Yeah - we know that since the preliminary patch details :)

there are 112 big fish, so you dont need to catch them all

Yes you do because many of them cannot be caught without the new ironworks magitek rod, Nepto Dragon in particular and maybe a couple others. The supra + Foragers vest and extra melds is not enough to catch.

I actually have 409 gathering without the ironworks rod, I'll let you know, if I'm unable to catch anyhthing

and you missed the point, I just corrected the statement, that there are "only 106 big fish and all 106 need to be chaught for the rod"
some people complained, that the rod is pointless, since you can get it "only after doing all the work and catching all big fish"

from what I have summariased from the fishing database site

glad, that makes obtaining the lvl 80 rod way easier

Cape Westwind - Pirate's Bane

Requires 6 wahoo to get the Fisher's Intuition (2 minutes) buff. Pray your 6th Wahoo is a HQ so you can mooch immediately or you only have 2 mins to get a HQ Goby.

359 gathering was too low. Caught with 373.

I caught mine at 12pm in clear weather so I don't think it has any time or weather restrictions.

*EDIT*

You can still catch the fish as long as you cast you line while still having the buff. The buff faded for me just after I cast the line and the Pirate's Bane still bit.

Rhotano Sea (Forecastle) - The Old Man in the Sea

Bites when the weather goes from Rain/Showers to Clear Skies. I can confirm the Showers -> Clear weather transition. FF14anger lists the Rain -> Clear weather transition.

383 Gathering was insufficient. :mad:

Got bites at 4pm and 7pm.
