Alligator gars and sturgeon make a comebackĪlthough the outlook for most giant fish remains grim, some species, like the air-breathing arapaima in South America, may be bucking the trend. So far, however, conservation efforts to protect endangered giant freshwater fish species are mostly regional. There are signs that interest in freshwater species is gaining momentum, including increasing calls to explicitly include freshwater ecosystems in the 30x30 initiative, a global effort to set aside 30% of land and sea area for conservation by 2030.

In the Mekong, where more giant fish species are found than in any other river, climate change is causing more severe droughts and disrupting the monsoon seasons that govern the river’s essential flood regime. Lesni Villa, Whitemoose Canada and San Joaquin is a good start for x-lures.This 646-pound Mekong giant catfish was caught in 2005. WickedViking should have a database of the 30 day challenge gear. Cmon Carp competition requires level 50 gear and ingredients to practice.Īlso, don't forget to do some of the 30 day challenges to pick up some over powered x-lures to help you farm in Kaniq and Saint Croix. Check YouTube for Krellic's videos on these competitions. Sturgeon In the Night, Extravaganza, and Steelhead Showdown. California has 3 fun competions to practice. I do the competition paths in San Joaquin to level up so I don't need to practice those competitions as much. Even the top elite teams and developers have problems with these prize carps. The massive topwaters require a level 62 rod and level 64 reel to be able to land the epic 50kg+ topwater carps. And yes, the top water carps in Germany can be massive and require at least a level 53 Majesty match rod to safely reel in. This kind of mix speeds carp spawning but does not render large sized carps like a feeder mix with particles would. There are old school mix work arounds at level 42, but it uses very expensive pellets groundbait along with a companion feeder mix. While you can hand cast short distances, it's inaccurate and might not be far enough to catch the larger carps. A large enough spod rocket unlocks at level 49 but you really should get the level 50 xl spod rocket. The particles you need unlock at levels 45 and 47. You won't have access to particles for quite some time. Level 42 is too low to access the groundbait ingredients and the spod set up that give you great top and bottom carp action.
