Helicoprion ★★★
Location
Southern Thanalan holds 39 fisher nodes, none of them time-restricted, so a single trip clears the lot. At level 50 this is higher than 31 of the other 38, which span levels 19 to 50. Nothing in the zone is on a timer, and 8 of its nodes sit at level 50, so there is a cluster to work through rather than a single stop.
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 — Helicoprion opens 880 times, about 2.4 windows per real day. Every one of those windows runs 23 minutes 20 seconds, which leaves it catchable 3.91% of the time.
The median wait from one window closing to the next opening is 6 hours 13 minutes, and the mean 9 hours 34 minutes. The shortest gap in that simulation was 23 minutes 20 seconds; the worst drought ran 2 days 5 hours.
Ranked against every other fish in this dataset that carries a time or weather requirement, that is the 35th tightest of 348: 312 are catchable for more of the clock than Helicoprion, and one other lands on exactly the same figure.
Those windows are not spread evenly across the conditions that allow them: Heat Waves following Fog carries 51.6% of them (454 of 880) and Heat Waves following Clouds 48.4%.
