Rewards not that bad. 10 purple vouchers in total, 4 diamonds when reaching global threshold (90lbs caught) and a sand sculpture sheep when we reach global lbs needed.

ducktown2021 And 2 permits!  I'm not a "fishing friend" but it's great for gathering additional diamonds. Regarding to this I was already successful with my babyfarms.

I got the same rewards mentioned. My final reward @150 lbs is two land permits. There are some huge fish out there. I got 107 lbs on my first round.

I have 2 pink vouchers, 7 axes, and 3 pink vouchers on my way to the 4 diamond global level and on to the 2 permits at the end. Happy with all rewards, except the axes. Would have preferred something less common…….

I’m not even close to done, but almost halfway. No huge fish. I’m not much of a HD fisher, lol. But I really like the event and hope the global goal is reached. Very cute sandcastle idea. 😊

I tried green lures. Not so successful this time. For fishing events I am more lucky with blue and purple lures. But purple vouchers are rare, so blue it is. And green.

We completed 56 000 000 out of 300 000 000 needed, with this pace we will end up around 410 000 000. We are done after 3 days, if we keep this momentum. 🤔

This is true. To get a feel for it, I believe red tail catfish is the only fish that can be caught with red lure (worm) and has small circle size you are looking for described above. You can catch it in any of the 3 swampy fishing areas, but most times takes a lot of patience (just like real life fishing 😊) before you see the small circle size. Once you do, however, that is the circle size you always want to look for to catch the event fish. I only use worms and green lures for these events. The green lures this way almost always pull in a zander, 9 times out of 10, or a carp. Less often it will be a coho salmon. That way you can save the more rare vouchers for other things. Good luck! |

I'm still fishing, trying to get some rare fishes. For my mainfarm a little bit difficult as I'm not a very successful fisher but my baby got lucky as I'm lacking here the most fishes. So it's of course easier to get some missing fish. Even if we don't reach the goal I'm satisfied, the rewards were great this time, especially the permits at the end of the reward row.  |

The permits were nice. 😊. I’m still fishing, but paused in case we end up doing a fishing task in the derby. It uses up lures waaaaaaay faster than they can be made. (I’ve only ever seen a low-star lure-making booster so I always have to trash them and have to wait. And wait. And wait.). I try to stack them, but just used those for Sun tasks the day before the event, then at the event start. Too bad they can’t also have a workshop boost event when there’s a fishing event! 😛

Not sure if everyone got the same, but mine were for weight and recovery time. (Both were 5 star, for 25 diamonds). I was able to get them yesterday and then again today. For me, I’d rather use my diamonds to buy the boosters I want, not buy diamonds and get random boosters. I feel for you running low on lures. You do know you can request them from your hoodies at the bird box, right? I try to visit the fishing area everyday just to put lures and nets/floats/traps on. They are often stacked to the max. I know the extra spots on those machines are pricey, but I have found them to be necessary, for me. |

I hear you about using diamonds to get the boosters you want, rather than random ones. Makes complete sense. (Someday I should total how many diamonds I spend to get diamonds or a reward like a scroll or hopefully this sheep deco, and compare, lol.) Other than the farm pass, I try to limit buying diamonds. I have to have a really cute deco and the conditions have to be just right for me to talk myself into spending more real $ that I should be using for other things. 😝 I could use the request box, as well, but hoodie is in the same boat—she likes to fish, too—more than I do, lol. I totally forgot there are extra slots on that machine, though! I saw 45 diamonds and hit stop, not going there. Still doesn’t cut production time (does it?) I can only line up more at once and I’m there at least a couple of times a day to check supplies, barring some emergency, so I’ve never felt it necessary. I should check and see if my machine is maxed, though. I think it is, by now. What is the max number of lures we can stack, again? I’ve hit it a couple of times and had to use some to make more for a farm pass or sun or….some sort of task. |

I just now got 150 pounds and got 2 permits! 👏👏 I will keep fishing some spots, but need lobsters and feathers, too. I hope ducktown is right and we are on track for the sheep sculpture deco.
My lure bench has been expanded to the max for a while and recently I was able to max out the extra slots for the net maker. And my tackle box is always stacked. I, too, would like to know the max that can be stacked, so I hope someone knows and will post.

We are 13 000 000 above the number we should be around this time. The pace has dropped a bit.
The number for stacking in the tacklebox used to be 51, don’t know if that’s still the case.

Post by Mom’sCar on Aug 24, 2022 12:10:57 GMT
IIRC, the stacking is about 50 per machine. So in the case of the fishing area, you could have 50 lures stacked AND 50 items on the net maker.

Reading your input I'm considerung to expand my lure and net benches, too. Currently I have enough diamonds due to a previous purchase. (Lighthouse, path, seagulls)
Update:
Done. I could expand each bank to 8 places. More is not possible, as the 9th place costs 415 diamonds. I'm satisfied, 8 should be sufficient for the next time. Well, I never spent that much diamonds at one time, I must be crazy.....  |

I have 8 places on each machine, too. And both machines fully stacked. The back draw of stacking is obviously inflexibility. You can’t react on demand. Maybe I should start expanding the tackle box. 130 isn’t much.

Well, I never spent that much diamonds at one time, I must be crazy..... , I hope it works for you to have the 8 places. I try to make sure that before I go to bed I fill the queue and sometime in the morning. There are times I need to pick a few up from each the lure maker and the net maker to keep the tackle box balanced. If I find I am using drop duck floats more than lobster traps, I queue them 2 floats, 1 trap, 2 floats, 1 trap, etc. You will have to try what seems to work for your play style. |

Mom’sCarMy tackle box has space for 150, currently filled with 58 lures. Not very much. I'm lazy on that matter, therefore I'm often lacking lures. Not for this event, luckily, it was sufficient, but I think it's more comfortable to have more spots. I will use them now more often. Usually I used the net bench either for lobster traps or for the ducks. I tried to get a balance by switching every time. Now, with more slots, it should work more smoothly. I hope so! Nontheless thanks for your input. With more spots I can try different approaches.

We gained some pace the last couple of hours. We are over the 210 000 000 and well on track for the sand sculpture. 😉

Mom’sCar The 8 spots are working, I'm busy fulfilling my tackle box. It's certainly safe to say that the surplus of spots is way comfortable. No comparison with my previous situation. I still have to figure out the best row of lures, but I'm working on it. It's fun, really. I'm happy I spent the diamonds for that purpose, it was no waste.

We still need around 45 000 000 to reach the global number needed. Pace dropped dramatically last 10 hrs. Most likely because a lot of players reached the 150lbs needed for the 2 scrolls. We are still on track to reach the final goal, there is still some margin on the good side of the number.
