A little fish error #FFXIV

This NPC fisher starts fishing for salmon, and spawns the FATE "Bear Apparent" - stating that Salmon spawning throws bear into a frenzy.

There is *technically* no Salmon in the Wilholm River. But Twintongue and three lip CARP are depicted as salmon.

I'd assume whoever designed the FATE and the dialogue lines wasn't connected to the FSH side and probably underestimated the likelihood of someone going "salmon? what salmon? that river has no salmon."

Conversely, during HW, someone didn't know what a Carp looked like.

Little clarity on this - there are what *look like* Salmon in the river - Twin-tongued Carp and Three Lipped Carp.

The issue is, carps aren't related to salmon (as far as I know), and the icons for these carps - are actually Coho Salmon, or some species of Gray-colored Salmon.

Just a name thing.
