List of Usefull Fish

[SeraviEdalborez]

I'm super confused how one even begins to know where to start fishing at Lv.50. I grab the first two leves in Ishgard but they don't even tell you were the fishing spots are unlike the BTN and MIN leves. Does SE expect this to just be some sort of crowd sourced community effort like threads such as these?

MIN and BTN 50 start in Coerthas Western Highlands, that's more or less the hint. The general rule of thumb: visit an aether and check tools. If you can equip their bait, go looking for fish.

This seems like a good thread to ask rather than make a new one: what's the equivalent of ephemeral nodes for fishing? Ephemeral nodes make getting Fire, Earth, Lightning and Wind crystals hilariously easy and I assume fishing has something for Ice and Water, but I haven't started to level it for HW yet.
