Re: Trouble understanding fishing
if I was being rude I would have said something more along the lines of open your eyes and read before posting in a thread. I didn't do that I pointed out that what you said hadn't been said had, just in case you missed it being said...LostJustice wrote:No need to be rude.

TIps for fishing for plaice?
I've been following the wiki to fish some plaice, and honestly I can't seem to fish 'em out. XD
I've been fishing in the correct moon phases, and (hopefully) in the correct areas with the correct baits. I keep getting either roach, eel, perch, and/or brill.. and it's annoying me because plaice gives PERC early on.
Anyways, any tips on fishing these little rascals? Much appreciated.

Re: TIps for fishing for plaice?
Give up unfortunately. Magic man might know how to fish them, but plaice are tied for rarest fish with eel and are an incredible pain in the ass to get. I seem to remember finding them in lake shallow during new moon? Don't quote me.

Re: TIps for fishing for plaice?
I was getting a good batch of plaice from lake shallows, don't remember exactly what moon phase but I'm thinking it was one of the gibbous phases, and it was with leeches.

Re: about fishing (World 7)
The wiki is spot on for Plaice and I never have issues getting them. I get them on pretty much any fresh bait in lake shallows on about any moon phase.I will say that there are times when they are near 100% of a catch and times when I might get 1:4 or 1:5. (Probably because I usually have a variety of fresh bait in the boat and don't keep close track to what I'm using on any one cast.) Just today I got less than half place with the rest being pike and an occasional roach. I've not done an intensive time study like on the Moon Phase page, though, to verify any accuracy or changes. (To note, I have a harder time getting both eel and sturgeon, both of which are strictly tied to moon phases and/or time of day from what I can tell.)
You are fishing in the lake shallows, yes?

Re: about fishing (World 7)
And Eel, oh the eel! I just use Leeches on this one particular time, I recall recording it on the discussion. I have yet to find a different time and different bait to get eel, but for now bloated leeches on a waxing gibbous.
