Way to go brother. Thanks for the help. Been trying to catch that S.O.B. for 5 hours. Switched to honey bread and caught him on my first cast. Man I wish I knew that earlier lol. Thanks.
Yo Thanks Charles Macro you helped me get up to level 10 and more and you helped me get literally mostly every fish in this game. Your big brain thanks for the tip and tricks!!
Update: just got home from work. Cracked a beer, loaded the game, got some bread and honey, went to your Hotspot and on the first cast I got the Buffalo. Thank you!
I used an entire bag of cold water mix with the bread&honey and only caught one Smallmouth Buffalo at this spot. Was casting to the +10ft portion. Rest were crappies and golden shiners.
@@CharlesMacro yeah it's definitely worth checking out until I get on to emerald lake.. atm I'm having really great luck fishing for bass with a 1/4oz casting spoon and small minnows right in the middle of the lake.
Just started this game, I'm obsessed hah. Your video is definitely informative, all the info I was looking for. I will be checking out your other videos, thanks!
Another great bait for the buffalo is night crawlers when you can get them, I was night fishing on the road casting down into the hole, I was catching more on a floater with a 62 inch lead with night crawlers, than the bread on a bottom sinker
Just want to say thank you so much. I could not find the Buffalo until this video and the second cast got it to round out lone star exploration II. Thank you again!
Whoopwhoop!!! Hubz n I began playing this game at 11am today. He caught the pickerel first (Rig: Value spin 6.3, #2 hook, 3lb test, #1 spoon) then he caught the spotted bass with the same setup. Lastly, my challenge was to catch the buffalo. I watched several yt vids, they said to use dough balls or mayflies on an oval bobber...epic fail even the location and depth was incorrect (60-68 depth). I found your vid, bought your setup (Rig: Creek Pro Feeder 7.10, 4lb braid, #2 hook, Bait bread w/ honey, open feeder 1/2oz, simple bell, quiver tip 1oz, minispin 800, mono leader .005, and set the white, yellow, red dot to yellow.) I set a marker to the middle of the deep area by the farm fencing and cast the first time and got a nibble catching a blue gill (depth 8.8ft) the next cast resulted in catching a blue gill at the same depth. My third and final cast resulted in an early morning, 10 min fight to land a 2.582lb, 16.729in SMbuffalo!!! Thank you soooooo much for sharing your virtual angler method. Earning 33XP $82, We had a great time together and we will be watching more of your vids...coz your accurate data is much appreciated. KEEP VFISHING!!!
I need to know what that lure and rod combo is in print. If someone could post it greatly appreciated. Also is anyone else playing on the ps4 that found it hard to learn the controls at first. (Im thinking this game was orignally for pc.) Great vid btw. This game helps me with stress.
ran across your spot not too long ago, enjoying all the info. thanks for all the help and I have learned a lot about the game. Still can't catch that Buffalo, but I think I will get it eventually
Not from day one but once I unlocked most things - I figured out how to get better rods and that stuff I just need to know what exactly to get, (bait, rods etc) where to fish in Missouri etc much appreciated
The game is funny like that sometimes. I usually change hours or days. I even turn the game off and back on to reset the fish. Were you able to catch the smallmouth? They did some updates and moved it to another spot as well.
Hey Larry. They nerfed it a bit. Try using semolina and dough balls. Also try turning left in in the same spot and casting past the Lily pads to the right a bit about 100-150 ft. I'm gonna make an updated vid. Lmk if that helps.
Thanks for the video. First time I tried, I had the wrong setup and broke everything on the first cast. Second time i had a 2 lb leader on 4 lb main line. Caught a couple, then got a bigger one,, the line stress meter maxed and the line broke. Watched your video, then put a 5.5 lb leader on the 4 lb line and went crazy. Bread and honey wasn't working that day, probably due to weather or something, so switched to pet food.
Nice. I've went thru that same thing as I was learning. Glad my video helped. Yeah, switching up the bait from time to time or even during certain weather conditions helps with getting more bites. Can't wait to hear about more of those catches! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
i just relised i was chating about being in a tournement with you lol. im grinding on pike right now. im finishing up my loanstar lake explore 2 with this last fish
Hey boss. Question, so if I use a bigger hook, it should maximize the chances of catching ONLY Buffalo and not shiners right? Like maybe a 2/0, and just a recommendation, I bought some buoy markers so I marked the deepest spot to consistently hit the exact same spot easier. Thanks for the other tips!
I love this video but I haven't had any luck catching the buffalo I've tried to change the time change the bait change the hook I've tried so many different things and I've only caught one ever Edit: I've been trying to catch these fish for forever now and I just caught three of them within 5 minutes so thanks for this video
Should just be bells. Common or simple bells. If you don't see them, make sure you are not at a lake. Leave the lake and go to the shop on the home screen. You'll find everything there.
I actually fish off the levee against the fence and can reach almost every deep hole and it was there that i actually finally caught the first small mouth buffalo. Quickly
Hey thank you so much I’m level 28 but realized I never caught a buffalo had a hard time but then watched this video. Also to anybody else you can go above where the fence is and only have to cast about 50 feet and I used a normal bobber and the bread with honey at what you said 9 feet and looked at that deepest spot out a marker down and caught one on third cast awesome video thank you again!
Listen to this guy I just started a mobile acc and got to small mouth buffalo In less than 5mins I've been needing g this fish on this acc to catch all species and I did in less than a day one 1.240 pounds and the other 2.460 pounds
Way to go brother. Thanks for the help. Been trying to catch that S.O.B. for 5 hours. Switched to honey bread and caught him on my first cast. Man I wish I knew that earlier lol. Thanks.
No problem. Glad to help.
I gave up

I used an entire bag of cold water mix with the bread&honey and only caught one Smallmouth Buffalo at this spot. Was casting to the +10ft portion. Rest were crappies and golden shiners.
man the devs act funny sometimes with the catches. Try different times of day, bait, and even quitting the game and logging back in.

Bro thanks! I am learning more by watching your videos than from the tutorial of the game 😂
No problem! Glad to help! 👍🏾💪🏾
You can fish on the road you can put your rod stand through the fence and you can get literally 50 feet from that spot and I use it in all the time
I have to try that. Thanks Gavin.
Haven't played much recently, just reached level 14 using this video. Awesome info 💪
Thanks Fonzie. Glad it helped.
Hey Charles, man thank you for this video. I went out and did what you said and had a blast. Great advice brother!
No problem! Glad to help!

Nice! Glad I could help.

Yoooo Alexander Really Appreciate that!
If you aim your spinner to the left towards the houses youll get bass as well instead of pike while waiting
Thanks Jocelyn

Do you have to be a certain level to buy certain food, because I do not see the bread with honey I am just starting
I've been using this spot and already first fish was a channel catfish! Thanks mate 👍 👌
Glad To Help @FiShInGmadness7
Good video brotha, first person to get in dept
Appreciate that Tyler! 👍🏾💪🏾
4 years on still works thank you
Started playing again, amazing game and thanks thats the perfect spot!
Welcome back and I totally agree. Glad I could help Robert! 👍🏾

Cant wait till i can afford to fish for realz.
Thank you I catch a fish almost every time I cast
💪🏾🎣💪🏾
Thank you! Finally got a catfish. Still working on the small mouth buff 😬
Nice. You'll catch it
thanks for the spot and the tips i have caught a 2 pounder and a 3 so thanks for the spot
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Maybe I’m not doing something right, but I keep on catching sunfish and shiners in that same spot with the bread and honey. Do you have any tips?
Most likely your hook size. Try a size #1 hook.
Thanks Charles helped a lot
Glad to help!
Honestly can’t wait for comps in this
The comps are cool but they can be a lil fluky. lol
Thank you for this set up it’s insane
No problem! Glad it still helps! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Its working bro. Thanks alot happy fishing
Glad to hear that. Tight lines!
ran across your spot not too long ago, enjoying all the info. thanks for all the help and I have learned a lot about the game. Still can't catch that Buffalo, but I think I will get it eventually
Glad to help and you'll catch that buffalo soon. The game can get a lil funny sometimes.
Grasshoppers work very well
Thanks MH
Thanks for the spot lol my first line in the water was broken I'm getting that small mouth
Get um!!! You might have gotten a catfish too. Also use semolina balls or dough balls for bait for that buffalo
@@CharlesMacro I got that smallmouth like a hour later now I'm in the fishery in France trying to catch the silver bream thanks bro
Thank you man! You deserve a lot more subs!
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
You were a big help thanks man!
Glad to help!
Can you do a beginners guide here at lone star I just turned level 7 today everything I have is default
Yes, I'll work on one. You want to know what to do from day one?
Not from day one but once I unlocked most things - I figured out how to get better rods and that stuff I just need to know what exactly to get, (bait, rods etc) where to fish in Missouri etc much appreciated
Thanks for the video it helped me so much👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome! Glad the video helped!
I keep getting shiners I use the exact same setup but tried dough balls bread with honey and hook 2 or 4 and it's a sunny day
Try different bait. Sometimes the game will act funny until you find that right bait.
tried that spot a lot but only one buffalo took a bite..man they hard to find..
Ah man. That stinks. Well try switching up bait, times, smaller hooks. Sometimes that helps.
I do the same thing but straight slow and at about 30ft I get a bite almost every time
Nice. I'll have to try that.
I'm level 8 and have been running a bobber rig. I've spent 2 days trying to catch this damn fish and haven't tried the bread with honey yet.
Let me know how it goes.
@@CharlesMacro now...if I can just catch the mad eye buffalo. Lmao
*Nice video thanks iam new in this game its very informative*
Thanks G. Glad I could help.
fuck eh, 3 years from now, an youre still helping, cheers mate ( you got mad good stuff though, haha)
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
You just helped me finally catch that fish thank you so much!
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
heres my trick for lonestar i use casting spoons for pickerel and small minnows for spot bass and small cut bait for channel cat fish
Thanks unkown
Your fishing vids are on point homie thanks for your vids
Appreciate it Drew! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
My rod cant cast out that far is there any spots that are closer?
You can try repositioning around the lake. Just try to hit the spot from another location.
On top of the dam, use your map to live yourself up...once you get your position set up, you'll need to cast out about 48 to 50 ft.
Fish from the fence
Also.. I tried pet food as bait, worked great for catfish lol
Oh yeah. Pet food is another good one. Thanks Kristy.
@@CharlesMacro thanks to your advice i also caught the illusive small mouth! On to the next one
@@kristyrayner7424 Noice. Really glad I could help. Those fish can be quite illusive! 🐟
I use the heavy chaser 9'10" sport with the ambusher 9000 reel with braid.12 and it works
Thanks for the tip Janet!
I can’t get the buffalo and i fished right in your same spot
Have you had any luck yet
use dough balls
Forward the time to peak time
Thank you so much :)
No problem. Glad I could help.
I have the exact setup as you i think but i hot another reel and i cant throw that far whats my problem and what hook do u use
Is the weight heavy enough. Is your line long enough?
I caught a 2 pound young channel cat out of there usually only catch those on the other side
NICE! 🎣
Trophy crappie are nuts on small minnows aswell
Thanks for the tip Daniel. I plan to come back to this lake and test more bait.
Good to know and I have a video idea you should do a video on the mad eye buffalo monster fish at lone star lake
I did everything you’re saying but I keep catching bluegill
The game is funny like that sometimes. I usually change hours or days. I even turn the game off and back on to reset the fish. Were you able to catch the smallmouth? They did some updates and moved it to another spot as well.
Shoot I said this along time ago I don’t really like the game that much anymore but when I do get back into it I will try
I need to know how to set up a feeder rod?
Ok. What question do you have about setting up?
@@CharlesMacro it said the tackle was too light then I changed the rod to another and then it worked :)
@@av3nt4dor8 Ok great. Yeah matching those weights and such can be a lil funny at first. Glad you were able to work it out.
Hit the hotspot and only pulled in shiners. I'll see how it goes after forwarding it to tomorrow.
Hey Larry. They nerfed it a bit. Try using semolina and dough balls. Also try turning left in in the same spot and casting past the Lily pads to the right a bit about 100-150 ft. I'm gonna make an updated vid.
Lmk if that helps.
@@CharlesMacro will do, thanks.
@@CharlesMacro hey bro did u ever make the update video?
@@203cyclone Yes I did an update. Here's the Buffalo:

Thanks and glad you've been catching them now. It may have been the weather. More catches to come!
Same. I’ve change the rod, hook, bite, time, places...Nothing. I’m hunting for this goddamn buffalo for weeks and still can’t complete this mission.
Thanks
No problem
Thanks!
Glad To Help peice
What is the name of the bell alarm on the end of your rod? I've looked but can't find it in the shop.
Should just be bells. Common or simple bells. If you don't see them, make sure you are not at a lake. Leave the lake and go to the shop on the home screen. You'll find everything there.
Very helpful thank you!!
Glad to help Colton!
Helped a lot thanks
