new fishing mechanics

the new update bring a new fish and fishing mechanics, i havent tried them all but what i notice is different fish take a different bait

now the question
can you fish all of em using basic fishing bait(haldor)? i know that tuna have 100% chance if player use designed fishing bait for it, but what about the others? because it seem exhausting to craft spesific fishing bait for a side activity

Nope. Each zone/type of fish has it's own bait now. So, if you're like me, and enjoy (used to enjoy?) wandering around multiple zones fishing, you need to craft & drag all the assorted baits you might possibly need along your trip.

I like the new fishing system itself, tbh. But, yeah, it's not great when you have limited inventory, and need to carry 7-8 kinds of bait, and 20 kinds of fish. :\

Bait & fish bags would be a great addition to the game.....

I made a guide detailing which bait to use for which fish and in which biome they live in here:

There's others that show what you need to make each bait, but the bait is pretty self explanatory once you've collected enough trophy heads as they show up immediately in the cauldron.

Good luck and happy fishing!
