Notes

Ambitious Lure affects fish that use the Powerful Hookset.png  Powerful Hookset. Ambitious Lure is used after you cast your line and can be used up to 3 times per cast, granting a stack each time.

Each time you use Ambitious Lure you increase the likelihood of a Powerful Hookset fish biting (decreasing the odds of an Precision Hookset fish biting). Once you use Ambitous Lure you cannot use Modest Lure.png  Modest Lure (and vice-versa).

Additionally, each use of Ambitious Lure grants a small chance to receive the following message: "You have a feeling your next cast will land a large-sized fish!"
When this message appears, the next fish to bite will be one that uses the Powerful Hookset. Using Ambitious Lure again after this message appears will remove the effect.

Some Dawntrail fish are "hidden" and require use of Ambitious Lure to be available to catch (for that attempt). As of Patch 7.1, these fish include:

Once the special message appears for these fish, it will remain available to catch this cast (even if the Ambitious Lure is used again).
