  • Sisipu hopes you can show Chuchuroon the allure of lure fishing by catching five warmwater trout off the shores of Oakwood in upper La Noscea using crow flies.
  • Your lure fishing exploits have taught Chuchuroon a valuable lesson about the deceptive nature of fishing.
  • The next fisher quest will be available from Sisipu upon reaching level 25.

Dialogue

Accepting the quest

Sisipu: You might recall Chuchuroon, the babble-spewing fish connoisseur? Perhaps not, but he certainly recalls you.
Sisipu: Apparently, there aren't enough fish in the sea, so he's set his sights on freshwater fish. He's even tried catching them himself, though that's proved problematic so far.
Sisipu: While Qiqirn possess a healthy appetite for fish, they lack the necessary patience, and often end up eating their own bait.
Sisipu: The problem has a relatively straightforward solution——employing a lure in place of live bait.
Sisipu: Unfortunately, this straightforward solution requires a roundabout demonstration, as Chuchuroon does not readily accept the concept of inedible bait.
Sisipu: If only you might snag five warmwater trout with crow flies, he might come to see the light.
Sisipu: The fish are said to populate the shores of Oakwood in upper La Noscea, though I can't say I've been recently——I consider it inauspicious to cast one's line under the watchful gaze of a giant sea serpent.

Delivering items to Chuchuroon

Chuchuroon: How can [Player] bait fish without bait!?

Cutscene

Chuchuroon: You truly fish trout using fake food?
Sisipu: Indeed! For all the fish know, the lure may as well be live.
Sisipu: [Player] skillfully used them to catch these tasty tasties. You see, Chuchuroon, deception lies at the heart of fishing.
Chuchuroon: Yes, yes, lies lie at heart of fishing. Chuchuroon no fool, Chuchuroon fool fish!
Sisipu: Precisely. Well, I trust that we've managed to lure——ahem...guide you to the path of self-sufficient fishing.
