Now, you might be thinking, “Fishing? Isn’t that just a side mini-game in Final Fantasy XIV?” Well, not quite. Fishing is not just a mere distraction but a full-fledged job in the game.

It covers fishing through every expansion, area, and Fisher job level. Though at the moment it’s a simple Google doc, this guide has been beautifully decorated with images and a clean font.
