I would like to now add the moat carp route that I took going 1-56. (After 56 there is no viable spot to fish carp and skill up)
A few things. From my own trial and error it seems 20 skill is the farthest we can go to still be able to reel in fish. I have had people try and tell me they fished this or that but after hours trying for shall shells at 33, and Gold carps at 35, I'm sticking with 20.
I used only Halcyon, yes I do know Composite rod is great.
1-5 Port Bastok
Halcyon + Little worm
Jellyfish, Sardines.
(You can most likely skip straight to Yuhtunga, was just testing it out for an hour or so)
5-20 Yuhtunga Jungle
Halcyon + Insect paste
Moat Carp, Forest Carp
(Forest Carp can be turned in for Lu Shang quest as well)
20-33 West Sarutabaruta
Halcyon + Insect paste
Moat carp, Dark Bass
33-36 Post Bastok
Halcyon + Worm Lure
Zafmlug Bass
(So here we chould have went with Zeruhn Mines or some such and done carp + black eel, but there is just so much extra crap in the water with it, Catfish and crayfish. I decided to skill this gap quickly and move on.)
36-56 Windurst Waters
Halcyon + Insect paste
Moat carp, Gold carp
56 you say?! and only 4-6k Carp? well me to bud, if you are still going after the carp I would suggest going back to Yuhtunga, since the only fish you can get with insect paste can be turned in for quest.

Where are you fishing in yuhtung?
