Storm Core
Location
The Sea of Clouds holds 40 fisher nodes, 3 of them time-restricted and the other 37 available at any hour. At level 54 this is higher than 11 of the other 39, which span levels 51 to 73. This one is not among the 3 that are, so it needs no timing — the 37 untimed nodes here can be worked in any order.
Fishing Forecast
Replaying the weather rotation for 365 real days from 1 January 2020 — 7,509 Eorzean days across 22,526 eight-bell weather periods — Storm Core opens 4,917 times, about 13.5 windows per real day. Those windows average 32 minutes 16 seconds, which leaves it catchable 30.2% of the time.
The median wait from one window closing to the next opening is 46 minutes 40 seconds, and the mean 1 hour 15 minutes. The shortest gap in that simulation was 23 minutes 20 seconds; the worst drought ran 10 hours 30 minutes.
Ranked against every other fish in this dataset that carries a time or weather requirement, that is the 235th tightest of 348: 106 are catchable for more of the clock than Storm Core, and 7 others land on exactly the same figure.
Those windows are not spread evenly across the conditions that allow them: Fog carries 33.7% of them (1,655 of 4,917) and Wind 33.3%, leaving 1 rarer combination to make up the rest.
