it's not really the weather. it takes a while to get into a rythm fishing, but after you do it does become alot easier.

Fishing in this game sucks so far but I think the weather has something to do with the problem I was having because soon as it stopped raining I started catching more regularly.

Ahhh chucks!

You have 2500 points every time you get a fish you lose 5points and you get 100point every few hours Do the math you hit fishing surplus that what am guessing.

Here's a tip:

Midge Baskets + Camp Brittlebark ponds (Mor Dhona).

You're welcome.

Because your fishing is five levels higher than your botany must mean fishing is super easy!!!
Really, lets not talk about how challenging FFXIV is. Unless you really want to.

It's not very high because I'm lazy, but considering you don't even need to move to get from 1 to 50 faster than most classes, yep.

I haven't fished in over a week, I'm sure if I had surplus It would have reset.

Can I buy midge baskets anywhere?

They drop really fast from puks. An hour of puk grinding would probably give you several hundred.

Edit: I got most of mine from Cellar Puks in Nanawa. There might be better drop rates from other puks.

I fish for 1hour and hit surplus lol once you reach 1k points you get less and less fish so you get that Message. That or you don't know how to really fish and you doing something wrong and you get that message when i first start fishing i had the same problem too i found out to win in that dumb fishing game.

Ok then let me put it this way, I know how to fish, and this leve was the first fishing I've done in two weeks. The game's fishing mechanics suck and I know how to work with them to find the "sweet spot" but its kind of hard when no fish are biting....you get it now?

OK thanks. I've used Midge Baskets before in Thanalan and they're great but I just didn't know where to get more of them.

Only time I do fishing is when we do our Drunk Fishing event in the shell every other week.

like Rijain said::

Midge Baskets (also Rat Tails) and the Mor Dhona area = Win!

Went from 1-20 doing fishing here drunk hahahaha! XD

Good luck with the fishing, its actually pretty fun... or maybe its all the alcohol making it fun. ROFL
