IIRC chain fishing and pokéradar also had pretty decent shiny odds in that gen, but from personal experience I have to agree with Yokozuna that hordes are still better to find specific shinies - and they feel more "natural" as well, compared to the other two methods.

Oh yea I totally forgot about chain fishing. I got a shiny Relicanth like that, I forgot the details about it but it's totally doable.

Edt: thinking about it some more I think I used an octillery with suction cups as the ability? This makes it to where there will always be a bite when you cast.
