Not true. You can vendor trash fish for profit if you fish at a high level area with a lure. It just takes hours to make 1-2k that way. Assuming you have to repair your gear, it's probably something like 600-800 gil every hour and a half, since you can't use lures for sky/dunefishing. Could probably look around and try to find better fish to catch and sell, but it's pretty moot.
