There's no adventure in XI, are you nuts?
Edit: Cruor -> Gil if you'll be exping a bunch.

I'm not exping until Sav's account is reactivated and transferred. I'm just doing crafting and fishing until then.
Edit: Oh, and 28.8 fishing right now. Soooo slow.

Yes, you could make millions upon millions more during the time it would take you to fish 10,000 moat carp. I personally did it because it was a cool achievement, one of the first achievements of many in the road of fishing.
Personally making an ebisu for dameion so I have someone to fish with D: and so I can sell my old lu shang too /o/ Also working on signboard atm.

My /flist is pretty bare these days. I'll get the ring eventually. I managed to get a fish off the AH that hadn't already been entered for the one ending in 4 days. (2 out of the 3 had been entered)

I keep getting people trying to MPK me in Qufim though which is a pain, I don't know why people hate fishers so much :/
o.0 how are you getting 200 soles in 5 hours? I remember when I was skilling on soles, it would take me about 8 hours to get 200 of them. Maybe they changed the biterate or something :<? Then again, I always have horrible luck and when I decide to fish it's magically 50% moon.

I personally did it with 1 rod w/o ww. It all depends on how often you want to be pulled away from fishing to go fix your rods.

They must have changed the bite rate. Like when they added critical bites and stuff.

I personally lvl'd woodworking on my brothers account just for fishing those damn fish :< Had two lu shangs but they broke so often (bad luck I guess) and the number one thing I hate in this game is running around.
Ofc after I got high enough woodworking to fix them, I got both items the same day.

This isn't a discussion about botting. If you have a problem, do a search for Jaerik's post about not talking about them.

So you hakuryu fishers, how's your guys line break rates been? for a while now I've been clocking it in around 40% line break rate using regular minnows (obv. higher than the 30% on wiki). It's kind of frustrating..
coupled with a 50% increase in the price of alexandrite, my mythic dreams are being crushed ;; less gil and higher prices~ sounds like the last 40 years of american society~
There are fishing topics that come up now and then but mainly are asking a question for a single answer. I know there are many fishers that visit these forums so this is an attempt to get people involved and have a little fun discussing one and only one thing, fishing!
I know Blue Gartr has a Fishing topic already, but I would like to see this community get involved a little bit and talk, since not everyone visits BG. I would love to have a topic just for fishers including veteran fishers, casual fishers, and even players just starting out and want to ask a few questions without being embarrassed about starting a whole topic for a simple answer they could not find.
I only ask that you keep any bot talk to a minimum, preferably none. [Moderator edit: No bot talk] I want this to be a place where we can discuss anything from GP items of the day to what lure/bait to use or what area is best. A quick mention of how you're doing on the lu shang/ebisu quest, how you're doing getting your fishing items from Grounds of Valor, that item you're saving your GP up for, or how much you wish you could hurt Zaldon for not finding anything in your fish for the 10,000th time. Your lucky moment streaks and the moments when you have nothing come your way and question why you started fishing in the first place. Anything that comes to mind, think of it as the random thoughts thread for fishing.
I will list a few resources that I find to be useful when it comes to fishing: BG Fishing Topic
Great Blue (Amazing Site <3, is out dated since 2008 but an amazing resource regardless)
Final Fishing (Another great resource with one of the most in-depth guides made. Out of date though.)
Fish Size Chart [ GE][ Wikia]
Chenon Diary (The site seems to be down for good though, it was a site made for Fish Ranking)
I shall add more if people provide good resources.
