FISHING MECHANICS TUTORIAL.

Your objective is to get the fish EXHAUSTED, after which you will be able to easily reel in and capture the fish. Mind you, the distance between you and the fish is not an indicator of how tired the fish is. The rarer and bigger the fish, the further it will swim away and the more pulls it will need before getting exhausted.

·         The first gauge you see is the one that gives you greater chances of capturing a bigger fish, but is not related to the fish rarity, the rarity is influenced by premium lures only.

·         You need to tap on the Reel Button in the lower-center of the screen to cast your line

·         The Gauge. while fishing, you will spend most of the time looking at the gauge meter, which is your best friend when getting the fish exausted. Tap and hold the reel button to reel in, and release if there’s a warning

·         Filling Up the Strength Bar. the blue bar below the tension gauge meter, which is initially empty should be filled in order to gain enough strength to allow you to pull the fishing rod, and getting the fish exausted. This bar can be fille with two techniques, one is by doing consecutive spins, and the other is by getting the tension gauge to the limit (reaching the P letter at the end of the meter, you will hear a sound when you do so)

·         Consecutive Spins. racking up consecutive spins is another way to gather strength. This can only be done when the fish has a green icon on top of it, otherwise you rish cutting off the line if the tension gauge goes off the limit.

·         Reaching the End of the Tension Gauge. each time you do so, the power gauge (below the tension meter) is filled a bit more. You will certainly have to do this a lot with rare fishes, since they don’t allow you to do a lot of consecutive spins, at least not when they just bit the lure.

·         Full Power Gauge. when the power gauge is full, swipe the reel up to use the power sill.

·         Yanking The Fish. Sometimes, the fish will jump out of the water, when it does so, you will see a big arrow pointing either left or right, at that right point, you need to swipe the reel button left of right to yank the fish back, this way you will get the fish a bit more tired and gain a bit of line, which is sometimes crucial if the fish is really far away.

ACE FISHING SUCCESSFUL FISHING TIPS.

·         Each time you pull or yank the rod, you inflict damage to the fish, this is what gets the fish exhausted. The amount of damage inflicted is affected by 3 factors, the rod damage score (and extra properties), the booster you have loaded, if any, and the type of line as well. Having a high damage output means you will have to pull or yank the rod a lot less, thus taking less time to capture the fish

·         If you are expecting to catch rare fishes and boss fishes, don’t even dream of doing so with regular lure and short lines, buy those first and then go fishing. Boss fishes will swim really far away and require a lot of line extension.

·         Always try to stay at the top of the tension gauge and keep touching the end of it. This technique is absolutely a must when dealing with rare fishes, since the longer it takes to get the fish exhausted, the further away it swims, risking the line to cut off in the process.

·         Having the tension gauge too low risks risks your lure to cut off from the line.

·         Do not pay attention to how far away the fish is, this is not an indicator of how tired the fish is. Instead try to pull in the fishing rod as many times as possible in the shortest amount of time, either by pulling the fishing rod up or yanking the fish, the objective is to get the fish exhausted, not to get the fish closer to you.

·         Each fish has a different behavior pattern

·         The higher the region you are fishing in, the longer it will take to take a fish out of the water

FISHING REPORT.
After catching the fish, you obtain a fishing grading scale;

·         Stars represent the rarity of a fish, and can range from 1 to 5 stars. The higher the rarity property of your fishing rod, the greater chance you have of catching a 5-star fish. Notice this rarity is different from rare fishes, which are simply fishes that are hard to come by

·         Fish are awarded grades on a scale fo D to SSS by their length. The longer their length, the higher their grade. Your chances of encountering a larger fish increase with a higher Big Fish Chance.

·         The Ranking Score of the fish is based on its Grade and the number of Stars.

·         You can earn Gold and EXP instantly when you sell your fish. You can also pleace your fish in the Fish Tank and sell them for a higher price when they get bigger.

·         MAX Growth Reward. this is the maximum price you can sell your fish for when you place it in the fish tank. Fish Growth rates differ fro every fish, and the maximum price and growth rate are determined by the number of stars and their Grade. Some fish can be sold for Cash when fully grown, so pay attention. Also, rare fishes yield a lot of gold, but also take days to fully grow up.

·         In order to sell the fish for the max growth reward, you need to add them to the fish tank.

FISHING EQUIPMENT.
Rods, Reels, Lures, Fishing Lines and Boosters are all the items you have to deal with fishes, and except for Boosters, all of them must be equipped before fishing.

You do have with you Basic Fishing Rods, Lines and Lures, these have unlimited uses, but they also have much less damage output, rarity fish caching chances and line length.

For each location, you have a 3-tier set of lures and lines, two of them cost gold, the other one costs cash. When spending gold, you always have enough to purchase both a line and a lure of the same grade, because if you get a high-end lure with a regular line, chances are the fish will cut off the line because of it being too short.

Fishing Rods. Unless you are using your basic rod, all the other rods require repair every 20 uses. Rods have special properties, which increase the damage in certain fishing locations. You can reset a fishing rod properties by getting a property reset ticket a treasure chest (golden ones preferably)

Power-Ups: common power ups increases your fishing rod or reel damage, but an advanced power up gives you additional properties. Advanced ones cost cash, while common ones cost gold. Rods/Reels can only be upgraded a limited amount of times, but you will eventually realize that is better to power up the rod than to save an insane amount of gold for the next rod tier.

Reels. Unless you are using your basic reel, all the other rods require repair every 20 uses. Reels have special properties, which increase the damage in certain fishing locations. You can reset a fishing rod properties by getting a property reset ticket a treasure chest (golden ones preferably)

Lure. There are 3 tiers or lure for each fishing location. Common, Rare and High-End. Common lures do not increase the chances of catching rare fishes, but do increase your efficiency in a particular fishing location, so they are indeed better than the basic lure, although it’s not explained how. Rare and High-End lure increase both the rarity fish catching chances and the big fish catching chances.

Fishing Lines. just like with lures, there’s a 3-tier set for each fishing location. Each one having a better line tension and line length than the previous one. Unlike lures, you can actually use high tier line for lower locations. The tension prevents the line from cutting off when you reach the end of the tension gauge. The line length is crucial when dealing with boss fishes and rare fishes. You will soon realize than you simply can’t fish with a basic line, even when dealing with the most common fish in higher regions.

·         Line Tension: inflicts damage according to the line tension. More damage is inflicted with a higher line tension

·         Line Length: you can catch fish from up to the distance of your line length. But careful, your line will snap if the fish swims beyond your line length.

Boosters. these items are optional, and they increase your XP yields and gold yields each time you catch a fish. There are also boosters that increase your big fish chances, rarity chances and damage chances, but all of them cost a lot of cash.

TOURNAMENTS.
Big Fish Tournaments give out premium lure, lines and cash to those that catch the biggest fish of a certain type or catches the most amount of a target fish. These tournaments can be found in all locations, and all of them are scheduled, being opened for a single time during just a few hours. Of course, each tournament has a min level and a cap level to be entered, that always correlates to the location where the tournament takes place. should not be mistaken with Events [e.g. "Catch the Golden & Rainbow Fish" or "Conquer Hawaii"]. There are two types of Tournaments;

·         The fisher who catches the biggest target fish will win the Tournament. In the case of a tie, the first person to reach the record wins. The Tournament Reward will be sent to your Mailbox within 2 hours (after the tournament ends.)

·         The fisher who catches the biggest target fish will the Tournament. In the case of a tie, the first person to reach the record wins. The tournament reward will be sent to your mailbox within 2 hours (after the tournament ends)

QUESTS.
Quests should be your primary concern during the early stages of the game, because the XP they yield will allow you to level up fast.

Main Quests. each region (e.g. Waikiki Beach, Hanauma Bay, Lahaina Beach, etc) has its own set of quests, exactly 10 quests per region. You always get XP points and gold for completing a quest, and sometimes cash.

Daily Quests. daily quests are refreshed every 24 hours. You can spend 1 cash to reset it, and also receive a reward for doing so.

THE FISH TANK.
The fish tanks are where you place your fishes when you decide they are worth the time waiting to be sold at a much higher price if you are willing to wait a bit more.

You can have multiple fishing tanks at once, some of them cost a lot of gold and some cost cash. You can also expand them individually, by adding new fish slots. Two tanks are enough until you reach the Mariana trenches. By then, fishes need a lot more time to grow and you will probably need a summer lake tank as well.

MILESTONES.
Ace Fishing Milestones are commonly known as achievements in other games. Each time you complete one, you are rewarded with premium items, such us rare or high-end lures.

THE FISH LIST.
Each fishing region has a fish book, which not only contains the list of fishes you can find (and that are only revealed once you actually capture them) but also reward you with a special item each time you complete a tier. There’s a total of 168 fishes awaiting to be caught.

THE WORLD MAP.
There are 4 different locations so far in the game, Hawaii, Lake Minnetonka, Mariana Trench and the Amazon River, with more coming soon

Each location contains 3 different fishing regions, each one with its own min level requirement to enter. There’s also a big fish tournament in each one of them.
