ALL Fishing Rods & Hard Fishing Spots

The following video is a montage showing you how to get ALL the fishing rods and the hard fishing spots so you can complete the 'Hope County Master Angler' Trophy. In total there are four fishing rods and you can view them and their requirements at every shop in the game by looking under 'Weapons'. Before you begin it is advised that you unlock the perk 'Fisher King' for 4 Perk points as this will be needed for Rod #3 and #4.

4) Old Betsy Fishing Rod

Beat each region's records at 'Hard' Fishing Spots. Equip the third rod to increase the odds of catching bigger fish. There's a fishing board in every region's headquarters (Fall's End, Hope County Jail, Wolf's Den). On the board it shows the weight of the fish you need to catch. This can only be done at fishing spots that say 'Hard' on the map. The weight of the fish you catch is random.
