✅ Introducing Bait Feeding

ℹ️ Description

You can find out more about this feature by visiting the Challenge Board at Diamond’s Peak Outpost in Golden Ridge Reserve.

✅ Welcome to Bait Feeding 1/2

ℹ️ Description

Bait Feeding is a technique for Anglers to attract fish and influence their behavior in the water, using either loose bait or more specialized balls of groundbait.

✅ Welcome to Bait Feeding 2/2

ℹ️ Description

Initially, you’ll have to throw the baits out to a short distance by hand, but catapults and upgrades will be available at the shop to increase your range!

✅ Equipping

ℹ️ Description

Head to the Gear Page, select a slot and then select the Bait Feeding technique. Here, you’ll be able to select your delivery method – hand thrown, or catapult, and which bait you’ll have set up ready to use. Finally, select a compatible bait for feeding. Now you’re ready to go!

✅ Usage

ℹ️ Description

You can maintain up to 4 baited spots in the water at any given time. Over time, these spots will slowly dissipate – but you can add more of the same bait near an existing spot to prolong its effectiveness. Bait spots will be cleared if you wander too far away or fast travel to another location.

✅ Compatibility

ℹ️ Description

Not all fish are attracted to free bait. Scavengers and omnivores will be the most interested, but predators won’t usually be so interested. Check out the suggested baits in the handbook for hints as to which baits may work well with certain species.
