Tutorial missions will show you the best lures, baits, and soft plastics to use for each fish.
These information are different from Handbook, and in some instances seems to be incorrect. In other cases however, it seems to be more accurate than what you find in Handbook.
It takes me several hours to verify that the information provided is correct and force me to give in. The guide is still taking longer than I expected, and is still WiP.
Any tips or hints to improve the guide are welcome. Just test it a little, it is a good tip.

General tips and tricks about lures and baits
Floaters
You can catch any type of fish (, regardless of its size). Use the right floater bait and look into the water to find the fish. Next, cast the floater bait onto the fish and adjust by reeling. This is the fastest way to catch fish, but it won't usually be very large.
You need to pay more attention to the "bio" of the fish if you want to catch it. You should adjust the depth of your bait to suit the fish's behavior and choose the right size hook. Pay attention to the time of day as certain types of fish cannot be caught at night (. Yellow perch [damn stupid fish …] HTML17Y].
