For Final Fantasy XIV players who want to be culinarians and alchemists, or perhaps those naturally drawn to the simple fishing rod, fishing can be an enjoyable pastime in the popular MMO. The empty pages of the fishing log compel would-be fishers to seek out every undiscovered fishing hole and try out new baits until they discover every fish. Fishing is about exploration, about patience, about waking up at 3:00 a.m. on a Thursday morning in order to catch the ocean fishing boat. Fishing is a job that rewards perseverance in such a satisfying way that it elevates it above every other Disciple of the Land job.
