To All You Unique Fishermen

[Green777]

Hi ive seen quite a few people catch 10LB+ unique largemouth bass on the Florida Everglades map. What i would like to know, whats the best rod and reel to use on the everglades to give me a chance to catch unique fish myself on this map. Any help would be most greatful.
Other point as there any levels past level 40 ? Thank you !!!

Any setup that's rated for 12-15 pounds will be plenty for big largemouth bass. Just make sure your setup is balanced. Rod>reel>line.

And the levels continue indefinitely. After 40 is 40+1, I've heard of players that are 40+100 and above. However, you get very little in the way of rewards past level 40.

I only play 3 months. So far, I have already reached 40 level + 66.
There are those who have 40 + 1300 (+) But they have been playing for several years

My personal favorite is the bass caster 7'10" casting rod together with counsellor 3500 S casting reel using braided .009" line. Dragsetting 7 is optimal, which generates a drag force of 19.25 lb. (Can also use councellor 3000 P with same dragsetting).
Any topwater lure and speed 1, works like a charm. (Frog popper is very nice since it wont get any snags) Im using this for both largemouths and "peacöcks" (fishing planet, please fix censored words...). Fishing peak hours during both day and night is almost a 100% guarantee to get the uni largemouth at some point.

My other setup for largemouth is the Thora 9'6" with espira doublepunch 4500 and 5500.
The 4500 I use .0011" braided line and dragsetting 10 (20.17 lb of drag force), while the 5500 I use .009" braided and dragsetting 9 (19.80 lb of drag force).
To both these I use any bass jig, all though the 1 oz I feel fits the best. Stop and go, twitching and lift and drop, they all work, and I do this with speed 2-3 depending on which dock Im standing on.

If you want longer fights and gain max amount of XP, the jigwinner 8'10" with a matching reel is another option. Or a casting setup which can handle 13 lb of drag force (or close to it).
It is possible to catch even with weaker setups, but then theres also a chance it drag all the line out and you lose your lure and fish.

*edit: Just noticed you wrote "lb", so changed it all from my kg to lb instead

Just wanna point out, frog poppers cost BC. Normal frogs don't, and they work excellent there as well. Just toss one into the lillies, and you'll most likely bring a bass back with it.

The 30 day challenge for Quanchkin, Louisiana will net you a frog popper.

Yeah, that's the only one I have. Every time I use it I'm scared.

A lot of people aren't willing to do the 30-days though. Myself, I think they're great.

Give the Yellow Glowing crank 3/0 6 or 8’ a try as well. Nailed a 14 lb LMB with it a few times. And always peak night time.
