THANKS! - TA Admins ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone, just to let you know that the worldwide release will take place Thursday next week, on February 25th 2016. Also, if you have problems catching special fish try this: you need to get them interested to the bait, and get a small fish to eat the bait. Often, the special fish will get mad at this and eat the small fish on the hook Here's our release trailer: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Cheers!

Could we reuse the bait if we didn't catch anything? Currently even getting the basic bait for the first pond seems overly expensive to me, so either give us cheaper bait or allow us to reuse bait. I feel like I'm mainly fishing from the kiddy pool to get the gold I need for a chance to fish elsewhere. Gluskap Well-Known Member Sep 12, 2015 236 1 16 #4 Gluskap, Feb 25, 2016 You open the box and "Already owned basic hook, red cap...... (wait for xx min to open same box that contains another item you already own)". Such a brilliant idea from developers. Wafflesandbeer Member Jan 28, 2016 24 0 0 #5 Wafflesandbeer, Feb 25, 2016 In the beta you used to be able to catch smaller fish and let them dance around the water surface, using them as bait to catch the larger/special fish. At some point one of the updates removed this functionality but a dev post claimed they didn't change anything. Can anyone confirm whether or not this functionality still works? It's really a deal breaker for me if it doesn't still work because otherwise buying premium bait becomes a pretty big paywall. Using the smaller fish to catch bigger ones was a challenge and a good free alternative, IMO. merrickal Well-Known Member Dec 15, 2012 52 0 6 #6 merrickal, Feb 25, 2016 Been playing a bit more and while it doesn't happen very often, I've seen larger fish chomping on smaller ones I had on the lone twice. Perhaps they've reduced the chance of it occurring? panama chief Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 193 0 0 #7 panama chief, Feb 25, 2016 Last edited: Feb 25, 2016 Happened a few times but the little fish was always right by the larger fish and both were moving towards the bait at the same time. It's like the larger fish gets pissed and eats whatever's on the hook, but only if they're competing. Never saw a "dancing on top of the water" type thing tho. Also props to the devs for a good friend system. I get rewarded for inputting your code and you get rewarded too. Perfect. Wafflesandbeer Member Jan 28, 2016 24 0 0 #8 Wafflesandbeer, Feb 25, 2016 This is how the dev said it was working the whole time but it wasn't in my experience. Used to be you could just let a small fish swim around on your hook while you waited for a special fish to show up. Then you reeled it up to the surface to splash around which would get the special fish's attention and sometimes they'd bite. It was slower than just using premium bait, but it worked consistently. This stopped working after one of the updates. They either need to bring this back or make it so special bait ONLY attracts special fish and not others. Otherwise it will be so expensive to complete the game. Shame, because this game is awesome otherwise. larrytapowski Member Sep 1, 2014 6 0 0 #9 larrytapowski, Feb 25, 2016 leveling up your gear I'm enjoying the game so far. I've been playing pocket mine 2 for a very long time so I'm in it for the long game but I have a question about the attack power of my gear vs the fish. How is it that a fish with 60 or 70 power can just break my line when I have 100 on my pole? Does the fishing line, reel, and gloves help add to it?

I've seen it before, but wasn't strong enough to catch it yet. Now I am and can't find the thing! Ostermi Member Apr 1, 2010 18 0 1 #13 Ostermi, Feb 26, 2016 For the great white shark, it appears randomly. It happens to me too. Don't worry he will come back dondo Member Mar 28, 2015 18 0 0 #14 dondo, Feb 26, 2016 Last edited: Feb 26, 2016 I must not understand how the strength vs defense is calculated because I can't seem to catch a fish until its 20 points under me. Everytime I land a fish that is around my score or within 10 points, the line breaks within a second or two. Am I doing something wrong here? mj132 Well-Known Member Oct 2, 2013 354 5 18 United Kingdom #15 mj132, Feb 26, 2016 Loving this game way more than I thought I would just need more cash to keep fishing but other this game is a pleasant surprise Doug84 Active Member Jun 9, 2014 32 0 6 #16 Doug84, Feb 27, 2016 Games been fun, went ahead and bought the coin doubler. Certainly helps progress a bit. The only issue is the premium bait.. I just wish it could be bought with regular currency. Anyone else getting along fine without it? I notice it takes a bit longer but rare fish do occasionally bite the normal bait. netherjade8 Active Member May 6, 2013 35 0 0 #17 netherjade8, Feb 27, 2016 My biggest gripe is the bait too. Or gaining currency isn't like it is in pocket mine. Other than that fun game. So the customizations are cosmetics only? blastemup Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2009 67 0 0 #18 blastemup, Feb 27, 2016 Coin doubler? I can't find that. Fun game-but I can only play for a few minutes-then I run out of bait-don't have enough money to buy more-so I turn it off. Try again later when some money shows up-fish a few minutes, run out of bait, no money again to buy more-so turn it off again. Sure would be fun if I could play for more than 10 -20 minutes. Where is the coun doubler? Hidden? netherjade8 Active Member May 6, 2013 35 0 0 #19 netherjade8, Feb 27, 2016 When you land a fish there is a option where you sell it it says "double it" blastemup Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2009 67 0 0 #20 blastemup, Feb 27, 2016 Oh, ok, thanks, I just figured that option to "double it" was to watch an ad. So, ok, I bought that (4.99?) Hopefully I can now play this game for more than a few minutes. Thanks again. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
