The following information may be incomplete.
Major fleshing out needed, pictures need to be added, lists need to be added. Wanted to get this out so there's at least some guide out there

Ever wanted to channel your inner fisherman on Oshan or Nadir? Now you can! This is a guide on fishing.

Your gear

If you order by yelling kindly asking QM to order you a Angling Starter Kit, you get a Portable Fishing Supplies Vendor which is preloaded with five fishing credits, a Portable Aquatic Research Upload Terminal, and your very own Portable Aquatic Research Pool (NOT a tub of water) can be fished in an infinite amount of times yielding an infinite amount of fish (don't question it).

Fishing Supplies Vendor

Here, you can redeem fishing credits for fishing rods and angler clothing. Here is a list of what you can purchase using fishing credits.

Aquatic Research Upload Terminal

Here, you can trade fish for research tickets which covert to fishing credits. The terminal uses a tier list system to categorize fish rarity with five rankings, ranging from common to legendary. Usually, fishes found in more obscure places tend to be worth more than fish found in common places, as the fish there are probably rarer.

Type Image Value
Common Research Ticket Commonresearchticket.png One fishing credit
Uncommon Research Ticket Uncommonresearchticket.png Two fishing credits
Rare Research Ticket N/A Three fishing credits
Exotic Research Ticket N/A Four fishing credits
Legendary Research Ticket N/A Five fishing credits

Fishin' in space

To fish, click on the tub of water provided, and the your super fancy fishing rod will take care of the rest, automatically casting and reeling in fish for you to enjoy. If you switch to your offhand or put your rod away, you will cease fishing, forcing you to cast your rod again. Some rods are better than others, for instance the Master's Fishing Rod, the highest tier of rod you can get will catch better fish than an ordinary basic one. Better rods will also catch fish faster, because space fish are attracted to more superior rods.

You aren't limited to just the provided tub of water. Try turning on the shower and fishing in there, pour water on the floor and cast your rod, the possibilities are endless! Try fishing in places nobody thought of before and experiment! After all there are about sixty different places in the game where you can cast your rod in, so don't shy away from places you believe won't work. You may be pleasantly surprised. It's also worth mentioning that there are some pretty wild and exotic places you can fish in down in the adventure zones, so don't be afraid to explore and find out what you can fish in.

I caught... What is that?

You are able to catch fish that those earthlings may even recognize. Though, of course there are some truly beautiful fish you are able to catch, exclusive to their own special areas, though you will have to do your own exploring, these pretty ones are a well kept secret (not so secret) amongst experienced anglers. So far, here is a list of what you are able to catch.
