Fishing Planet - Michigan - Sturgeon/Blue Catfish XP Farm

[@Zabby]

California Farm next video!

[@Jreichh]

This makes almost nothing. About 9.8k for a 264.6lb fishing net. Pike is like 20k

[@Zabby]

@@Jreichh it's better for XP

[@Jreichh]

@@Zabby blue channel cat atleast gives 220xp at 32lb and $1000. 44lb sturgeon was 589xp and $2052. Trophy northern pike 21lb gives 458xp and $1641.. you do the math

[@Zabby]

@@Jreichh Gotta catch the Trophy cats and also the pike die out way quicker than these. It's also nice cause you can do pike during the day then these at night

[@Jreichh]

@@Zabby yah I wasn't able to get any trophy! I suck lol

Even though zabby is a small KZbin channel right now it's always good to see the people comment and reply to your stuff it brings joy to a lot of people keep up the great work dude

[@Zabby]

Thanks for the kind words :)

[@RJGinson]

Many of your videos have been a very big help and have brought me back into the game. But I have learned that, while going for the bigger fish, if you drop your anker to stop then lift it before you cast, the fight isn't as hard or long but the XP is pretty much the same. Works great for sturgeon in California

[@jlferrell123]

First time I casted here with your suggested setup I caught a 74 pound unique blue catfish. Thank you for the tips. The bottom feeder DLC is definitely worth it for this rod/reel.

[@jakewarren704]

Thanks for this video. I was trying out the spawn sack after level 39 and it's pretty much only getting me brown trout ... thinking for xp purposes you're better sticking with the large cutbait if anyone else is wondering about trying that.

[@Zabby]

I use large cutbait here and then spawn sack for the sturgeon in Cali!

[@SunshineofDawn]

Duck Mussel Meat works for Sturgeon

Waiting for the next vid😁

[@winndixie6361]

Hahahaha..best part of vid.....when you fast forwarded it ,it looked like you was having a seizure lol( no pun to epilepsy ppl) lol but anyways thanks zabby love all your vids and you've helped us so much and I thank you sir..

[@AnonYmous-wm6wq]

10:00 you can make the same amount of money and xp catching stripped bass, steelhead, and salmon at San Joaquin as that and you can do it twice as fast.

[@fsasrico5887]

The weight on the bottom rods is to high! Less weight on the sinkers would be perfect. But i like youre channel. Interesting and full of tips. Subscribed!👍

[@Zabby]

Yeah im just too cheap to buy new sinkers lol, tho the damage it causes is negligible

[@MarkMarshallPhotography]

Hey Zabby, you've been a great help getting me through quarantine and now a wrist surgery, lots of downtime lol...can you explain tackle boxes and how you acquired such a huge (156 slots) backpack storage...hope your move went/is going well!

[@thomatherton5759]

You can buy them

[@HDTTW666]

Is DLC rod/reels ok to use or will it kill the xp gain too much?

[@andrewbrown1768]

Is the smaller rods worth the extra time to reel in for xp. You could get maybr 2 or 3 other fish with better rods with lower xp but overall would be higher because of the number of fish coming in.

[@hoppy857h5]

It's a great spot for the sturgeon, though my avatar doesn't move and the only thing I'm able to do is change the rods..... Does my head in!!! 😡

[@asap__bloodbath5765]

For a heavy chaser 9' 6" bottom rod line weight 19.8 to 52.9 power X heavy what size sinker do I use I brought a couple over a once

[@Zabby]

I normally just buy a few different sizes not sure which one exactly will help you but usually I use 200 or below iirc.

[@tremoir]

Is there a particular reason you use different Bottom Sniper rods instead of just two 330's? Love your vids.

[@jokerpaisa4ever]

I use barbless hooks for extra xp

[@Zabby]

Yup!

[@Blitzkit]

Ill try sturgeons tho they only offer 100$ per kilos while wallys still offer 190-200$ per kilos. tho the only good is that this can fill your net really really fast.

[@Zabby]

Usually just use Sturgeons and Cats in Michigan to fill my net after Pike and Muskie.

[@flooperza6969]

Legit been reeling in for 30 minutes

[@seaxomp8613]

That’s why I don’t fish for catfish I just fish for pike way more fish and way more money

[@diode86]

Farming catfish for xp on lvl44 still good?

[@jordanasparadoxproductions8401]

I think pike gives a little bit more xp and it's way easier to catch them but also not a bad video :)

[@arturspomerancis]

I'm lvl 26 any tips for me to get good xp?

[@Zabby]

Unique Bass in Everglades, Unique Trout in Falcon just keep grinding!

[@JameyCampbell_54]

Walleye in New York is the best money & xp until Michigan pike/etc then California sturgeon and huge unique carp is the ultimate cash and XP farm

[@cooperatherton3433]

Can ya do a guide for comps eg the gold rush yellow perch comp or something

[@joestanley2240]

Just caught my first sturgeon

[@connordover2215]

Any way you can float fish for sturgeon??

[@Zabby]

Yeah i've seen people do it here

[@siei2ioiuis844]

Hey all I play fishing planet on xbox rank 1 for xp at the minute but over night I keep losing points does anyone no y

[@Zabby]

Think it's 7 day leaderboards so you are losing a day where you had higher XP

[@o2envy665]

Savvy how do I gain rank exp?

[@Zabby]

What do you mean?

[@o2envy665]

Zabby rank exp you see on people Names after there level. You can see it on your profile to. I’m unsure how they earn it and no one can really tell me how to earn it. I thought it was through tournament but it’s not.

[@magicbbman32]

How do you clip a line so the cast goes the same distance?

[@eviseratorkyle]

c on pc

[@magicbbman32]

@@eviseratorkyle thanks, I was pretty new when posted that. PS4 is L1 and R 1. Never realized it said on top of the screen after each first cast.

[@tiller7896]

Hey dude I just subbed I was wondering if you could help me with some things 1.)how do I earn money for the game 2.)how do I use the spinners and lures I un-equip hooks and my bonnet and it isn’t available I try to use it and nothing happens 3.) I bought dough balls but I don’t know where they went it said they went to my storage but how do I get to my storage 4.) do I need specific rods for lures and shad , grub etc thanks in advance

[@Zabby]

I have a bunch of videos for each different lake, the best early game money farms are Walleye in Emerald, and Bass in Everglades. You are trying to use lures and spinners on a float setup which is why it wont equip you need to buy a spinning lure setup, there's icons on the right that show lure or float. Storage you can only access when you are not at a lake, if you by them at the lake and they go to storage its because you don't have any room, so delete something and rebuy and you will get them right away.

[@tiller7896]

Zabby ok thanks dude I only have 3 locations unlocked so far

[@tiller7896]

Zabby just caught my first 2 spotted bass on a shad thanks to you thanks bro I’m gonna upload just like you and stream

[@cameron3499]

Can you use any of the Brutus rods

[@Zabby]

If you would like to float fish sure anything with similar max weight can do the job

[@eztarget1390]

I think catfishing is better then muskie in this location seems better time spent, gear is important i have been bit off though i think that was muskie as i do not have titanium leaders that pair up with my lines though my bottom dlc rod has never been bit off it has 43lb line though. A note you should show the gear in both measurements to help people using non metric.

[@kingjames4886]

well it's not so that hard when you know that the sturgeon are in fact in the shallow part of the lake and not the deep part like the game says... thanks >.

[@NackDSP]

Oops, that 13.6 kg weight line will break with the 14.5 max setting on that reel. That's a bad combination. Always always always build with Rod strength >= Leader & Line test strength > Reel max drag. Keeping these numbers as close as possible and to the minimum required for the fish and use barbless hooks for maximum XP. Of course the titanium leader will actually set the limit as these are typically too small at every level. This game loves to mess with you leaving giving you bad choices for rod, reel, line and leaders available at each level. Usually have to settle for smaller equipment due to the limited leader strength you can buy at each level. Metric unit for force is Newtons. Not sure why this game uses units of mass, ie grams, for the strength of all the equipment.

[@jaredrogers7863]

actually wrong as possible. Always keep your line 1 lb or so lighter than your rod and reel, so it snaps off first and doesnt break your equipment

[@Morphman19]

@@jaredrogers7863 neither of you is wrong. Just different set ups. He is using the max drag set up. Helps to fight fish better but is more expensive to run due to the reel degrading faster. The classic set up is the safe bet because you mitigate your reel from breaking mid fight and it’s cheaper to run but fights last longer unless you are using over leveled gear which mitigates xp. Both have their merits and draw backs. The only stupid set up is the power rod set up which will leave you will a broken rod and it can’t be fixed.

[@DiscoveryDarks]

That damn interface sound is so annoying. I had to turn it off 10 mins into starting the game.
