I get asked a lot “Hey Fruity, how can you make money with fishing?” And it’s a little annoying.
That answer? You can’t really make money off fishing. Sort of.
But you can make money with gatherer scrip! And fisher’s get scrip very very quickly. Just spend spare lower tier scrip on Eurhinosaur.
Outside of that you just sell GC turn in, Leve, quest, and aquarium fish slowly to make some gil. There’s also some other fish that desynth into glams, but they too also sell slowly.
Eurhinosaur is basically a chill, no limit, fish that you can farm up with scrip and then afk desynth. It’s about 50 gil per scrip spent, on average.
Please enjoy.
Good luck and happy fishing!

I once got 1 million for my Aquamaton when it became an aquarium fish (could've gotten more if I logged in right after patch notes dropped and changed the price…)
Ignoring desynth time it's roughly 250k/hr fishing with Eurhinosaur.
I don't need the gil, I need the scrips to fuel my Hi-Cordial addiction.
It's definitely not a huge amount, no. But if you're completely stocked on scrips, don't want to flip it for Grade 11 Materia, or buy more cordials (the island's way better for those anyway), it's some nice pocket money for sure. A very easy way for a Free Trial player to stock back up, if nothing else!
How to make gil while *fishing*? I see what you did there. XD
While going for Sea Butterfly I would always end up with an excess amount of Scorpionfly. In my experience (which can vary of course, never wrote anything down), these seem to drop Allagan Gold Pieces a lot. Going for sea butterfly was the most profitable fishing I had ever done!
I was just expecting a "you dont" title card that last for a whole minute lmao
I made a nice buck by getting "The Unconditional" and selling it on MB a few years ago. but that was more of a side thing when that fish is about to spawn.
Fish in mb? No. It take sooo long. But bait/ lure might move faster, but usually isnt worth mich
at the beginning of the expansion my fishing retainer would bring back GC turn in fish that would sell for 20k a piece. that was some good money…now it just fails me each day in getting me my damn bird minion!
im checking mare everyday in cuchulainn. someone is running 4 bots 24-7 farming fleeting brands, maybe to do this or farm materia?
aethersand reduction is also a consistent source of money
Have a spare Warden handy for the next Club RP venue that needs its pride fish aquarium.
I made some coin selling titanic saw fish of all things.
Not me just farming Dark Matter Clusters
Unconditionals and wardens sell for pretty good value if you don't mind the frustrating catch rates 😅
I'm kinda surprised the ARR fisher desynth glams don't sell well on your server; I'm on Faerie and the bathing suit ones sell alright, especially the female versions and during the summer. 90k to 300k each for a few of these pieces. Sure they don't sell every day but I feel like most of them are easy enough to nab that you can have a couple different desynth pieces up on the MB for not too much effort.
