Fisher’s Intuition is a buff which is applied to a fisher when certain conditions are met, allowing you to catch certain fish. To trigger Fisher’s Intuition at a specific hole, you need to catch at least the required number of fish(es) for that specific buff. Each fish which requires Fisher’s Intuition catch has different conditions.
For example, Sea Butterfly has an Fisher’s Intuition requirement of catching 3x Scorpionfly and 3x Sky Faerie. Once a fisher catches these fish at the required number, they are given the Fisher’s Intuition buff, which will add Sea Butterfly to the potential fish they can catch.
Other examples include Armor Fish, which requires 6x Hedgemole Crickets. Warden of the Seven Hues requires 3 different types of fish, 3x Firelight Fish, 3x Indigo Prismfish and 5x green Prismfish.
The progress towards the buff’s application can be broken and reset doing certain actions. Other actions have no affect on the Fisher’s Intuition progress.
Actions which DO NOT reset progress:
– Moving around/stop being in the fishing “stance”
– Changing job
– Being Level Syncd
– Crafting
– Gathering from Botanist or Miner nodes
– Teleporting to Aetherytes in the zone of the hole
– Death, if respawning in the same zone as the hole.
Actions which WILL reset progress:
– Logging out/Disconnecting (server kicks count too)
– Leaving the zone
– Fishing in another fishing hole
– Death, if respawning in a zone other than the fishing hole

eyyyy, look who's back ^^ Time to get my fishing fix for the day!
A few bonus notes about Fishers Intuition once it's already applied!
– Once you get the buff, you can stop fishing and move around! The buff will remain for it's duration. Don't get frustrated with the "Fish sense something amiss…" message, thinking you lost your intuition chance on Stethcanthus or Warden of the Seven Hues!
– Changing your job will remove the Fisher's Intuition buff.
– Fishing in another fishing hole will remove the Fisher's Intuition buff.
– Death will remove the Fisher's Intuition buff.
This is the first time doing a mechanics guide for fishing, so please bear with the rough edges. Feedback and suggestions welcomed.
subbed keep up the good work
so if i catch 3 indigo prismfish and 3 firelight goldfish i can switch to a culinarian and cook food until green prismfish are avaliable without resetting progress towards the buff? i have seen people say you can't change jobs so i would like to know if thats true or not
edit: never mind i just got the buff after getting my 3 indigos during a violet prismfish window and i had caught my 3 firelight and greens like an hour before that so i took that time to make more food and pots but i was unable to catch him 3x so i will be trying again lol
One thing I've never heard information on: does spearfishing count as 'fishing at another fishing hole' for purposes of Intuition?
Thanks for the info, been wondering about doing crafting whilst waiting between Mora Tecta windows for Lancetfish but been too paranoid to try it out. Guess I know what I'm doing next time! 🙂
