i just caught one with lu shangs and shrimp lure
anyone know its lvl?

I've just spent a fair amount of time today with a variety of fish-size rods using both the worm lure and the sinking minnow lure.... not a whole lot of luck. Lotsa of kelp, buckets, and a few moorish idols, but that was about all the Purgonorgo Island had for me. I'm speculating that this fish is much more fond of live bait-- I'll be back someday with some meatballs.

In the meantime, I'll just buy them from Mep back on the mainland to turn into the guild for my fish du jour points. ><

If anyone has a success story of how to catch these, please share! I think now I've spent more trying to figure out what will catch them than if I'd just bought them from Mep in the first place... that wouldn't bother me so much if I wasn't walking away as clueless as I started....
