Why I made this guidebook
Over the past month I have been putting together a spreadsheet with as much information about ocean fishing that I could find. I noticed a lot of other guides or fishers had misinformation about how ocean fishing worked, specifically they were struggling to get 10k points for the mount. What I discovered was a lack of accurate, up-to-date, and explicit information on how to consistently get points or complete objectives. I've been working hard to consolidate as much of this data as possible, as well as highlight what is important for getting a high score. Most of this data I've been rechecking or populating myself personally; as such, there are a few records that I still have yet to fully test and confirm (looking at you rare Rhotano weathers...)
In short, my main goal here is to spread helpful, useful, and accurate information on how to get points while ocean fishing so that more people get to enjoy riding a giant shark mount!
Some quick important ocean fishing tidbits
Big shout out to the fishing discord for the original spreadsheet with ocean fishing data. Also shout out to all the other fishers I've encountered in game that have helped talk strategies and discussed data points.

Some quick important ocean fishing tidbits
- Use a Cast macro that counts for you. Simply put, this is a macro counts seconds automatically while you wait for a fish to bite. These are extremely important for knowing what fish just bit your hook, so that you can Double Hook the right fish every time. I put the one I have been using for ocean fishing under the Useful Macros section of my guidebook.
- Most fishers know the bait used to catch spectral fish. However, during a spectral current, the bait you want to use changes based on the time of day. Each location has fish that can only be caught during spectral, with only one bait type, and only during a specific time of day. These fish net you the most possible points, anywhere from 400 to 1776 points per Double Hook!
- Each location's spectral current has an intuition fish that you can only catch during a specific time of day as well as requiring a different type of bait than the normal three. You can purchase most of these baits at the Limsa Lominsa merchant (x6, y12). Catching these fish give a huge boost to your score: at least 500 points and a +20% multiplier. See the FAQ section for more information.
