With all the changes made last week to the fishing system, I feel most of the older guides are at best suboptimal, and at worst obsolete. Two major things have changed:

Form a party with a higher level friend, they tank the Mob you use Ninjutsu on it. You aren't interested in EXP but instead skill-up so not getting EXP shouldn't be a problem.
As far as skill-up goes refer to this post I made. Skill-up will happen more if the mob isn't too far over your cap.
