In fact, some of the larger sky fish are actually (mistakenly) thought to be Dravanian beasts.
Have a fishing quest dialogue =)

Firminnant:Quote:Greetings, traveler. Visitors from Limsa Lominsa are rare to these rare climes. I am told you seek to fish the magnificentcloud cutters that grace the Sea of Clouds. As squires, we practice catching our dinner, but the task is trying for even the most experienced among us. How one unaccustomed to the chore might hope to succeed where so many accomplished fishermen have failed is beyond me. But mine is not to stand in the way of foolhardy endeavors. The fish float upon inflating pockets of vapor, allowing them to ride currents of air. They are thus able to escape predators and take refuge in the clouds. Moreover, an aerial fish requires an aerial worm, in this case hoverworms. Such is the extent of knowledge that I can confer unto you. I fear the remainder is a matter of experience and skill. I should wish you good luck--you will surely need it.
Apparently them skyfish are edible and consumed not all that rarely =P
Nice! Was just going off the fishing text from the guide. Usually there's lore in there about who eats them, but wasn't in the log. Glad to see cloud cutters are actually eaten. ^^ Since this is all fishing guide gives you:
Quote:Cloud Cutter
The swiftest inhabitants of the Sea of Clouds, cloud cutters will fly straight in a single direction for malms before quickly turning at some unthinkable angle and darting off in another direction. On rare occasions, they have been known to puncture the armor plating of airships.
