Dialogue
Accepting the quest
Sisipu: You might recall Chuchuroon, the babble-spewing fish connoisseur? Perhaps not, but he certainly recalls you. Sisipu: Apparently, there aren't enough fish in the sea, so he's set his sights on freshwater fish. He's even tried catching them himself, though that's proved problematic so far. Sisipu: While Qiqirn possess a healthy appetite for fish, they lack the necessary patience, and often end up eating their own bait. Sisipu: The problem has a relatively straightforward solution——employing a lure in place of live bait. Sisipu: Unfortunately, this straightforward solution requires a roundabout demonstration, as Chuchuroon does not readily accept the concept of inedible bait. Sisipu: If only you might snag five warmwater trout with crow flies, he might come to see the light. Sisipu: The fish are said to populate the shores of Oakwood in upper La Noscea, though I can't say I've been recently——I consider it inauspicious to cast one's line under the watchful gaze of a giant sea serpent.
Delivering items to Chuchuroon
Chuchuroon: How can [Player] bait fish without bait!?
Cutscene
Chuchuroon: You truly fish trout using fake food? Sisipu: Indeed! For all the fish know, the lure may as well be live. Sisipu: [Player] skillfully used them to catch these tasty tasties. You see, Chuchuroon, deception lies at the heart of fishing. Chuchuroon: Yes, yes, lies lie at heart of fishing. Chuchuroon no fool, Chuchuroon fool fish! Sisipu: Precisely. Well, I trust that we've managed to lure——ahem...guide you to the path of self-sufficient fishing.
