well done but please fix the jigs. 1. Jigs are not soft plastics they are jigs 2. a jig already has a jig head you shouldnt have to add a hook. they should be under the no weight category. 4. Jigs require a soft plastic trailer, example: christie craw, a paddle tail swimbait, among others. One last thing down the road we need the game to include bladed jigs. if you look at every single bass tourney from 2021 season in either B.A.S.S tournaments or local amateur tournaments there is a tie for the most productive baits. those are a squarebill crank bait and some form of jig albeit a swim, football, pitching, or flipping jig. with the bladed jig a close 2nd so if ya gonna have a bassmaster game ya need to do one of the best baits in all of bass fishing some justice. Im not trying to complain I love the game I love the all the updates so far. I also am very passionate bout fishing and especially fishing with a jig there is one tied on for me in real life AT ALL TIMES!!!! they just flat catch em. Peace and tight lines friends and keep up the good work
the latest update was a giant fix for me as far as glitches go. They also repositioned bass on st johns and seemed to make it easier to catch fish there somehow. I've been struggling with that lake and last night caught 67lbs. Good job on the update. Still some things to get corrected but good job with this one!
Whoa wth please tell me I crazy or I'm smoking meth cause I'm I really reading and seeing the update to multiplier online accepting basically a cheat a bad sportsmanship a lazy bum that sucks n makes you work n comes in to reap my fruits REALLY??? do you know why some of us chase or park boat on purpose in front of some1? Imagine in battle Royale most of the time pretty hard so consistently find fish which on avg of like 8 ppl in game its always just 3 ppl with 30 to 50 pound catches n more n more you start seeing a bum that sucks let's be honest not all or good nor good at all in games its life, real life not everyone wins a trophy so here I am busting ass in the lake n finally 30mins in 10mins left I find sweetspot and the bum who sits there on map whole time waiting for that catch he can see name and 13lb catch like a crackhead finally see his boat move n non dummy that pays attention like me is I bet he comes looking for me and what do I see Mr Bum no shame literally park right next to me or in front basically saying F U and take your fish in 5mins going from 0 lbs to winner and your ok with that? That's why we block them and make them move somewhere else screw that I'll be damn as a man ima let you do that and happens more often so now you give the option he can by let him stand and cast really? Wow well let's use your logic, next Monday when you start your job in real life if you have one , we'll let's go to mine instead cyz I'm a man, welding at case new holland making 27hr bringing home anywhere 1200 to 1500 weekly full leather on with airhood on no ac in shop sweating all 10 to 12 hr shift 6 days a week and let you come in on payday for 5mins and take 1000 dollars from n leave lol I wish u would. I wish when I'm at the lake you come park your boat right next to mind and not say a word and start casting in my space omg I wish you, but you wouldn't cause we all know what a real man would do and it's not what they video game here would do. I'm done venting and looking forward to more awesome lil socialist updates and start seeing your community vanish lil by lil and I bet you wouldn't even realize or think holy sheet we making bad decisions and agreeing with the lazy bum that's driving my game down, trust me 2k and fifa lives like that and starting to pay for it also, yea they still get money but lil by lil they are starting to feel the pain. You can fool some of the ppl some of the time but you can't fool all the ppl all the time
What Ive noticed today for future updates. Online mode fish bite different also they are invisible most of the time when they bite. can you make the bait on a Carolina rig and dropshot more buoyant? sponsored bait say they are free but it still charges me $1350 or whatever it is. delete Crappie . I can’t keep them off my bait.
Please Ben, make dovetail team work and fix the way lures work underwater and over, like walking the dog and poppers, we should be able to make those lures move more realistic with the rods. It is such a cool game, but it really needs this to be fixed. Thans Ben
