    Hmmm I forget the exact phraseology so would have to look back thru update notes a bit tomorrow but someone just said you can keep mobs out so guess that wasn't it

    Is it still worth getting LuShangs, or should I work towards Ebisu. Its been a while since I've played FFXI, returning player. Not sure whats best anymore.

    It's probably worthwhile to get a lu shang's first if this is your first character to get an ebisu. Getting the items needed for the ebisu could take a long time depending on your luck. In the interim, lu shang's can catch a lot of fish the other non-ebisu rods won't.

    If you've been away from FFXI for a while, I'd evaluate why you want to fish first though lol. If it's solely for profit, I'd rethink. If you are wanting to fish for a hobby or to supplement cooking, then it may still be ok.

    One thing that the new fishing system has done I believe is throw out the old leveling guides out the window. I don't believe huge gaps between your fishing level and the fish you are attempting to catch are feasible now, at least legitimately. The higher level fish would regen their health too much.

    Godspeed.

    Thysanopeltis - Sih Gates map 2 - shrimp lure - worm lure(better rate) - peeled crayfish NPC 80

    Zaldon doesn't take either. Going to look for the other fish

    THanks switchorz for that info.

    I'm really surprised zaldon didn't take the cameroceras since the developers specifically mentioned adding a legendary that could be used in inside the belly (see link below) and it appears to be the only legendary fish from the list of new items.

    Maybe zaldon will take it in a later update or they'll add another one(shrug)

    In the last few years they generally tell us if they are adding fish to Zaldon so shouldn't be that big of a surprise... they plan on doing it just when is anyones guess. Plus the link says "Implementation is still a bit off, but I'll let you know when there is more information! " so given that was a couple weeks ago I'd say we got waiting to do

    Turris entrance

    translucent salpa - insect ball NPC 115
    ra'kaznar shellfish - sabiki rig NPC 134
    bonefish - robber rig NPC 240
    white lobster - shrimp lure NPC 137

    other baits/lures catch these but I am lazy and just put whatever caught them first. Zaldon still hates you.

    three were mentioned in another thread but trans was missing.

    Has any testing been done with Drill Calamary or Dwarf Pugil as bait in any of the newly available fishing areas?

    All the fish seem to have been fished up via regular bait, don't see any need to try those.

    Shiiiitt, I've been waiting for new guttable fish since they first introduced new fishes in SoA (remora, etc). Although they said all this back in March 2014, they updated us months later (in your link). I expect maybe 1-3 more patch updates before they make any additional fish guttable.

    Can only hope

    Is there much money to be made in fishing anymore? Ever since the Haks nerf I've kinda just abandoned it.
    This is excluding Matsya I guess since they aren't a reliable gil maker and require a crafter buying a ton.

    And Matsya require crafters to be willing to pay often higher prices then they go for since it takes so much time to farm for them. I don't see any money in it really. Especially since there are things just as easy to bot for more gil than fishing was when it was good

    That's what I figured I was hoping something new had come up, but I guess not. Oh well! Thanks!

    Just a silly question. Anyone gone fishing in the water just before the spot for the Hades fight- and if so, pull anything up?
