Has anyone tested out using fishing gear for black soles @ 100?
I thought I read that fishing gear works now somewhere.

Robber rig seems much more useful now too.
Can anyone with lower fishing verify if you get can get a double skill-up from catching two moat carps at once?

The freeze up is still not fixed too.

Pretty much this. What's happening is before you had literally no reason to pay attention to 'You didn't catch anything.' Whether it happened once or 6 times in a row it was just a frustrating phase that you forgot about 2 minutes later. Now you have to watch them in order to not waste your time, and because you have to watch them, you're noticing how frequently it occurs but the frequency hasn't actually changed. I catch fish at the same rate now that I did months ago.

As for moon phase I was pretty sure that actually had an effect on fishing in retail? Which means it wouldn't be strange for it to be a thing here. I feel like I get better bite rates at full & new moons (%90 waxing to %90 waning and %10 waning to %10 waxing). But I've never actually sat down and tracked how much I've caught during each phase to compare and contrast. If I'm going to fish the moonphase isn't likely to effect that decision whether it effects bite rate or not.

I am 93 fishing and I agree with this, I fish everyday for gil. It's the same to me and there is no difference from the past. One important thing to note if you do a lot of dual box fishing while doing other things. If you dont get your catch in time, you will freeze up the character forcing you to "x" out of ashita. (you can still let monsters go without this glitch.)

I can't confirm this because doing so would take more effort that it's worth in the end, but I have noticed on Full Moons I tend to fish up a lot more mythril swords than I do at other times. It might just be a coincidence.

I did 10 hours of fishing in Qufim and the average gil per hour was 46.7k with a 44% biterate. Will also say in 10 hours I only caught 8 swords, wasn't tracking moonphases.

Were you using Rogue Rig or Sinking Minnow?
