so i thought i'd try and fish for titanictus because i could use them to skill fishing and bone craft, so far tried meatballs and rogue rig without much luck...

So you can't catch them on pirates aparently? that'd be my problem atm if so...

I just started fishing for Matsya, where am i supposed to fish these exactly, i know in Vunkel (S) on the East bridges but i keep hearing people saying take a mule or go BSt or SMN to deal with the mobs that pop on the bridge. The bridge i went to had no mobs on it at any point at all, also went 1/20 on Matsya/Bait. i guess this is about right?

There are no mobs on the bridge, you fish up the mobs and hold them.

So once they are up you cant fish them up again?

Mobs will pop if you catch them while fishing, you can just use sneak to avoid the aggro.

when they say dealing with mobs they mean the monsters you can fish up, if you can catch and hold all 5 mobs then you are not going to waste bait on monsters. Items dont take bait if they are caught.
Only thing that will consume bait are jellyfish and matsya.
Think i catch about 10matsya about every 30-40bait, was some time agot i last did, got a bit frustrated of it.

It's not about aggro, you fish them up so that your bait isn't wasted on mobs and has a chance to catch more Matsya and not mobs:P

Awesome thread! Looking at getting Ebisu Rod so leveling fishing for the first time in over 6 years.

Fishing Level.............: 47.3
Guild Points..............: 0
Gugrusaurus / Saber Shoot.: 1/27 *DONE*
Lik / Opal Silk...........: 1/47 *DONE*

Oh and I did get Fisher's Torque..Now the task of fishing and GPing! Where is best to go? I have seen a few ideas like:
"Shall Shells on the dunes beach until 55, then Nashmau for mercanbaligi/ahtapot. When ahtapot cap you can switch to a sinking minnow for pterygotus. Stay in Nashmau until at least 92."
and
"shall shells at buburimu beach til 52 then fish black sole til 96 on qufim island shore."

But what would you all suggest?

Goddamnit.

Look, minnows only catch haks if you craft them yourself. The ones at the guild don't work.

Grats on obtaining your ever-shrinking share of a pretty small pie.

Nashmau if you want to spend less time fishing each day to hit cap.

Sole if you want a higher gil total each day.

I haven't done Nashmau under level 50 so I don't know how the skillups are, but I do know that shall shells give you a hell of a lot of them. I would average 4 skill ups a day on those things without the skill up ring.

If you're not supposed to post, don't.

If you post accidentally, delete it.

If you want attention, congratulations, you look crazy.

I'm liking the fact that with Sardine Balls, I'm not raging over lost minnows if my line breaks 4-5 times in a row. Just fish the sardines up on a mule not to mess with that 200/day cap. 10 stacks of bait a day seems to be enough.

I spend an entire day's fishing allotment on sardines, ends up being close to 25 stacks of sardines. That ends up lasting me about a 6 days on haks. Rinse and repeat.

Now to camp the AH for earth crystals, or go to sky and farm clusters.
