    Best solution is to not bother with collectible fishing. Way too much for something that is already a hassle.

    the only collectible worth fishing is sweatfish for everdeep aethersand. fishing just has too much rng to rely on it for scrip farming.

    IF anything focus on aether sand fish. Besides filling up the log or getting fish for gear it's not really worth it. With the exception of cooking ingredients of course.

    Yeah, don't even bother with collectible fishing outside of aethersand. Use Botanist and/or Miner to farm the scrips you need for Fisher.

    A lot of the RNG can be eliminated.

    You can with some spearfishing areas. They also said that a lot of it can be eliminated, not all of it. I assume they meant adjusting the RNG odds in your favour. E.g. Choosing specific baits at fishing holes when there are more than one option can greatly increase the chance of catching the fish you want.

    That said, I agree than MIN/BOT are superior for scrip farming for several reasons.
