Fishers of surpassing skill can try their hand at reeling in impressive denizens of the deep once thought to be mere legend, earning an array of achievements in the process. Do you have what it takes to stake your claim as one of Eorzea's master anglers?

Crafting and Gathering Preview (03/18/2014)

Big Fishing was first introduced in Patch 2.2 on March 26, 2014. All big fish are of BGreen rarity.[1] Not to be confused with large-sized fish that replaced High Quality fish after Endwalker's release with patch 6.0. Subsequent to this change, the last six Big Fish released in an expansion are now officially referred to as Legendary Fish.[2]

Big fish are much harder to catch than regular fish and have specific time, weather, bait,   Mooch, and/or Fisher's Intuition prerequisites. Some weather requirements may require one specific weather to occur immediately after another weather type, creating very limited windows of opportunity to catch the fish. Big fish usually have at least a 15% chance to escape the hook regardless of player stats, with some fish having a significantly lower success rate. The legendary fish released at the end of each expansion are even harder to catch.

Unlock Requirements

Beginning with Heavensward, most of these fish also require Tomes of Regional Folklore.


Side quests Side Quest The Beast of Brewer's Beacon and Side Quest Feast of Famine function as an introduction to Big Fishing.

As of Patch 5.2 all big fish now show a !!! animation when they bite, as shown on the right. This does not necessarily mean   Powerful Hookset should be used; that depends on the specific fish.
There are also ordinary fish that use the !!! animation, so it is not a guarantee.

All times are given in Eorzea Time / in-game time.   Fish Eyes will not negate any of these time requirements, except for non-legendary big fish in A Realm Reborn, Heavensward, and Stormblood zones.

Legendary Fish

Legendary Fish are the last six big fish (one per zone) released in an expansion. Compared to "regular" big fish, legendary fish have even stricter requirements, ranging from catch windows once a week or rare, short 90-second catch windows, bite rates under 1%, extremely high slip rates over 90%, mooch or intuition requirements involving other big fish, or some combination of the above.

The quest Side Quest Feast of Famine involves catching all six legendary fish in A Realm Reborn.
