Fish....i guess you can..................desynth it? IDK

Pretty much, which is easier since they reworked the desynth system, (which I am eternally grateful for, because it was going to take me weeks of grinding or a lot of gil to finally bridge that gap to be able to desynth HW fish). Some of the script fish sell on the market for a decent price, so I imagine that some of them have a crafting use. As is right now though, most of the high level fish are worthless beyond being fodder for desynthing, whether they're types of fish that can be turned in for scripts or not. If you collect a fish that isn't good enough to turn in, and isn't worth much on the MB, then desynth it or if all else fails, sell it to NPC vendors.....
