I’m really struggling to make sense of all the conflicting advice out there about fishing hooks. I find most guides overwhelming with their detailed explanations. Can anyone clarify what the best hook is for catching local legends?

From what I’ve seen, the advanced drag mod really shines when it comes to catching local legends. It makes it easier to adjust to their quick movements, but you definitely need to have quick reflexes. If you’re going for a more straightforward catch, the regular sawgills won’t cut it.
I think advanced drag is top-dog for catching difficult fish like lunkers and legends. Improved bearings come in a close second. A lot of people recommend not using the hook mod, though—while it increases the frequency of bites, it doesn’t actually help you catch them.
I can’t argue that advanced drag and improved bearings are solid choices, but the attractive hook has its perks. It boosts the number of times your bobber bobs, giving you more time to react in the minigame. When you use the attractive hook along with grilled fish, it can really maximize your response time!
