Bo Explains: The ULTIMATE ROD SETUP Guide! How to setup your rod to FISH! | Fishing Planet

[@silverskyranch]

Found this game a few days ago for my elderly dad who used to enjoy fishing but now cannot go do so anymore due to health, but we were confused about how to get started with rod set ups. I'll be doing most of the grinding and getting things set up so he can just enjoy catching fish. This video was very helpful! Thank you.

[@shinnybubbles9118]

How's the game been going for you and your father?

[@silverskyranch]

@@shinnybubbles9118 Was going well at first, dad and I both enjoying the game, but dad sadly passed away late last year and I haven't been able to bring myself to play it since due to the account being in dad's name. Will likely try again once I manage to finally get everything settled as a way to continue his memory.

Just descoverd this game and i can't thank you enough as it has helped me immensely. I was having trouble setting them up. Have 2 rod's set up now, a spinner and a lure (casting rod) up to level 7 now. Excellent video and you earned a Sub my man.

[@andrewcharlesevanch]

I've been playing fishing planet 3 days! This video is great. My biggest challenge was with REELS stuck in reverse. Easily fixed by spinning the mouse wheel forward. Second after purchasing a rod case, and, rod stand, finally learning how to use rod stands, to fish with multiple rods. Number 1-8 for bring up the rod, 9 for the stand and ZERO to empty the hands. Fishing Planet is a lot of fun! Thanks for making the video. Andrew = acesjet on fishing planet

This is the most useful tutorial I've seen on KZbin for this game

[@jololol7158]

I’ve played FP in 2017 and basically stopped after a while. Download the game 2 days ago and man I haven’t had this much fun since I last played. Actually looked up KZbin videos and yours to find good setups and never thought it would be so helpful.

[@Zudexa]

Great video. I recently got a friend into fishing planet and have been looking for good videos that explain the basics, you did an outstanding job explaining everything there is to know about rods and I even learned some new things after playing for about a year haha

I certainly do! I’d check out the series 2 beginner series

[@geofftumbler1609]

Thanks mate learned a lot looking forward to setting everything up now Cheers

[@Nerino]

This game is so complicated for my brain. I would love to see a guide how to know in what DEEP to fish and also what HOOK to use. Thanks

[@BoAngles]

Hook sizes, a lot of it is just testing. Use a small hook first, and if you continuously catch smaller fish, move up a size- then another, til you catch the biggest size of fish the lake has to offer (sizes can be seen under the lake when you look at the species available)

[@BoAngles]

Depth is worth testing too- usually it doesn’t matter too much til the water gets VERY deep

[@Nerino]

@@BoAngles Thanks, I'm also confused about these numbers #1/0 and #1, #8 which one is the smallest one and what's the differencence between those two?

[@BoAngles]

@@Nerino Right, I think I talk about it in this video. Basically think of a number line -10 to 0 and then to positive 10. #10 is -10, the smallest hook in this example. The hooks get larger as they move towards #1 and then from #1 they go to #1/0. This is basically -1 hopping to positive 1. From there, hooks continue to get larger from #1/0 to #10/0. So, #10 small - #10/0 big.

[@thoraxe2000]

Didn’t know it shows whether it is a casting rod or spinning rod and if it’s a lure or bobber rod. Do you think they should try adding casting bottom rods?

Absolutely! That’s what I use irl 😊

I wonder if I can use a setup rod to catch 30kg fish in a lake with small fishes like 2kg so it's easier to pull them out or I must match a setup or being a bit above of the average fish in that pond?

I think as long as the lures or hooks are small, you should be good!

Hello BZHub thanks for this one! I have no idea what some Rod types are... I only ever used telescopeds and spinners. Appreciated!

[@alexallen6395]

What is the best way to tell depth of the water when fishing besides constantly using a bobber or a float to guess the depth?

[@BoAngles]

That is a great question, I’m honestly not sure. Another way you could get a general sense is by using an… 8ft crank bait for instance, then basing its depth for the body of water

[@DrownedLobster]

What do the different type of lines do, mono, braid and fluoro

[@tahoma6889]

Float setups with long rods and casting reels are great verses Steelhead and Salmon in rivers real life. I see this may be the case in game as well.

Thanks for the video even tho it’s old it helps a bit

Couldn't ask for a more straight-forward video

[@darrenschreier3759]

Thanks so much- just started this game and I’m addicted. Your video on rod set ups has been so helpful, just one thing I have noticed that up top where all your rods are green how do get that?

[@TheMcC07]

For a free game, it's strangely addicting. I've started using barbless hooks for the extra xp, and I'm trying to find the balance of getting a setup that doesn't take me forever to land the fish, but isn't overpowered for the fish and reduces xp.

[@BoAngles]

Yes! That’s a difficult balance sometimes depending on the fish!

[@PhilippaMackness]

seems with casting rod it doesn’t actually cast very far, got all the right weigjt of things but only casts 100ft ish, confused as to how it’s called casting rod if it doesn’t cast far? any tips??

Hey bo, just making sure your still gonna stream Monday Half n' Half, and on what platform?

[@Eli-ow9rq]

hey bo, quick question. How do you know when to use braided and normal line?

[@BoAngles]

Honestly doesn't matter too much, just use the right weight for your rod and reel to get max drag.

[@Eli-ow9rq]

@@BoAngles k thanks!

[@muhamadabshar1083]

Feeder rods vs bottom rods, which one is good? Im at level 10. I have match rods and casting rod.

[@muhamadabshar1083]

Oh yea, im planning to use rod stand

[@BoAngles]

Bottom rods are mainly used later on once feeder rods aren’t strong enough for the fish

[@catfishandbass8680]

Fantastic video!

[@NackDSP]

Caution. Select rod strength and line strength close to the same value and then pick a reel with a max drag that is lower! Don't use reels with drag higher than the rod and line strengths as shown in this video. You will break a rod or line doing that. Very important. If the max reel drag is greater than the line or rod, you have to be very careful to keep away from ever using the max drag setting on the reel or you will blow up and lose your expensive lure or break your rod before you know what happened when you hook a big fish.

[@ob1983]

Great video, just getting started in this game, video just perfect. Do you think they will add an option to pick by rod type, it is sorely need. 👌

[@YaaSalty...0_o]

[@djd3mon223]

Thanks Bo. Ive been playing since June of 2020 and I always struggled with matching my rod and reels to get it optimal. I also never realized why some rods I could only use lure or weight/floats.

[@2121antoncilliers]

Hi I have the exact same setup for the telescopic rod that you have but I still can only throw my line in at 23m, I really don't understand that. With every setup on that rod I cant cast further than 23m, why is that? Cant even find an answer for that on KZbin. Plz help me before my screen gets a bat!!!

[@BoAngles]

Well- if I'm talking about the correct thing- those rods usually don't throw out very far anyway. And they're not really meant to. They're really long so that you can throw very light tackle. If you want to throw a bobber further- try a match rod.

[@2121antoncilliers]

@@BoAngles can you maybe prefer 1 coz I'm almost broke from buying all the things they say on KZbin and nothing works to get my line further in, I would appreciate it
