Nothing wrong with Haks, can still catch them normally. And as expected, they give skill ups post 100.

Most legendary fish should be over level 100... technically.

Maybe try lik? I'm sure that would work.

Davoi... hmmm isn't that the only fish that isn't legendary that is level 100?

I don't think that would work :(

I got 0.4 out of 65 catches while fishing Gugs, not so bad for being level 100.

Ah well if an ebisu fish is only giving 1 out of 65 (probably 1 out of 50 on average) then Abaia would probably be 1 out of 75'ish.

Plenty of people

I once was looking for buyers and someone sent me a tell asking if I could fish gugs over the next week so he could buy them. Turns out he picked up opal silk from mog bonanza and has level 20 fishing. So the week is over and he starts buying my fish...

first fish, I swear to you he got shoot on his first fish.

1/0 and 1/1... Only way to get better than that is to win ebisu in mog bonanza.

I was left with a ton of gug's that I had to send to my mule to sell over the course of a few weeks, I was pissed! Happy for the guy but pissed lol.

I'm sure plenty of people have; I'm only 5,000/10,000 on moats and I'm well on my way to getting my Ebisu. I've always believed Ebisu is "easier" to get than a Lu (via the Lu quest). Assuming you don't have crappy luck with Ebisu trades that is.

Well, maybe I should state it's "easier" if you calculate it as time = difficulty.

I personally was thinking what the average would be for all players who obtain ebisu, where would that line be and how would that compare to the difficulty of lu shang (if you never buy a single fish).

Considering the investment put in, the average rate people get opal and shoot, the amount of fish you put towards your catch count of the day I say lu wins for being more difficult.

I would definitely say that Lu is more difficult and can be more time consuming. You can easily find people who will sell you gugs and liks on any given server, assuming you have the gil to pay it, but moats are generally either bought up or none in stock.
Of course you have the people who are just super lucky with ebisu items, which I scowl at, and on the other end you have people that are still 0/3000+.

Happy to be 1/17 liks, 1/253 gugs for main and 1/96 liks, 1/252 gugs on mule(level 70, 68k gp).

I consider the average to be 250-300 per fish, if you're under that you got lucky. If you're under 50 you should have to drop it and do it again D:!

I seemed to hit a mini-fatigue around 60 pisces last night. Didn't hook anything for about 20 casts. I kept at it because I knew I'd only been fishing for a short time. It passed but I kept getting spats of 10-15 no-catches.
