Anyone have any tips for Abaia, want some plumb boots, but so far bite rate has been terrible with trout balls, any better bait to use?
Minnows are also a suggested bait like trout balls

Finally got both items this week! Getting my ebisu after the next conquest tally!

As far as Abaia go on thing says pond other says lake which is it that you should fish at? Also is there a specific spot you should fish from at them?
Is there a fish besides hakurya that NPC well and can use lu shangs without 2 much fear it will break? Just started fishing moat carps for the pole and want to see if it would still make me decent gil without all the work it would take to do haku....

2mil a day if you're fishing for almost 24hrs. In that case, you'd have to bot. Which we all know is bad. There are two other fish that NPC for the same amount as Haks, but they're found in Abyssea; Kokuryu and Soryu. They'll give you the same trouble as Haks will so there really isn't any benefit to fishing for those instead.

Dont they have a higher Bite rate than Haks?
I noticed a decent bite rate with seikiryu. Only issue I had was agro from mobs, elemental, & NM. Wasn't paying attn & agro'd while recasting sneak. another time a cleave agro'd NM & it path'd back to my pos. I haven't done enough kokuryu or soryu to talk about their bite rates.
If you can find a buyer, Abaia, Gugrusaurus, Lik, & Matsya are all good to fish...depending on the going price.

NPC wise the highest amount of gil you would make with a Lu would be Armored Pisces at like 980g each or something like that. Otherwise you pretty much have to use another craft like cooking to increase your profits and make sushi, it's back in high demand again thanks to Delve. (Or if you so happen to have 96+ Bonecraft you can do Trumpet Shells like it's 2009 all over again)
tl;dr A Lu isn't even worth it if you're seriously fishing 10k Moats for it. Farm plasm and sell Airlixirs, buy Liks and Gugs and make an Ebisu. You can get to level 99 fishing using just a Halcyon and Composite rod.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should...
And... Yeah, well, ya'know that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I'm telling the guy he can skip getting a Lu Shangs and go straight to an Ebisu, the *** is your problem?

It's pretty easy to get to 78 skill without a Lu's. I'd advise going that route unless you really want a Testimony.
I totally understand wanting to own a testimony though... one of the coolest KI in the game lol

I wish!
I know this isn't needed but whatever, mule just 1/51 on saber shoot now liks ; ;.
But for my mule i got her to 70 already and anyone new to fishing, should take the same path i did took less then a month and she will be 100.
1-10 moat carp, wesr ron, knight well pong
10-20 nebitmonite, SSG
20-50 shall shells buburimu peninsula
50-86 grimmonites and merc's nashmau
86-96 black soles port jeuno
96-99 pteygotus nashmau,
then your choice from there!

Here's what I did on my mule without a Lu Shang's, I think this would actually go quicker. Talacca Cove with a Halcyon is actually a LOT better than using a Lu, all the line snaps and lost catches don't count to your 200 fish cap but you can still skill up on them. I would get 4 levels a day there.
0 to mid 20s Qufim - Tiger Cod & Nosteau Herring
20s to mid 40s Qufim - Cone Calamary & Bluetail (cancel squids)
40s to 55 Buburimu - Bluetail
55 to 86 Talacca Cove - Mercs & Dil, cancel Ahtapots and use Crayfish Paste
86 to 99 or whenever you get Ebisu done - Nashmau Pterygotus

I found my way easier straightly because nothing but litres and rigs the whole time except for most carps
woohoo!!! got my silk after 100 and my shoot on the THIRD ahahaha *** you zaldon
So I was looking at all the new items over on BG and saw a new bait that is exclusive. I'm wondering if this bait will work like Dwarf Pugils. I don't know how I feel about this, as it seems every few months they bring out new items and new gear to too keep us interested like dangling a carrot on string in front of my face.

Any new SoA small/stack fish that beat out dils/mic's for npc? Not playing atm but if I come back might need some Gil source
Currently I'm 107.1 +5 Fishing Skill, been having a hard time getting skills since i hit 106.7. Is there a fish anyone would suggest for capping 110 on. Originally was fishing up shen til about 105 than after I didn't seem to get any skills in a week on him. Been jumping around since trying new ones but having no luck :(
Stick with haks or cave cherax. Skill ups suck *** at those levels. Just gotta wait it out.
Thank you for the advice, I'll give it a try

I'm assuming you have an Ebisu, so just cap on Hakuryu. It's slower than other choices but at 1.5mil a day who cares.
I do have Ebisu, had since about lv.95 fishing. There are fast ways to skill on fishing? I've always found it slow but enjoy it. As for gil aspect i have to much atm with nothing to spend on :(
