Pi pikachu pika. Pikachu pi pikachu. Pika pi pi pi! Pi pi pikachu pika. Pikachu pika pika. Pika pikachu.
(Pika decided to get back into Mabi...except due to laziness and the desire to watch anime, read manga, and out of intense boredom play random dating sims (lol Love Plus) Pika is doing fishing at the moment.
So here's some of Pika's initial questions :
1) Where's the best place to fish for ranking fishing? So far Tir Chonaill's been working out and got me to rank 8.
2) At rank 5, what's the best place for fishing up rare junk with fishing? Pika was thinking that that boat in Iria will do good since people go crazy for rare colored Long Leather Bow.
3) Does it become faster or slower to rank Fishing as ranks advance? Pika understands as ranks advance, the proficiency gain dwindles, yet at the same time the fishing rate rises quickly.
4) How hard is it to get Pika's hands on a Item Piecing W22?)

I haven't really ranked Fishing, but chilling on the Fishing Boat for 2 days gave me a lot of great loot.
You need r7 Handicraft and some relatively rare materials to make Item Piecing W22, so it's pretty hard to find that.

Fishing becomes slower as your rank goes up.

1. emain macha is the best place as the ratio of what caught is like 40% fish, 40% item and 20% scroll. tir has higher fish rate than that so you have to fish a bit while not getting prof from fish.
2.boat or abb neagh for pearls.
3.slower
4. i saw a guy advertising he was buying the w22 for days before the add stopped. so will probly e a tad difficult unless you know a r7+ handicrafter.

we have a r1 fisher and he said that vales is the best place to get those pesky scrolls. Also tir is next best.

Pika pikachu. Pi pika.
(Pika means best spot in general. Also Vales isn't too great of an idea for Pika since :
1) It's in the middle of a huge map.
2) Fishing spot expires after an hour.
3) Pika is an elf. Pika not welcome in Giant Land to buy more bait.
So far Pika thought it'd work out in Tir and the Fishing Boat since you can buy more Bait and more rods quickly and AFK without worry.)

Fishing is gonna take a while to rank, and it's only good for the rare items you can get, so I recommend fishing at places like tir or fishing boat.
For the quest scrolls, Vales is indeed the best, but as you said, it's not the best place to train fishing. Finish your other requirements first, and THEN if you need exp from fishing up quest scrolls, get a giant and head over to the Vales Area.
Fishing, indeed, becomes slower. Even with the higher rate of "bites", there is no guarantee that your auto-fish will succeed in fishing 100% of the time (unless you know how to manual fish 100%, but this is unlikely since you wanna watch anime and stuff =3), So finishing will become DRASTICALLY slower.
Item Pi-- whatever. I personally recommend you rank handicraft so you can make it yourself. After r5 fishing, it's a great bonus to have that extra boost in fishing rates, and it's not always easy to find sellers. Plus, with a high enough handicraft, I believe you can also make better bait!
As for the general "best place" for afk-fishing, Tir Chonaill and Fishing Boat. If you plan on ranking fishing, bless your rod. Fishing bait can be bought from Malcolm or the lady on the boat (Petra, whom you can even sell your useless loot to!)
When you're fishing on the boat, just check back once in a while to see if you got a treasure chest, which could contain the treasured "Diamond" enchant that would sell easily for 200k =) (at least, in Tarlach o.o)
