feeder fishing)), also take note of the lure weight (spinning & casting rods) or casting weight (feeder, bottom, carp and spod rods), if you get a message saying the setup is too heavy do not use as something might break (normally the rod). When setting up an outfit try to make sure it's balanced : Rod (strongest) (line weight) => Reel (max drag) => Line (test) => Leader (weakest) (test) if a leader is required i.e. If your line keeps breaking then your drag is set too high. Make sure you start with a low drag setting. Make sure you're fishing during peak times (check the weather forecast) for a better chance, I caught mine around lunchtime. Try fishing with the house behind you and casting as near to the middle (of the pond) as you can. Set the float depth to maximum and use a #2 hook, try using baits like dough, bread or semolina (corn is good but not available until level 34). You will likely pull some Redear and Crappie from the same place, but a majority of the bites will be Buffalo or Channel Catfish.You will need to use a Telescopic or Match rod (float setup), a level 19 EspiraMLR3000 reel and (level 19) Nero rod should be sufficient for the task (any of the Fenix match rods probably even better). Since you're in Texas, you can leave at any time, sell your catch and come back at no cost.

009' line, a slim bobber, a #6 hook, and pet food. My personal setup is a Caesar 23' telescopic rod, which is fantastic for getting fish out of the water. You need to cast between 60-70 feet (less than 60 is very quiet), and I use a 50' leader.

Go to Home Sweet Home at Lone Star, and aim across to the right edge of the break in the trees on the far side. Note that you catch a lot more catfish and sunfish at this location, but this is a decent location at the free Lone Star Lake. This same spot is also good for farming catfish with the exact same setup.

Better, there's a reliable spot in Texas where you can get bites. For example, Prussian Carp is, strangely, not carp as it counts toward this achievement.
