Optimal Tackle, Rod & Bait Strategy

Recommended Bait
Standard Worm / Crab Claws

Using the correct bait shortens bite latency by up to 60% and filters out lower-tier clutter.

Recommended Rod
Bamboo Starter Rod or Crab Rod

Provides adequate line strength to prevent snapping when tension spikes hit.

Veteran Mentor Tactical Advice:

Reel in steadily without yanking when the line turns yellow. Provides enough cash to purchase the Combat Knife in two catches.
