Greever, since you have ebisu and you're above level 90 you should really try out Hakuryu.

Your skillups might not be outstanding but you'll be making a lot of gil although Dameion went from 90-93 in a few hours fishing them.

10.5k each fish NPC price.

Use sinking minnows /o/ 30-35 should be enough for 4-6 hours. Expect 1.5 fish per lure really and maybe reeling in ~10 an hour. If you can sell Lik/Gugs fast to a buyer then that would beat Hakuryu, but when you don't Hakuryu is a great source of gil.

You can trust the information on this page, I gathered it myself

well...after frustratingly trying to catch gugru's...i havent even landed 1 catch. Im assuming that is because i dont have the stamina rings.

will i be able to catch hak's w/o the rings...cause looking through wiki it seems that ill have to do alot of ***just to get those rings

I would just buy them, if you don't want to spend the time getting them, you'd make the money back pretty fast
2-3 days would make the gil back, and that's just casually fishing.

There are 4 boats, two from mhaura to alzabi and then two from selbina to mhaura. Each of them have their own supply (I think :x) so if one is out the others should still have some.

I could be wrong tho D:

I am not looking forward to getting the Ebisu items -_- Levelling woodworking specifically for the task. At least I don't need those annoying rings.

I know wiki says that anyone can participate, but I'd rather be sure before I spend extra time getting a second fish for my bf... it doesn't matter what skill level you are, anyone can participate in fish ranking?

Thought you had to be novice, but I'm not really sure.

How long does it usually take to reel in a Gugrusaurus for you guys that have an Ebisu rod? I'm here struggling with my Lu Shang rod and Albatross ring, while this guy here can reel it in 10-15s with no rings...

I actually tried gugru's for the firs time today with my ebisu (i never fished them before with my lu's)with no rings, and couldent even pull up 1 w/o any rings.

Im lvl 97 with +3 skill in gear (i always forget to switch out my crimson legs lol).

Bah he's only 16. I'll just give him a crappy fish to try out, I guess.

edit- gave him a crappy weight to turn in and he was able to at 16 fishing... looks like more time in the tree for meh

Depends if it decides to be an ***. I pulled in 2 today with 1 getting away. That was during a pirate attack though, since I was going after Ryugu.

Will try them out on the WG boat later.
