Lures seem to have a higher rate of being lost if you fail to reel in the fish since the patch. For now, i don't seem to loose them unless i hit that first stage of fatigue at 150 reel ins, so i just call it quits fishing at that point.
Since this seems like normal level-up fishing though, I would just expect that you'll loose like 50% more lures than normal and pack accordingly

Thanks for the reply Truvy, so after 150 reel ins we start losing 50% of the actual fish rate?

Not sure what the rate is, as its not really a hard set loss...the Dev's said that after 150 sucessful gathers you'll begin the Fatigue and gather attempts will keep getting more difficult. Not sure it starts out at 50% harder or not, but it does seem to hit about that hard, and just gets harder.

I don't have hard numbers, but here are a few observations I made awhile back. When first entering a new grade/tier of water you should expect to lose alot more lures. The closer you get to optimal ranking for that grade the less you will obviously lose. Once you get around 5-10 ranks above the highest rank fish in that area you should be seeing lost lures much more rarely. At 50 I lose a couple lures a week now, max. When you his the the lame gathering fatigue wall you will start to lose more lures also. The deeper in it you get the higher the chance to lose lures. If your personal rank is not equal or greater to the lures you are using, the same thing. Expect to be losing more lures. I hope this can help you to not lose as many lures as I used to lol. I use to go through Wildfowls like pieces of penny gum  Edited by user Sunday, April 24, 2011 4:16:13 PM(UTC)
