Fishing Tourney 1

So does that mean overall you could be be catching twice as many fish or just twice as fast? Do you get 20 instead of 10? Sorry for not understanding.

It's twice as many fish. ^_^ So yes, instead of 10 it would be 20.

Wait how many fishes are you guys catching ? I only get to cast my rod 7 times, totalling 14 fishes.

It could be 7 I haven?t been counting. I thought it was around 10.
 
i didnt play all day so im kinda behind more than i should be in overall measurement goals.

Don't stress too much. I barely played at all yesterday and I'm already past silver. You should have plenty of time to finish by Monday.

Of course my own MOTHER finished in a day and a half...don't I feel lame! :D

I also counted 7 casts (or to the point, 7 sparkly fish shadows to catch). No golden rod, but two were doubles, so 9 fish total for this round.

I'm wondering if you "miss" any of these fish, does it simply respawn until you get 7 catches? Or would you be out of luck?

I’d like to know too, I hope you can always catch the top amount. I haven’t bought the golden rod and I’d be disappointed if I didn’t finish the size challenge because I missed fish and that could have been avoided by the golden rod.

I'm using a gold rod and I tried this for you guys. Basically if I don't miss a fish I should be casting my rod 7 times, which means catching 14 fish. When I missed a catch on purpose, I was still able to cast my rod 7 times and get the same 14 catch amount. So it must have re-spawned meaning there's no chances of catching less fish even when you miss. :}
 
Don't forget to talk to your visiting campers. Some might give you a fish for free.

Thank you. I think the advantage of the golden rod is that you reach the size goals more quickly.. With the normal rod if I play as often as I dean I should still reach the size goals within the time limit.

I've been playing my usual amount -- and not at all the day it started -- and I am about to max out all the size goals. The only thing I did differently was spend some extra time fishing at the beach to get all the challenges, including the free tourney nets which also helped. I haven't paid for the rod or any large tourney nets. With all the time left I bet you can do it!
 
I just reached the end measurement goal and I’m so disappointed in the “prize”. There’s gotta be more prizes right? I was expecting the foreground/background campsite terrains shown in one of the preview pics

After reaching the 6050 goal you can continue catching fish. There are more goals beyond which randomly reward one of the previously rewarded items.

Great! Thanks for testing this out for us!
 
i'm at 4k out of 6k for the event, im not using the gold fishing rod. i hope i will finish before event ends.
 
I have officially finished getting all the tourney fish I need. I have a gold trophy and all the prizes awarded by Chip. Still working on the side challenges but I'm glad I don't have to check if the special fish are there every few hours like a maniac anymore.

I finished the official tourney too and got the gold trophy etc but I’m still catching tourney fish each time to get prizes. I’m a sucker for a prize! It only takes a couple of minutes to catch them so I thought why not.
 
It ends in a couple hours.

I completed all the tasks and size goals. In addition to essences, nets, leaf tickets and a sparkle stone, I got:

4 seaweed screens
2 coral benches
2 of each type of aquarium
and 1 decorated coral.

I probably will never use any of it except the aquariums and the gold trophy that's going on the fireplace mantle in my RV.

Ended up getting a bronze trophy, of all the events, this one was the most fun so far, it takes a fair bit of skill to get it opposed to just luck.
