or has anyone else experienced you need a new hook for every fish you catch? hooks are $225 each fish weigh around 5 to 6 kg bass sell for $8 a kg that's $48 for a fish that used a $225 hook - is it worth fishing?????

    Depending on the type of hook you want or need will determine the cost as well as your fisher-person exp level.

    theres only 1 hook on offer at $225 I guess the fisher person level is low no incentive to continue with the fishing as the cost is greater than rewards

    As you go fishing or send Oleg fishing you earn FXP.
    Now mind you that when you go fishing you only earn FXP for catching fish, not for just going fishing. It will take some time to build up just as your farms do.
    One can also use/buy Oleg to gain FXP.
  • Well,........ummmm, I've never been the greatest fisher person in real life, so I am struggling with knowing which hook catches what the best and how strong of a line for bass as opposed to bluefish......The bait is pretty obvious, but the hooks and stuff confuse me!!  Oh, and another thing, I have bought up to level four on my tackle box, and it will still only hold the original 9 items........anyone know what might be up with that? or what I may have done wrong, or somethin'?   :/

    the fish caught are available to sell in the farm management section under produce, this is where I have the value for fish to use against the cost of hooks.  I have also noticed theres a section added to products where you can sell fish based products assume to use when you have a fish restaurant to make them,

    still seems unproductive spending more $$$ to catch fish than they return in sales


    just had to buy another hook $225 plus a reel caught 1 x 9kg carp now need another hook, sold carp for $171 lost $54,

    very addictive this fishing but eats away at farm money


    sent leg fishing at a cost of $375 for 10 bass - once he had caught them all sold from produce for $80 loss of $295 from farm funds - can some one point out the advantage of going fishing -
