VANA'DIEL FISHING ACCORDING TO AALEA SKYFALL

QUICK FISHING GUIDE

This is a quick guide that I used mainly when fishing for Guild Points.

Fish is the name of the fish.
Cap is the highest level for each fish. Below the cap you can still gain skillups.
Skill Rank is based on LV1-10, 11-20 etc.
Water denotes what type of water you may catch the fish in.
Size tells you if the fish is small (!) or large (!!!).
Slot shows how many fish you can store in an inventory slot. 1 = unstackable, 12 = stackable.
Total GP is the total Guild Points you can earn for each real life day.
GP is the value in Guild Points for each fish.
Pcs is the number of fish to turn in to reach Total GP. To reach the exact number, divide Total GP with GP.
Bait displays confirmed bait for each fish. Still working on this.
Location displays confirmed locations for each fish. Still working on this.
Stamina shows an estimate of each fish's stamina based on my current fishing level (96-100).
• TW = Too Weak. Next to no stamina and/or rod movement.
• EP = Easy Prey. Some stamina, little rod movement.
• EM = Even Match. Some stamina, some rod movement.
• T = Tough. Lots of stamina, some rod movement.
• VT = Very Tough. Lots of stamina, lots of rod movement.
• IT = Incredibly Tough. Lots of stamina, rod all over the place. Ryugu Titan ; ;
There's also a scale from 1-9 to rank the weight-class for each fish (whenever available). Some of the 8-9 can break your Lu Shang.

Information was gathered from FFXI Mystery Tour, Kida's Fishing Database and Clan Wind Fishing Database

CONFIRMED BY FISHING EXPEDITION

I will be performing a number of fishing expeditions in the coming months, mostly because I like fishing in different areas. The purpose is to populate the table below with all possible catches. On my first trips I will be bringing lures, and each lure is used 15-20 casts. This will confirm the most common fish in the area. As they are confirmed I will enter information in the table below. If you are on Quetzalcoatl and want to join me for these trips, let me know!
