Heavensward Fishing Finds!

I'm warning you guys, don't buy the Fishing tomes just yet. They don't work and you'll just end up sad.

Hey everyone, I'm having an issue and trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Level 57 fsh, trying to discover some of the hellfishing spots. I'm in what I believe are the right spots according to garland tools database but getting message "You can sense something swimming below, but are uncertain how to go about catching it" and no cast option anywhere I've tried standing. As I write this I'm at 10, 7 right next to dragon npc that sends you to churning mists. Thanks

I'm guessing you don't have the hellfishing trait. I think it comes from one of the fishing quests. Starts at the fisherman's guild in Limsa and continues in the forgotten knight in the foundation.

Unless you are trying at halo which I think requires Gulleye V (level 60).

Thanks, that would be it. Didnt even consider going back to LL to check for quests.

Hundred fin - lv 56 levequest - Weston Waters, Churning Mists. After midnight under clear skies, a goblin jig appears to catch them almost exclusively until the Weston Bowfin window opens at 8am. If other baits work, I haven't figured them out yet.

Dravinian Hinterlands: Quickspell Delta (pretty much all the shallow marsh out of the second Idylshire entrance)

Blueclaw shrimp, Hedgemole Crickets and Bullfrogs mooch into Yalm Lobster (lv 58 levequest), Orn Butterfly (have seen it as a GC turn-in) and Tigerfish (use unknown), in no particular order. Did not discern any time or weather restrictions, had it change from sun to rain while I was there, daylight the whole time.

Fishing folklore books work despite the text bug when you use it. No new fish are added to the guide because they are already in the guide. You just need to find them in existing holes and when you fish them up they will have a tag in your log that they are from the folklore book

Caught Lavalord from Halo in the Forelands with fish eyes. Mooched from HQ granite crabs. Lavalord's tag in the fish guide says he is from the book of Dravanian folklore

Noticed today that it seems that all fishing holes which contain Reducible items are marked with a unique symbol in the fishing log. It has a fish with some "sparkle" around it.
