Fishing Planet #8 - S6 | Blue Crab Island: UNIQUE Tarpon and the BEST XP Grinding Hotspot!

Fishing Planet #8 - S6 | Blue Crab Island: UNIQUE Tarpon and the BEST XP Grinding Hotspot!
After receiving many tips and advice from my viewers, I have gone back to the fishing spot I showcased in a earlier episode, only this time I am applying their suggestions which include:
- 2 to 4 bottom rods with #6/0 hooks
- Using Shrimps and Large Minnows
- Fishing out 60 - 80 ft (approx. 20 meters) to the east
- Hit the DAILY peaks hard
The fish bite so quickly that I can barely keep up! Plus you catch trophy and unique specimens as often as the common. In this episode, the following fish are caught:
- Tarpon (Common, Trophy, AND Unique)
- Black Drum (Common & Trophy)
- Gafftopsail Catfish (Common, Trophy, AND Unique)
- Bonefish (Common and Trophy)
- Permit (Common)
- Red Drum (Common)
- Common Snook

Blue Crab is a wonderful waterway and tarpon are loads of fun with all the runnung, jumping and then swimming towards you. Combined with the bite rate you got a real winner.

[@bradyobrien9]

I love your calm mellow videos. Nice change up from some of the other big Fishing Planet guru's. Appreciate you sharing with us!.

[@HawkeyeM]

Thanks so much!

[@danielstevenson1250]

He could easy be a airline pilot. Imagine that voice? Yes I understand a door flew off,no extra charge for the great view overlooking CRAB ISLAND.

[@bradyobrien9]

@@danielstevenson1250 100%. LOL

[@cant_see_me7765]

YES!!! YES!!!YES!!! first cast on your closest marker to you in vid got me a tarpon, my only spot i knew for these in Fishing Planet is at the house and dock location, reg trophy and uni came from it, bit no doing in The Fisherman for me 😔 i was sad, but this vid made me happy 😄😄 Update!!!! i just got a 55lb trophy tarpon too

[@PrimalPrimeape]

I usually catch tarpon with a 7/0 major popper and a float setup with a 7/0 hook using crab, large minnows or scaled sardine. You can also get permit with a 5/0 buzzbait with x series nymphes

[@kaywrldd9993]

Bro live the vids keep it up

[@saul100emperorofthegoldene8]

nice Tarpon

[@dragonzeyemagazine1930]

Thanks for the info. We have watched several of your vidz and enjoy your tone and style very much. The rod stand beeping is annoying, if you are not aware. Keep fishing 🐉

[@markd2322]

so unusual to go to that spot and not be elbow to elbow with other players.

[@Xeno79morph]

make your own room and you can fish all alone

[@chaseelzinga4640]

There is a glitch you if you go toward the windmills you can go past the booeys by basically glitching your boat under the invisible barrier and you basically have an infinite amount of area to take your boat lol. Now I did this like a year ago so I’m not sure if it still works.

[@user-dg4yc1cj7i]

Hey Hawkeye any idea when they are gonna deep sea fishing???

[@HawkeyeM]

I only know it is literally any day now. BZHub apparently did an interview with one of the Devs a few days ago. i haven't had a chance to watch, but you might gain more info from his interview. Bo and I were hoping to do a collab some time after it pops, so I am looking forward to it!

[@ConspiracyPundit]

Just got here and that plane keeps making me jump lol. Well, when I say just nine in-game days. The only thing I have left is the buffalo to catch and I am back to Mongolia, grinding the taimen gives much better XP overall. Top tip do not come here until you are level 55 and bring a spinning rod that can handle a one and a-half once lure. I won the one here and my rod can not. Also, bring waxworms for the largemouth buffalo as you can not buy those or the teknoplankton either.

[@pigsen6688]

How do you grind for taimen?

[@ConspiracyPundit]

@@pigsen6688 It would need a video, but let's just say it involves fishing in the dark. I do grind at blue crab now using the same technique. Catch unique and fast forward. You can only do this at night unless you want to burn bait coins, and if you are doing that then just pay to win. I am determined to level 80 with no money down. The only thing I can see to spend coins on in this game extra space for your home storage and barbless hooks. I wasted about 200 coins buying licenses to the first few fishing spots, thinking that the coins would drop as fast as they do at the start. WRONG! If I had the balls to go back to level one I would only spend my coins this way. Maku, Maku is a nightmare, as even doing the night jumps the big fish.... can not remember how to spell do not drop quickly enough. The monster quest has dropped in Mongolia so going to do some grinding back there, but blue crab is the best. Black and Red drum and even the awful Permit, if unique drop excellent exp. The final thing, use only one bottom rod and three majesty float rods. Majesty rods have a smoother action and will get the big ones in quicker. Good luck with your grind, I did level 36-50 on Sturgeon. God hates me.

[@deedlefish]

@@ConspiracyPundit I just got lvl 40 on ftp but it's so boring farming sturg

[@erenfatal]

Hey!!!

[@ronniejones7436]

Having trouble catching a uni tarpon.I don't know why,I fish st the dock,by the barge.I use scaled sardines crab and LG minnows no luck

[@aerothecinderace9083]

Will you ever again play russian fishing 4?

[@jakemorrison482]

Woohoooooo

[@waynegoin5534]

except for a uni the cash per pound and exp sucks. most of the regulars are like 400 exp and not even close to 1k money

[@Barraslayer89]

Who else at the start with the tarpon he got did you see it jumping it was crazy

[@Ale.982]

I catch 1 tarpon with 136lb💪

[@Alman23]

If you stop Reeling in when the fish pulls line then he will not go that far just that you know

[@lilhugito7185]

Is the boat worth the money?

[@HawkeyeM]

I think so. It is a bit bulky and cumbersome, but it is the only boat in FP that has rod holders!

[@cnorth1562]

That tarpon was a small unique the biggest I’ve seen is over 150

[@craiglunn4137]

i have the current record 154

[@diode86]

5 in game days, same tactics, no tarpon in sight. Dunno whats wrong.

[@ronniejones7436]

I fished for 12 in game days and only got 2 common tarpon idk what I'm doing wrong
