Have you heard the buzz that’s going around the County? The Fall Fishing Tournament begins today! Gus is once again raring to compete with our best fishermen!
Here is your chance to challenge other farmers to see who wins the top spot! While you’re competing with others, you’ll also be trying to beat your own personal score. So, build the Fall Tournament Shack and Fishing Tournament Spot in your farm. Get to the very top to win a baby Tyrol Grey Mini Cow, Amber Shovel and Trophies!
If you are level 15 or higher, the “The Fall Fishing Tournament!” popup will appear. Click on the “Place Building” button to begin the feature.
The first step to build the Shack is to collect all the materials you need.
Then, ask your friends for help or hire builders.
The finished Fall Tournament Shack, which you can place anywhere on your farm, will look like this:
While the finished Tournament Fishing Spot, which is automatically placed in the river, will look like this:
To join the Tournament, click on the Fishing Spot. On the menu you’ll see that there are four types of fish that you can catch from four different parts of the river: Cod, Salmon, Pike, and Sturgeon. Take note of the weight of each fish when you make a choice of which to catch.
Groundbait
After choosing which fish to catch, you must first prepare the area with Groundbait by clicking on the “Prep Area” button.
You will then be asked to craft Groundbait. There are three Groundbait tabs to choose from: Catch 3 Fish using Premium Groundbait, Catch 2 Fish using Special Groundbait, and Catch 1 Fish using Basic Groundbait.
If you have all the ingredients, click on the Make button to start crafting. But, don’t worry if you are lacking ingredients! You can get Bait by harvesting fertilized Water Crops. Ask and Post for the Algae Wafers and Kelp Flakes, and get Belladonna Lilies to plant from the General Store.
There is a waiting time before you can proceed to fish. Take note that each Fishing Area differs in the amount of time it takes to craft the Groundbait
While waiting, you can prepare another Fishing Area.
Once the waiting time is over, you can go catch a fish by clicking on the “Go Fishing” button
Tournament Point Scores
By using Premium Groundbait, you can catch three fish. These will be weighed to get the total Tournament Point Scores
To know how many Tournament Point Scores, you can check the counter at the lower left portion of the menu.
You will start earning rewards when you reach milestones in the Tournament. The yellow bar will mark your progress.
Once you have collected 115 Tournament Point Scores, you are qualified to compete in the Fall Fishing Tournament!
Fall Fishing Tournament
Once you’ve earned 115 Tournament Point Scores, the Scoreboard will appear in the upper left portion of the menu. Click on the “View More” button to see details.
On the left side of the Scoreboard you will see the rankings of the farmers who are leading the tournament. At the end of the tournament, the top 3 farmers will get great rewards!
On the right side of the Scoreboard you will see your personal score. This records the points you get for each type of Tournament Fish you catch. Strive to get the highest points for each fish to win rewards!
Ragworms
When you join the tournament, you’ll be rewarded with Ragworms.
These Ragworms are used to lure larger fish so you earn more Tournament Points.
Make use of the Ragworms wisely as they last for only 24 hours.
By upgrading the Ragworms, you can attract even larger fish!
We’re all excited to see who’s going to land the top spot! Join the Tournament now and win amazing rewards!
