Trust me, if I could do Ocean Fishing more, I would.
With all due respect:
You can ocean fish solo. You only have to be there when it opens (every 2 hours) and queue up. 15 minutes after the hour (for example: 20:15) it will pop and send you to your ship even if you are solo.

EDIT:
I just tested it btw
