If you're fishing for 15 pound northern pike with any setup reasonable to catch them, and you hook a 2 pound smallmouth, of course there'll be a penalty, but that doesn't mean you want to use a 2 pound setup, since when you hook a 15 pound pike, you're going to lose it every time.

On the same setup, an 8 pound fish will carry with it an xp penalty (Indicated by red backarrow(s) next to the xp gained on the screen that pops up when you catch the fish). If your line test is 12, and your max drag is 13, then generally you will get full xp for fish 14 pounds and over. There is really no such thing as a level 18 set. Overpowered refers to catching fish on tackle that makes those fish too easy to catch. If you want to move some tackle to home storage and you don't have enough space then buy it. Try them both out and decide which one you like best.īuying storage is a new concept that I don't have any experience with, but I can tell you NEVER buy anything you don't NEED for your next fishing trip. I like both Florida and Oregon, but they're very different. It's hard to beat trophy Northern Pike for money and xp. Basically fish wherever makes you happy until you open Michigan. I find New York terminally boring, but if you like it, that's all that counts. Fish where you like, like where you fish. KpShamino has very nice guides, but they are only one way to level.

Let me try to answer your questions in order.
