I’m curious about how some players seem to snag the new fishing mods at lightning speed. I’ve been grinding the fishing daily quests every single day, setting up fishing camps with the thunderstorm weather station to boost my chances for rare catches, and using both improved and superb bait. Yet, I’ve only managed to catch one of the specific fish I need for the mk2 reel, and zero glowing fish so far. Plus, I’ve only caught one of the area-specific fish necessary for the mk4 reel. Does anyone have tips or suggestions? Or perhaps someone could drop some fish to help me out?

Honestly, more fishing is key. You can catch almost everything for the mk2 with common bait. I found that fishing during the rain helped me get up to the mk3 reel super quick. And don’t forget about grilled fish; they can boost your luck!
One strategy is to create multiple alt characters and farm the daily quests with them. That way, you can rack up rewards without getting stuck on your main character.
True, but remember that progress in one character doesn’t affect the others. I tried fishing on multiple alts, but it felt like I was starting from scratch with each one.
The RNG really plays a huge role in all of this. Some players just get lucky with drops. I got the advanced drag just a couple days after the update but I’m still stuck on the mk2. It’s kind of frustrating!
Right? I feel your pain, all I keep getting are drowned plans and it seems so endless.
If you’re not having luck getting specific fish, don’t stress too much. Just fish more with common bait unless you’re going for that elusive axolotl. It’s really about the time you’re willing to invest.
It just takes time, my friend. With common bait and some luck, you’ll get there. Daily plans certainly help, but aren’t essential to snagging those harder-to-find fish.
Grilled fish? How does that help in catching fish?
