&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Fishing Bait&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a Tool used for [[Ice Fishing]] in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Long Dark&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. It released in the free update of Part 3: Frontier Comforts for the [[Tales from the Far Territory]] expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
Bait is not necessary to catch fish, but can be used when fishing to increase the weight of fish caught by Ice Fishing by 50%. Bait is harvested from any raw fish, and yields a number of units per kg of fish which was harvested. When fishing manually with [[Fishing Tackle]] or with [[Fishing Tip-Up|Fishing Tip-Ups]], Bait may be selected (as can [[Fishing Lure (Acorns)|Fishing Lures]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Using Bait increases the weight (minimum and maximum) of caught fish by 50%.&lt;br /&gt;
* Bait is consumed each time a fish is caught, or when the fishing line breaks&lt;br /&gt;
* Bait is harvested from raw (not cooked) fish, regardless of species&lt;br /&gt;
* Harvesting bait always takes 30 minutes, regardless of fish weight/species&lt;br /&gt;
* Harvested fish produce 3-14 pieces of bait based on weight (3 Bait per kilogram of fish, rounded down. With breakpoints at X.00kg, X.35kg and X.70kg)&lt;br /&gt;
* Bait [[Scent|Smells]] and will attract [[Wolf|predatory wildlife]] (despite not displaying on the Scent Indicator, currently a bug).&lt;br /&gt;
* Bait decays over time and cannot be used once ruined. Raw fish will always yield 100% condition bait when harvested (even if the fish is 0% condition &amp;quot;ruined&amp;quot;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whitefish/Trout weigh significantly less than Coho Salmon/Smallmouth Bass, but give double the [[Scurvy|Vitamin-C]] per kg. This makes it more efficient for Vitamin-C and time to harvest larger &amp;#039;uncommon&amp;#039; fish (Coho Salmon/Smallmouth Bass). Rare Fish (goldeye, burbot, etc.) do not yield any Vitamin-C, but can be difficult to acquire. If fishing for calories, then whitefish, trout, or goldeye should be harvested.&lt;br /&gt;
