Ocean fishing has long been a kind of semi-secret hack to level up your Fisher job very quickly and get some of the coolest and most relaxing stuff in Final Fantasy XIV. So it’s fantastic news that FFXIV Patch 6.4 has added some new sea fishing routes, taking you on a cruise around the shores of Coogan and the Ruby Sea. Here’s how to unlock and cruise on your own.

No new quests to unlock new sea fishing routes. Just make sure you’ve already unlocked Fisher’s work by taking on the quest called “The Way of the Fisherman” on the lower decks of Limsa Lominsa (X:7, Y:14). Then head to Drisktota at X:3, Y:12 at the docks to register for Ocean Fishing.

What distinguishes the new sea fishing routes from the old ones is the name of the route. The old route was called the Indigo Route and you could fish in familiar places like the Rotano Sea, Rotlit Sound and more.
The new route is called the Ruby Route . You will need to register with Ruby Route when registering for a fishing expedition. This will give you access to new locations, Ruby Price and One River . If you look at the map, this is a huge trip, so get ready for some incredible fishing!
