you can catch plenty Arapaima using shiners on 8/0 either float or bottom. Can't buy at the lake so you must bring them with you. I prefer fishing from the kayak with the anchor up, land fish, even unique in a few seconds. They can be quite the struggle with the anchor down or from shore. It WILL take a while to paddle to any of the Arapaima, Piraiba or Shark spots, but loads of fun when you get there.
Maybe it would be a good idea to limit to 2 rods when you are fishing big. That way you don t lose other bites while fighting the current fish. Or you can try 1 big + 2 small rods or 2 big + 1 small?
If you use your boat with anchor up you will bring in the larger fish easily. I was level 35 when I bought the DLC and used that tactic and got to level 70 really fast. It is a little slower fishing but definitely worth the money and XP.
Yeah, I gave that a try the other night and was pulling one bull shark after another in despite only having a 45 lb matchstick rod. I also chased them down using the trolling motor. Works like a charm!
I had 239ft of line. The exact setup for the reel u got from the Amazon pack. I snagged a arapaima I was in my boat and he started running out on me. I thought I’d stay in the same spot instead of chasing with my troll motor… boy was that a bad mistake. It took all 239ft of my line and broke it !
I agree the premium adds allot of value to the DLC. I will caution players who don't have stout gear for the big fish. Majesty match rod and Bottom Sniper minimum IMO. I've chatted with players using lighter gear, and the XP is insane but it'll take a short minute to get those fish in.
Went from a lvl 20 to 32 in like 1-2 days just playing this map. Made some good friends who dropped some spots for me. 2-3 nice bull sharks and I’m leveled up. Most I’ve got from a bull shark was like 45k
I use Troy SE 13 pound rod with an exterminator 4500 which is 16 pound. a 25 pound fluoro line.. Get bait too heavy warnings but I went 34 days straight with only changing my line and filled my net with sharks every single day.
It is sad that The fisherman fishing planet will probably not get any updates like these new amazon maps and new gear. I personally play mostly fisherman because I play on xbox and fisherman does not require Xbox live gold like normal fishing planet. I would love to see if fisherman will still get some updates.
Great exotic fishes you get to hunt.
Btw Watch River Monster so you can learn About this Fish

Yeah, I have never purchased a kayak. I can see where it could be an advantage here. Its too bad you can't carry one on the bass boat...lol!

Most fish was in the maku maku lake I think but thanks for the tips

Well said!
@@HawkeyeM You get a rod and reel though...... I looked at it and it was one of the best rod and reels in the game
You didn't show where the "Arapaima cove" is.
Check at 11:38 on the video. The map shows the location, marker, and the coordinates (397.66, 275.32)
@@HawkeyeM I guess I missed that. Thanks.

Wow! Bet that is a fight!
Sometimes it’s a battle. Sharks are actually easier to catch with it than some of the other fish that like to pull you around
Surprisingly enough the young will drag you sometimes the common aren’t too bad but some of the trophy will give you a fun fight.

It took them a while to get Blue Crab Island, but I think they will start getting some of the others in time.
They always go for the weakest rod setup
So true
They nerfed things ..
Bite rate is shit now
You MissPronounning Arapaima
That is not surprising. I do that all the time.
@@HawkeyeM yea sometimes its hard to pronounction names these days xd
@@saul100emperorofthegoldene8 Write down the proninciation then, so we don t die stupid.
