Fishing Event!

[Aviation]

Wow. I have never been able to reach the fifth goal using only red lures. Even with the catfish.

The problem I run into is I can't make red lures fast enough. Do you make a big stockpile before the fishing event, or do you have a lot of slots in your luremaker?

I am baffled as well. Last fishing event, I used almost all red lures and couldn't even get to my fourth goal. However, I didn't play very regularly and only had three fishing spots unlocked. I am assuming reaching your fifth goal with only red lures can be done, as long as you play regularly, have a large tackle box, constantly catch catfish, and stockpile red lures days, possibly weeks in advance.

You can't constantly catch catfish. They are only available in one fishing area, and it has a fairly long refresh time.

If you don't have a big tacklebox, I suppose it might work if you "stack" worm lures outside the luremaker. I need fish filets too much to do that, though.

1st- 2 axes
2nd- 1 purple voucher
3rd- 2 mallets
I won't make the fourth goal because I am almost out of lures.

2 rolls of duct tape after catching 190 ks of fish ? ! Not worth it Please make the prizes better.

i would be a happy camper with this reward I got Saws, mallets, paint buckets red bricks and something else underwhelming

We are too cheap to use colored lures except during the fishing event. BUT we do use green blue and pink lure during the event, but ONLY to catch the event fish.

We only accept event fish with the colored lures, and we have a nice stock of red lures to use with the colored lures to pile up the poundage.

We look for that small circle and slow ring, and discard fish that are not the event fish, unless we decide we just want to fish and be done. BUT beware the Rudd and the coho salmon -- they can fake you out!!

We end each event with 10 green lures 5 blue lures and 2 pink lures, which we will use for the next fishing event in a few weeks.

Between events, we only use red lures and nets to catch fish.

We are WAYYY TOO CHEAP to spend gold vouchers on lures.

You can catch all the special event fish using only blue and green lures. No need at all to use gold or purple vouchers.

I tried 3 green and 2 blue lures during the event and didn't catch anything I didn't already have.

We usually use the pink lure to catch the giant barb -- we seem to have better luck getting her to bite on that one, but you ar right she will bite on the blue one too

You have to watch the circle size and movement.

The special event fish have an inner circle size that is just bigger than the smallest circle. (The fish barely fits in the smallest circle. The event fish have a circle slightly larger than that.)

Perhaps a better sign is the outer circle contracts very slowly compared to other fish. If you see that, it's an event fish.

Otherwise, let it go. You won't lose your lure.
