ok...ive descovered the wonderfull tackle..aka rigs aka lures. I got a sibaki rig but for some reason, to me it only seems to work in salt water. Does anyone know of what kinda lure that works in fresh? i wanna be able to catch 1-3 moat carp or those crab things at once like i can with the quu's an bastore sardines.

would be nice if some one could give me some advice smile

i dont think you can catch more then on moat carp at the same time, i think carp mostly eat incect pate.

Best place to catch moat carp is in that city rabao, or so i've read.
probably use a mithran fishing rod with either a little worm or insect paste
you could use a rogue rig or robber rig but there's a chance your rod might break cuz bigger fish are attracted to em.

check out these sights. they are awesome

To fish mass carp, Carbon Fiber rod with insect paste. Rabao used to be the 'it' spot for fishing, but recently SE nerfed catch rates in town to prevent botting. I used to be able to pull in 40k a night fishing carp, and even more with the rusty cap -> padded cap technique.

Now, fishing is mostly profitable for those who accquired lu shangs rod. But, you can still make gil fishing carp, just not near as much as before.

i posted earlyer that there wasn't a rig to catch moat carp. Well i was wrong, its called a Rouge Rig, im pretty sure it expensive. People on Alikazam recommended that your skills be around 25 or around 50. Or else youll be catching a lot of rusty items.

Rouge Rig - it catches 1-3 Moat Carps, but i'll stick with my Bait untill i'm higher level ^_^
