PLEASE NOTE:

Update, March 20, Red 400 kg hok is now in Market (14 Pearls)
Hello everyone,
Regarding the replacement for lost Red 400 kg hook that is part of reward of Marline Hunting (3) quest:
The game team has stopped replacing the lost Red 400 kg hook (including to those who had recently sent in request for the hook. For players who have made the request and have not received the hook, please consider that the replacement hook is no longer available, sorry... )
This "replacement for the lost Red hook" was meant to help players who have completed Marline Hunting (3) quest and currently completing Catch Coelacanthiformes (1) & (2) quests, and despite their careful fishing they lost the hook and thus no way of completing these quests.
Unfortunately, we are increasingly getting requests for the hook that are outside of our original intentions, such as, asking for hooks for friends who have not even lost hooks, requesting the hook even before completing Marine Hunting (3) quest, or repeated requests even though already received hooks, etc., and also we see signs that this replacement offer is making players to be less careful with their fishing with this hook, as we see increasing number of repeated requests, with some are requesting the hook many times.
Thus, sadly, the game team has halted replacing of lost Red 400 kg hooks.
Possible future plan is in place for creating another series of quests that will include this hook as part of reward, though we do not have details yet.
Meantime, if you lose this hook, or already lost the hook and waiting for the replacement, or thinking of requesting for the replacement, you are out of luck, sorry.
For players who still have the hook, we recommend to fish very carefully, as no more replacement hook will be given away through this "replacement" service.
If you lost the hook and can not complete Catch Coelacanthiformes (1), (2) quests, we recommend setting these quests aside.
We are not providing services to remove these quests at this time, please do not send in requests to remove these quests. Thank you.
Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.

Getting them on the meat. Thanks for this

Regarding the hook...Is this not the same 400 pro hook that can be bought for 14 pearls? The specs are the same. Has anyone tried it? If it's the same, that would be a replacement option for those who have the pearls to do it. I held off buying that one when I saw the red hook was a reward for this. There's no 400 pro line but the line isn't going anywhere. If I ever get around to buying the hook, I will test and let you know, if no one else has. (Edit: Got my own answer by removing the hook a minute. IT is indeed the same 400 pro hook that is in the market, so there is a way to replace if player has the pearls. I was fortunate enough not to lose the hook )

I found them easy to catch on Mullet Bait. I got through the 1st quest in less than 15 minutes and got about half way through the 2nd one when a moment of inattention cost me my red hook. I figure I will complete the rest og my quests and then bite the bullet and pay the pearls for another hook.

I wish there was a way to restart the marlin hunting quests so i could earn another hook.
