Bait Tips

Does bait stack with rod luck?

Yes! Bait luck bonuses are additive with your rod's luck stat. Using a high-luck rod with premium bait is the best way to target mythical and exotic catches.

What is the best all-purpose bait?

For general fishing, Shrimp offers a solid balance of luck and lure speed bonuses at a reasonable cost. For serious rare hunting, Squid or Cricket provide much higher luck bonuses.

Are negative luck bonuses always bad?

Trash-tier baits like Garbage have negative luck, meaning you'll mostly catch junk. However, some players use them for trash item collection achievements. For regular fishing, always use at least Common-tier bait.
