(His avatar name was jiffyjake). Is there someway that you could separate the bait so that the freshwater bait has two categories (lake bait or river bait)? Or alternatively make it so I can choose to hire according to different fishing categories (lake, ocean, river)? The bait option would be better.

Thank you for your consideration of this issue. Love the upgrades!

I agree. I totally appreciate and love the bait and it will help alleviate the constant salmon shortage. I discovered today as I was fishing with glee, however, that I can't just store up the freshwater bait to only use for my big lake (the only body of water I have with salmon). If I have more bait and continue to fish my other ponds, rivers, etc, it will use whatever bait I have left. I get plenty of the other types of fish, so I don't really want to waste my bait on those bodies of water. I decided that for now the only way to really get around it for now is to only store 1 freshwater fish bait out of my gift box right before fishing my big lake. If I leave the rest in the giftbox until I need it, it won't get wasted.

Now, if the devs want to find a solution that doesn't require me storing the bait in my giftbox, I certainly wouldn't complain.
