Frontier Comfort Fishing, Fishing Lures, and Rare Fish! TLD Basic Ice Fishing Guide! 

Very impressive work. Your love of the game is shining through in this incredible video!

You trun a in-game event into a small project. Great job :D

bears can get u in a fishing hut like if u shoot one go inside the hut and shoot it again in can come in and get u just it is rare to happen but does seen a few people die this way and i got attacked plus the bear can glitch through the wall same with the porch in pv homestead

I would love to see the comparisons of the fresh water. This is really great data.

I was waiting for a good fishing guide to come out! Thanks for the video

Amazing video! The LD community thanks you!!!

Awesome video 💪💪💪💪💪

Damn the dedication

Interesting video-thanks! I'd be curious to see the cooked caloric output of each lure considering that Rockfish grant around 3x more calories than trout. For roughly the same calorie output, catching 3 trout vs 1 rockfish uses 2 more bait and triples your chance of line and lure breakage. Furthermore, single higher calorie-value fish make more efficient use (less bait and more cal/kg) of the bonuses to fish size from bait + ice fishing skill + cooking skill; you will use two more bait to realize the same caloric gains from 3 trout vs 1 rockfish, which will add up over the course of an entire day's worth of fishing. Consider also time spent harvesting bait-harvesting 30 pieces of bait will take ~1.5 hours. All of this is to say that I still think the lures are preferable if you're using bait. Also keep in mind that fishing in longer sessions is more efficient than multiple 1hr sessions. Would be curious to see how/if that changes results.

That's a really amazing video. Can't imagine how long that took to collect the data. And it's very usefull, seeing that the basic tackle is best for leveling ice fishing but the "better" lures are better in catching high quality fish. Thank you very much for your dedication, definitly erned a sub.

Thank you! Great help.

The effort levels are huge

Great video! Thanks for all the effort put in making that!

I felt that all the new gear was slower to catch fish, particularly at lower skill levels, and your data bears that out. Use basic tackle for advancing skill levels for higher catch rates. Catch bigger fish later. Thanks for the analysis!

My gawd, this was awesome! Thanks!

Wonderful video. Very helpful!

Very thorough, thanks!

Awesome! Thank you so much!

Thanks so much for all the effort it must have taken making this... I was so confused that when I used lures I seemed to be catching less fish!

You would think the lures with feathers would be more effective than the simple lure. In my latest Stalker run I used only a wire lure and then bait to reach Level 5. The Fishing Camp has so much trout and salmon killing a bear is unnecessary. Will you do any other guides?

thanks for your hard work, I was struggling trying to catch fish and figure out how to make bait, I think my game has a problem because I fish for 3 days straight and didn't get one fish

Great info, thanks! Is there any difference, in terms of benefits, between fishing huts with doors versus ones without doors?

Great work. So i guess if you're fishing for Vitamin-C rich fish (Rainbow Trout/Lake Whitefish) to mitigate Scurvy risk, the best way is to use bait but no lure. If instead you wanted to max calories/kg and have less catches but with bigger fish (to reduce line break chance) you'd use a good lure and bait. Fishing without bait seems to be pointless except when you don't have one and want to catch one fish first to harvest some. What do you think?

Finally the update today fix the ice fishing hole bug in PV and will now allow ice fishing holes to be created in pensive pond and some other places in Pleasant valley

Amazing work an very nicely presented! It would be interesting to compare productivity based on caloric content and nor only number of fish.

Other than giving yourself a high five, I’d say there’s a disadvantage to using the less and bait. That’s not at all what I expected.

I legit built by coastal highway base in one of those fishing hut with door😂 it's just a pain to collect firewoods

I wonder if the Travois helps make fishing hut Bases

Wow, impressive effort! Gained a new sub

I did a test of my own using the revolver shell bait, I fished for 8 hours and around the 4-5 hour mark i catch fish almost every second (meaning i have around 10 fish at the 4-5 hour mark and it just gets better getting closer to the 8 hour mark)

Amazing work. I wonder if these percentage are different in interloper.

I am at Coastal Highway now going for Level 5. Two questions 1) How often did your line break? 2) Does all your bait get used up? I cut up 9 pieces from a rockfish and fished for 4 hours catching 7 fish. All nine pieces of bait were gone.

Thank you, a couple of questions. 1) When you mean 100 casts you mean 100 hours? Would you try this again at Level 4 or 5?

Amazing work! Very informative and I love how clean your fishing hut is. You have defiantly earned a Subscription.

How heavy do the new fish get?
