Where can I find the best spot for the Survivalist Challenge 7?

Survivalist Challenge 7 in Red Dead Redemption 2 requires you to catch one of each type of small fish in the game. This includes the Bluegill, Bullhead Catfish, Chain Pickerel, Perch, and Rock Bass. To complete this challenge efficiently, you need to know the best fishing spots for each fish type and understand the game mechanics involved in catching them.\n\nFirst, you need to acquire a fishing rod. This is unlocked during the mission ''A Fisher of Men'' in Chapter 2, where you take Jack fishing. Once you have the rod, you can start fishing anywhere in the game world. However, certain locations are more reliable for specific fish types. For example, the Bluegill is commonly found in the Dakota River near Horseshoe Overlook, while the Bullhead Catfish can be caught in the swampy areas near Lagras.\n\nTo catch the Chain Pickerel, head to the Kamassa River near Rhodes. This fish prefers flowing water, so casting your line near the riverbanks will yield the best results. For Perch, the best spot is O''Creagh''s Run, a small lake northeast of Emerald Ranch. The Rock Bass, on the other hand, can be found in the Dakota River as well, but closer to the Cumberland Forest area.\n\nWhen fishing, use the correct bait to increase your chances of catching the desired fish. For small fish like Bluegill and Perch, use bread or cheese as bait. For Bullhead Catfish and Rock Bass, use worms or crickets. The Chain Pickerel prefers live bait, so use a worm or a small fish as bait. Pay attention to the fish''s behavior when it bites; a quick tug on the line indicates a small fish, while a stronger pull suggests a larger one.\n\nOne common challenge players face is the fish not biting. If this happens, try moving to a different spot along the river or lake. Fish are more active during certain times of the day, so experiment with fishing at dawn, dusk, or night. Additionally, ensure you are using the correct bait and casting your line in the right area. If you are still having trouble, consider upgrading your fishing rod and reel to improve your chances.\n\nFinally, here are some practical tips to make this challenge easier. Always carry a variety of bait to avoid running out. Use Eagle Eye to spot fish in the water, which helps you target the right areas. Be patient and persistent, as some fish may take longer to bite. Once you catch all five types of small fish, the challenge will be complete, and you can move on to the next Survivalist Challenge.\n\nIn summary, the best spots for Survivalist Challenge 7 are the Dakota River for Bluegill and Rock Bass, the Kamassa River for Chain Pickerel, O''Creagh''s Run for Perch, and the swamps near Lagras for Bullhead Catfish. Use the correct bait, fish at optimal times, and upgrade your gear to improve your chances of success.
