This guide shows you how to quickly and efficiently catch Jhinga, a shrimp in the Thavnairian Coast used to cook Jhinga Biryani and Jhinga Curry, crafting and gathering food added in #ffxiv patch 6.3.

ââ-
Fish: Jhinga
Location: Thavnair
Hole: Thavnairian Coast
Bait: Mackerel Strip
Conditions: Any Time, Any Weather
Folklore Book: Ilsabard and the Northern Empty
Min Gathering: N/A (though Lv90+ gear is recommended)
đŁBasic Catching
Start off by using Prize Catch and casting out into in the Thavnairian Coast with Mackerel Strip. Jhinga is the only ! bite after 18 seconds (with a macro timer, see below) and thus is the only thing you should attempt to hook. On your first cast out after using Prize Catch, use Triple or Double Hook. You will get 3 or 2 Jhinga respectively. Once youâve done that, cast back out and continue to hook (single, double, or triple) ! bites after 18s.
đ§ȘEfficiency/Optimizations
If you are at GP cap, use Prize catch and then Triple Hook. This will get you 3 Anglerâs Art stacks. This is basically 150 GP you get to use via Thaliakâs Favor.
Jhinga has a surprisingly high bite rate, so Surface Slap and Chum are NOT recommended.
Versatile Lure is also NOT recommended. This is because it makes the bite times very long, and makes it so that Chalky Coral will bite during the window, meaning you can not blind hook Jhinga. This means youâll be spending GP on Surface Slap instead of Prize Catch, and Double/Triple Hook.
Good luck and happy fishing!

Ty!
Thank you as always for all the hard work Fruity!
Thank you so much for the guides! I was wondering why I didnt got this Fish at all qwq <3
This is an amazing guide! thank you so much <3
Why prize catch? The Jhinga being large doesn't matter for food right? and using 200 GP to gain 150 gp doesn't make any sense either.
what gathering/perception is needed to catch this fish?
Question about fishing: if any exclamation points come in before 18s, how do I ignore them without losing my bait?
great guide
Worth noting that it is actually possible to catch Qeyiq sole at 19s, it's happened to me 3 times now. Probably best to only blind DH/TH at 20+
I thought I had horrible luck, but I didn't have the tome. Thankfully I had extra scrips.
Great guide as always Fruity đ
Dont know why but I keep pulling up Qeyiq Sole or Thavnairian Goby and I have new tome for this.
So…I've spent an hour+ fishing and caught 1 Jhinga. Getting a lot of early !! and ! bites. Also, been catching Puff-Paya AFTER 18 seconds with Mackrel Strip bait.
Chalky Coral can be caught after 18 seconds with a !
