Been trying to get a diamond Largemouth for about 2 weeks now, always used size 6 frog and hopper with no luck, but swapped them to size 5 after watching this video last night, and soon after the hopper caught me a nice gold Largemouth. Still no diamond though, but the fishing is certainly better than before.
I was curious if you could give me the link to the angler discord. I found the Hunter but I can't seem to find the Angler. I couldn't even get anyone to respond to me about it on Jaxxy's EW livestream. Thanks again for the great video. Oh yeah. When I was still fishing IRL. Anytime I found a particular spot where I caught even an exceptionally large fish. Or consistently caught fish I would work it hard from all different directions just like you were doing. Sometimes they're just stacked up like cord wood. Lol! Way too many times I've seen people catch a big fish and get excited and leave right then and there only to miss out on an excellent opportunity like the one you just took advantage of. Again. Great job making the video. It's hard to get everything to come together. I'm slowly learning. Lol. Happy Fishing! & Happy Easter!😊
Thank you. I ended up second place that weekend the first competition weekend. As far as a link to the angler this should work for ya, if not let me know I will try again. discord.gg/At6DQx66 . Happy Fishing & Happy Easter to you as well.
I wish I had good answers for that. Still new to me. Depends which species etc. However the resource channel on theAngler discord has diamond hot spots which usually mean good fish spots. If you want more action definitely do more lure fishing as float fishing is much slower. try using spoons or spinners on 2x speed reeling. they catch most species I would say. Until you get a hang and feel for species in certain spots. Competition groups help me focus on a species and generally people share their favorite locations. As far as this video at the end I show my best spot for bass if you go there use a size 5 frog or popper reel at 2x speed twitching the whole time. You will catch some kind of fish during the day almost every cast from a boat along both shores before the bridge. Hope that was helpful, just matter of spending the time in game.
This was over 4 days of competition. 1500-1800 in the bridge spot was best. I can't say time between as one night I didn't get anything, yet another multiple. I spent many hours on the weekend portion. More than any person should lol. Soon as it got about 1830 I hopped servers. Complete focus was just on the one species. Hopefully you pull one out of that hole at the end of the video. Multiple friends did that weekend and prior to this comp I had zero largemouth Dimes. Good Luck!
The symbol above feet and depth in gold flashing means I am reeling. I have auto reel on so I just have to hit reel once and it keeps reeling. I do not have to hold the trigger in. My finger got sore reeling all the time so I switched it under options and accessibility. That may be why it shows it so you know what you are doing.
OldManRum, I've watched your videos, love your content and would like to try competing in the competition sometime. Not sure how to do so from my console, any advice would be great.
Use the link in the description to go to the fishing comp FB page. Join the group. Then each weekend just submit your entries like everyone onto the page after reading each weeks rules. If you don't know how to take screen shots on a console just ask in there and myself or someone will post a pic of how to on Xbox and Playstation. It's very easy.
@@OldManRum I know how to do the screenshots, but I didn't know if it had to be a certain players server, or our own. Thank you for the information and I look forward to joining in.

Good stuff, Hopefully soon.
Good video. I guess we know what Goldstein likes for desert! Lol!😊
Hello, the worst thing is that you want to catch bass, but most of them take pike here
What is the best? What is the spot that you fish in it to go to?

@@OldManRum thank you so much! I got right in. It was a lot easier for me than getting into the hunter thanks to you! I'm very grateful.
@@Retired_Deer_Hunter My pleasure, Happy to help!
What’s a good setup to use in lvl 68 but idk what rod I should use for it ik people use lower rods
Lower rods and line only matter for higher score. I generally do not care about score I use what I am most comfortable with.
How you get that popper
I believe its from missions on Norway. It's just a size 5 still acts like the in store one.
What popper is that. Don't see that in the store
It's a reward for completing missions or something I believe on Norway.
Any tips of catch fish more successful? I'm struggling it takes so long in between bites

What size popper cause that don’t look like a 5
How much time was between the diamonds? Still haven't got a bass diamond and fish for them prob the most out of any fish

@@OldManRum that’s insane. I have 5 diamond total since console release
@@Maddog0608 and try size 5 popper twitching 2x speed.
@@OldManRum Thanks. That’s what I usually use. But switched to that lightweight set up you had. Really liking that
@@OldManRum thanks for the vid. Got home from work. Hit the blue bridge for a couple hours. Got a bunch of gold bass and my first diamond bass.
What is that little symbol above your depth when your fishing?
The symbol above feet and depth in gold flashing means I am reeling. I have auto reel on so I just have to hit reel once and it keeps reeling. I do not have to hold the trigger in. My finger got sore reeling all the time so I switched it under options and accessibility. That may be why it shows it so you know what you are doing.
@@OldManRum Oh I didn’t even know that was in the game thank you 😊
@@Big_brew08 yeah it’s fantastic

Oh no you can do your own server. Way too many people for that lol. Awesome, I look forward to competing with you. @@ScythePoe
do i have to have the popper your using to catch them ? 😢
No you can use the size 5 in the store just the same, or the frog
@@OldManRum okay thanks roughly how long did it take to hook a diamond in one session
dope video rum
Thank you, good to see you again!
Hi what size frog are you using ?
That is a size 5, Gold or better Smallmouth and Silver or better largemouth. Same size on the popper
Either you got mad skills or the RNG in this game is F-ed.
443 largemouth, 0 diamonds.
Try those spots by the bridge 1500-1900. The guy that beat me in the comp got near as many and mostly hit that hotspot
I fish the lumbermill bridge and lily cove south of sleeping razor frequently. Game refuses to give me a dime largie. Anyway, liked and subbed.
@@digit4lboycguse bigger hooks
It's a conspiracy man
Can you show all ur dime spots for bass?
I did in the video. Try size 5 popper, twitching at 2x speed
@@OldManRum Thanks lol didnt see that i subbed and liked the vid!
