Комментарий от 282793

Поймал только что в 13:00 по Москве в Болоте Печали со второго заброса прямо с моста пристани. До этого ловил в Азшаре минут 30 - полный ноль!

Комментарий от Morion

В связи с тем, что после Катаклизма Азшара стала локацией для 10-20 уровней, из рыбацкого дропа были исключены все высокоуровневые предметы и добавлены те, что соответствуют уровню территории.
Можете не ждать там рыбу выше, чем для 20-го уровня.

Когда-то давным давно, 26 Сентября 2011 года во время празднования хмельного фестиваля Тролль по имени спаммер надравшись в стельку вспомнил что у него есть незаконченное дело "Кальмаровое" И Отправился он сквозь мутный рассудок и сломанный мозжечок рыбачить. Предварительно расспросив местных олкашей где улов будет хороший.
Полетел Спаамер в Выжженные земли,предположив что климат там будет благоприятнейший и улов аналогично такой-же.Еле еле долетел он на своем неуправляемом "Крылатом страже" до деревушки с названием "Сурвич" и принялся раскладывать свои рыбацкие снасти. Спустя минут 10 подготовки хлебнул немного "Двоичного поила" и закинул удочку. . .Поплавок не видно,в глазах туман,мало того уже была ночь и бедный тролль совсем измотался в надежде выловить что ни будь стоящее.Руки замерзли,на удочке появился иней рыба не клевала. (Наверно это из за того что я перед рыбалкой сплюнул пивную пену в озеро) Пообщавшись с распорядителем полетов фракции "Альянс" сделал вывод что тут ловить нечего И направился дальше... В полете он увидел красивое озеро с руинами по середине, оказывается это храм ацтеков "Храм Атал'Хаккара" Тут же вспомнился разговор с пьяным орком недалеко от "Оргримара" что есть легенда которая гласит "Напившись,и отчаявшись закинь удочку вблизи храма и тебя непременно ждет подарок,но помни что если ты получишь подарок менее чем за минуты рыбалки ты должен будешь зайти на Wоwhead и рассказать свой случай людям,или не видать тебе удачи" Спаамер закинул удочку в озеро и был ошалмлен. На крючке висел "Зимний кальмар" и тут же после того как он снял его с крючка был получен подарок о котором гласила легенда,моим подарком стало достижение "Океанолог" А Ваше?

Спаамер Свежеватель душ.

вчера вечером поймала зимнего кальмара с 3 заброса с корабля Заставы болотной воды

Комментарий от 1012525

выловила окуня..... подскажите рецептик=3

Комментарий от axel17

В игре есть две рыбы, которые можно выудить только в определенное время года.
Это Зимний кальмар, которого можно выудить между 23 сентября и 19 марта,
и Сырой летний окунь, которого можно поймать с 20 марта до 22 сентября.
Кальмар более ценен, потому что используется для создания самой сильной еды, увеличивающей ловкость. А окунь используется для еды, увеличивающий дух, поэтому может пригодится, в основном для жрецов, которые не хотят тратить деньги на более дорогую еду. Продавая рыбу, которую сейчас не выловить, вы можете накопить достаточно золота. Например, вы можете выловить летнего окуня до 22 сентября, после чего он будет недоступен аж 6 месяцев.

Комментарий от Admiral2k

Рецепт: жареный кальмар можно приобрести у Гиккикс, который находится в Танарис в Порте Картеля на востоке от Прибамбасска

Комментарий от kelebris

Ловится в Залив Бурь, Азшара.

Шанс около 25%, но с 12 ночи по 6 утра вероятность сильно падает, и немного возрастает после полудня (по серверному времени). Требуется Рыбалка от 330, я начал ловить с ~360. Рыба срывалась примерно 1/10 –1/15.

За 15 минут в 9 вечера поймал 6.

Комментарий от Farshmak

Прокачивал рыбалку в Танарисе, порт Карателя, с 190 до 205. 15 уровней - 15 кальмаров + пара десятков каменных угрей и мощь рыбы. В теории можно и там ловить, на везение. Переехал в Азшару, пробрался на берег, за 10 мин кальмара не поймал (рыбалка 206+наживка). Заплыл дальше в море, встретил 2 лунки обломков рядом, встал на островке и на тебе.. Не достаточно уровня рыбалки и это при 208+5+100. Лок 44 лвл. Забил и улетел обратно в танарис. Ловил не из лунок. Удачи вам, кальмар - штука нужная 8))

2019.01.21
Добрался до Азшары, лок 50.
Ловил с 11-00 до 13-30 по серверному времени. Предположение буржуев, что после 40-45 кальмаров клёв хуже - не подтвердилось.
С 12-30 до 13-00 самый клёв (около 30% шанс). Рыбалил в Заливе бурь, на крыше затопленного храма (61,71).

Комментарий от NightVK

Недалеко от побережья в Заливе бурь Азшары ловил кальмаров с навыком 305. В этом месте кроме самих кальмаров попадались Сырая каменношкурая треска, Сырой пятнистый желтохвост, Сырая блестящая мощь-рыба и Огнеперый луциан.

Если отплыть дальше от берега, с навыком 305 ловить не разрешает. С навыком 380 рыбка часто уплывала, с 405 - тоже уплывала, но реже. В этих местах вместо перечисленных выше рыб ловились Темноклешневый омар и Крупная сырая мощь-рыба. Казалось, что кальмаров здесь ловилось больше, чем возле побережья.

В обоих зонах также попадались Моллюск-болтун и Каменный угорь.

Комментарий от 2Py6Jl9

Весь день 18.03 стоял на одном месте 52.10 39.62 и ловил кальмаров (хорошее место). После 00:00 по серверному времени перестали ловиться Зимний кальмар совсем, хотя я заметил спустя почти час, обратив внимание, что место заканчивается в сумках, а кальмаров не добавляется больше. То есть уже с 19 марта их не выловить до нового сезона)

Может в следующем году это кому-то поможет действовать заранее ;-)

i got few hundred of them in bank. theres a good thing to store these if you get the chance. me and my few buddies went fishin all day (December 20) and i got quite a load of this great seafood. rogue and hunter energy food :) when cooked it gives you 10 agility. best "well fed" food for rogues at all levels.

Anyone know if this applies to Oceanic servers or is it reversed? Trying to catch some of these today and not seen a one.......

Комментарий от 122756

On the US servers, you can catch Winter Squid from Sept 23 until March 20. (between fall and spring equinoxes).

If you try on an Oceanic server during that timeframe and you catch Summer Bass instead... well, then it's reversed for you guys.

Комментарий от 64664

I'm still using this fish' recipe to get level up my cooking untill I can make Sandworm meat.
Although they go for about 30g on the AH per stack, it's considered cheaper then actually level up fishing just to get hundreds of 'em.

If you want to spend you money go ahead, personally I could take the 8 hrs to get fishing to 300.

Fishing In Azshara - Winter Squid

After combing the bay for fishing spots I discovered that these fish are in the open water. Just cast into any part of the water. I fished for about 45 min and caught 3 Winter Squid. You don't need to go far out for them, and the closer you are to shore the lower the fishing skill required to fish (less lost fish).

I came to Azshara for 2 fish, Winter Squid and Large Raw Mightfish. In the time I mentioned above none of my catch were Large Raw Mightfish (which has a lower drop rate):

Winter Squid -------------10% drop rate (reagent for Grilled Squid ----- buff bonus - +10 Agility for 10 min)
Large Raw Mightfish -- 5% drop rate (reagent for Mightfish Steak - buff bonus - +10 Stamina for 10 min)

Purpose in Azshara: Level cooking and fishing at the same time catching the above mentioned fishes. Both the level of the fishing skill required and the level of cooking required for the recipies are high and as near as I can see to Master Angler and Master Chef.

Комментарий от Thoric

If the above drop rates are true, i'd suggest going to Feralas for these. I'm getting about a 40% droprate right off the coast at Feathermoon Stronghold.

I'm fishing right now and getting them without going into schools, so no you don't have to fish them in schools.

Комментарий от 311350

Don't let the level change of the zone fool you; you can still find Winter Squid here. I went out into the Bay of Storms proper (used a water walking potion to really get away from the shore) and got it on my second cast at 1:35am server time.

Excellent rate off the coast of Blasted Lands. Fished for 20 min. and got 5 of these. They get good coin in the AH, as the recipe these are for yeilds an agility buff (Edited to correct zone).

Комментарий от 795648

I fished for like half an hour at Jaguero Isle with no luck. I then read that the part of the island you fish on makes a difference, so I moved to the southern tip of the island and caught a Winter Squid on my second cast.

Комментарий от 597835

Azshara, all the out at the farthest point (south) on the little bumpy pieces of land. Best catch rate that I saw, everywhere else had to many other random fishes and boxes. Mostly I got the Darkclaw Lobsters, but the ratio was still decent. By the time I had a stack of the squid I had 2 1/2 stacks of the Lobster, and 14 clams (which a couple gave pearls for opening)

Please check the times and date of the Spring and Fall Equinox to discover when you may be able to fish up Raw Summer Bass and Winter Squid

For 2011, the date/time of the Spring Equinox is March 20th 23:21 UTC time... which is not GMT.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC

It is an astronomical event--which happens at a particular time and date. It is not a calendar event.

Edit: this does not mean Blizzard coded it that way. but it would explain why it hasn't been caught yet.
In Windows, there is a Time Zone setting for (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time. If you are so inclined to cast at the exact time of the equinox. :)
I may, just for .... and giggles.

Комментарий от Dreadmight

March 21, 11 am PST
Just started working on the Limnologist, went to fish in the Bay of Storms for the squid. I'm catching a decent rate of Summer Bass, but no squid. Looks like poor timing on my part. Gonna fish in other areas and see if I find any.

Комментарий от ClasscMalcontent

Credit to El's Extreme Anglin guide for the exact information.

Raw Summer Bass are available Spring and Summer. (Late-March to Mid-September check year for exact dates.)
Winter Squid are available Fall and Winter. (Late-September to Mid-March check year for exact dates.)

I can confirm the highest catch rates are 12:00 - 18:00 (Noon to 6PM). Now, if only I had caught a Winter Squid on my main and not my alt before the season ended. /facepalm

The Oceanographer achievement can now be completed if you caught the Winter Squid in the Fall/Winter and now the Raw Summer Bass in the Spring/Summer.

Important Note: I hope El's doing well. For now El's Anglin is only available on web archive websites. Best wishes El.
Update: There is a resurrected version at El's Anglin Reborn. Apparently after El stopped playing this group has pulled most of the content and is now maintaining it as an active copy of the information.

I can confirm that this final Oceanography specimen needed by me was not catchable today in the prime area in the center of Bay of Storms with 300 casts using 665 fishing skill between 1200 and 1800 loc fished in radius from 47.4 54.6 disappointing, but I had to test it.

Комментарий от kenshinn

Nothings been dropping there lately, other than standard fishing drops. Ever since the patch it seems. Even the Darkclaw lobster doesn't come up anymore.

Комментарий от 780813

Spring started on March 21st. This has nothing to do with the patch. I suggest you read at least ONE of the green posts above where people have repeatedly stated that this "fish" is only available during fall and winter, meaning from Sepember 21st till March 20th.

It has NOTHING to do with Patch 4.1

Комментарий от 434395

Actually, from other posts and my own experience it does in fact seem that fish like Крупная сырая мощь-рыба and Темноклешневый омар are no longer catchable from Azshara's waters as of 4.1. Reason would suggest squid aren't either, but we won't know for sure until September.

This change is probably a delayed reaction to the zone itself being remade to levels 8-20, as level-appropriate fish can now be caught here instead (Сырая скользкокожая скумбрия, Сырой радужный тунец, and Масляный черноротик).

If you are coming to Azshara for squid or any of the other fish that used to be catchable there, go fish off the coasts of Болото Печали or Выжженные земли instead.

Edit: According to a post on El's Extreme Angling, the old Azshara fish are still catchable around the Ruins of Arkkoran (Northeast area of the Bay of Storms).

Комментарий от 824950

Oh dear - rarely does a post make me desperate to reply, but you managed it. Can I politely suggest that you read what you reply to first and confirm your facts before making an such arrogant and wrong statements?

The green posta above that you refer to say that Winter Squid CAN be caught in May, not fall and winter as you say. Also, the poster is correct, Bay of Storms is now dropping no special fish, including those that used to drop all year. All you get now are Oily Blackmouth etc.

Комментарий от 697659

Is there a second source for the Winter Squid being catchable in May? I've been trying for 30 minutes and haven't found it yet, so I did some extra research and so far every single source of information doesn't even hint at this fish being catchable outside of the already overstated equinoxes.

Edit: Looking at the Summer Bass thread they indicate all over it that you can catch the Winter Squid even in May, but so far after many tries at different times of day, I'm still unsuccessful, so until someone provides more valid, less irrelevant information, then I'm declaring it's uncatchable until September. And please stop with the vague comments, it wastes a lot player's time.

Комментарий от 497444

Edit: According to a post on El's Extreme Angling, the old Azshara fish are still catchable around the Ruins of Arkkoran (Northeast area of the Bay of Storms).

Can confirm this is not the case, as of May 18/11 on 4.1. Tried north and south side of ruins, the basic low level fish only are here.

Комментарий от 513857

I apologize for hijacking your post, but it is for a good reason.

To those of you fishing for hours upon hours in Azshara to catch this fish, stop now. Since the Cataclysm expansion came out, Azshara was changed to a low level zone, and consequently, fishing in the area is now low level. Darkclaw Lobster, Summer Bass, Winter Squid, and Large Mightfish can no longer be fished here.
The Blasted Lands is now a good area, or any other level 50ish area.

Happy angling!

Комментарий от kalaa

"Raw Summer Bass and Winter Squid are seasonal fish. The catch changes at the September and March equinoxes. This means one can be caught in Winter, one in Summer. There is no way to catch Raw Summer Bass in Winter, or Winter Squid in Summer - except to wait a few months"

This fish should now be available again. You can fish this in the fall/winter.

Комментарий от 863853

As of 4.2 cataclysm updated:

Not sure which person is right about the exact date when you can catch Summer Bass and Winter Squid, but as of now, on Sep 14, 2011 at 9:06pm server time, I caught a summer bass and no winter squids on the coast of blasted lands at 65,84. IMHO, this is the best spot if you're hearthed to either Org/SW or Dal (there are ports to Org/SW in dal, all other ports in dal are gone) because you can just use the portal to blasted lands in Org (not sure about SW but I'm guessing they have that too). On a very important side note, AZSHARA IS NO LONGER A PLACE TO FISH FOR THESE. It is a lower level place now and if you try to fish there for summer bass/winter squid like I did, it will only end in frustration. Back to the summer bass/winter squid one person says it's sept, another oct, another nov for the winter squid. I saw one post of a person claiming that you cannot catch them at the same time. I'm not sure which one is true, but according to elsanglin.com, summer bass can only be caught between March (Spring) and September (Autumn/Fall) equinox (approximately 20 March to 22 September), and winter squid can only be caught between September (Autumn/Fall) and March (Spring) equinox (approximately 22 September to 20 March). Also, according to the same source, you CANNOT catch them at the same time. You either have summer bass or winter squid available, but not both at the same time. They are available separately for a 6 month period. This source is probably more reliable than a random person's post, but then again I haven't tested it out personally so I don't know for sure.

Assuming the worst case scenario and the most likely answer, Sep 22 is the last day for you to catch summer bass and then it's winter squid until March. That means 9 days from the time I have posted this, YOU WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO CATCH SUMMER BASS. If you're working on the oceanographer achievement, YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MARCH NEXT YEAR TO GET IT. If all this is true and you are reading this, GET IT NOW BEFORE TIME EXPIRES. GO TO BLASTED LANDS AND FISH UP RAW SUMMER BASS NOW!

I hope this helps you and you read this in time to take advantage of this perfect time frame to get your achievement. I will continue to fish and update this as necessary in the event the dates and/or information are wrong. Winter squid is the last fish I need for my achievement! Wish me luck and good luck to all of you!

Also as a side note, if you're not on a US server, the summer bass/winter squid might be reversed for you, due to you being in a different part of the globe. In either case the fish may be switched, but the deadlines would be the same.

(P.S. As others have said and some ignored, this is NOT reverse for Oceanic servers)

Caught Winter Squid today at 20:07 Server Time on Anachronos!

Azshara proved to be taking way to long, I spent one hour fishing with no results.
I went to Blasted lands. I went to the coast, and landed this squid in 8 cast. Good times.

Confirmed, Was fishing all day in Azshara today during "peak" times, then came back later (2amish) and got on my 6th cast in Blasted lands.

Комментарий от 275836

Had no luck in about 50 casts in Azshara. On third cast in Swamp of Sorrows (Misty Reed Strand) on 9/24/11 6:58 AM finally caught my squid

Комментарий от Stjimmy

Can be fished up in Shattershore, Blasted Lands. Took me 5 casts. Don't waste your time going to Azshara.

Комментарий от 64825

Today is Sept. 24, I've been fishing in Bay Of Storms for at least 15 mins and fishing has leveled maybe 20 tmes. There is NO winter squid here

Комментарий от Mantrhax

I just fished a Winter Squid at Shattershore 70,25 Blasted Lands

So if u need it for the achiev.. thats the time to fish !

Good Luck

Комментарий от 134589

Spent a lot of time trying all over Azshara to catch a Winter Squid, but no luck.

Fished off the coast of Tanaris by Gadgetzan and it was my 2nd catch.

Комментарий от Peter4730

26 SEPTEMBER 2011 - looks like the Winter Squid are back ! Spent 30 mins for no result in Azshara. Transferred to the top of a (half-submerged) palm tree east of Gadgetzan/Tanaris, and caught my Winter Squid within 8 minutes. Achievement complete! Good luck all !

Комментарий от Peter4730

Yep, looks like Tanaris coast is the place to fish (2011.09.26)

Комментарий от 884623

Зимний кальмар is part of Океанолог achievement. It is a winter fish that only can be fished off the coast from September 23rd to March 20th. Since Azshara zone change, it would seem the winter squid is no longer available in Azshara.
Swamp of Sorrows, Blasted Lands or Tanaris all have decent fishing rates to catch the winter squid. Don't waste your time in Azshara the way I did. (Casted hundreds of times in Azshara with no luck, first cast in Swamp of Sorrows caught my winter squid). Results may vary. Good Luck!

Комментарий от Cupcakee

Red Reaches is an excellent place. Fished up Winter Squid on my 5th catch and Large Raw Mightfish on my 11th. (as of 9/26/11)

Комментарий от hockeytownrox

Reading the above posters, I too went to Blasted Lands. Red Reach. And I fished at 72, 67. Got my quid on the first cast!

Комментарий от talidrow

Caught one yesterday, 9/25/11 at about 7:45am server time on Wyrmrest Accord. I fished for about half an hour off the dock in Surwich and didn't catch one, then moved down the coast a little way so I was out of town and just in Blasted Lands according to Titan & my minimap, and caught it within 5 casts.

Not sure if I was just unlucky or if you just can't catch this from town. Got lots of Lightning Eel and Sunscale/Whitescale salmon from the Surwich dock, and that was it.

56.84 Blasted Lands, less than 5 casts. I hope this helps.

Winter Squid on 28/09/11 On east coast of Blasted Lands. First fish =]

Комментарий от flintam

Caught Winter Squid on southern coast of Выжженные земли, near Surwich. Only 2 fish and he came to me. Was the last needed to complete Океанолог achievement

Комментарий от 415566

I just caught Зимний кальмар from Выжженные земли today for the Океанолог achievement. DO NOT try fishing in Azshara for this catch because it simply won't happen. I (like others) was foolish enough to try during off season AND the wrong zone. Save yourself the trouble and wait. Or fish arch nemesis Сырой летний окунь, which can be fished in the same zone.

Since no screenshots have been posted, I took the liberty to submit one of where I was at when I caught both Зимний кальмар and the Сырой летний окунь. Not at the same time mind you. However... if one waited until the last few minutes of summer, right as the fall equinox was official.... I suppose one could catch both fish back to back, huh.. ?

Anyway, hope this helps.

Комментарий от Crystarion

I just caught a Winter Squid in the Blasted Lands at 75 x 58 at roughly 9:30pm server

Was actually considered the Forbidding Sea at that location

hope this helps some

Комментарий от 696034

Confiming the above post. Flew to Blasted Lands...East Coast. About 2'o' clock position from The Dark Portal in BL. This was at 10.30pm today

(1st cast too!) :D Good Luck!

Комментарий от philcolwill

If your after this fish for the Океанолог ( or for any reason come to think of it ), and your fishing in Azshara be mindful that the fishing tables changed since Cataclysm.

I would strongly suggest fishing in the Ruins of Arkkoran, if your after Зимний кальмар, as its the only location that seems to have the Pre-Cata fish available. I personally fished @ 69.0 - 37.8 which worked for me.

if your fishing and catching the likes of Сырой пятнистый желтохвост or Сырая каменношкурая треска your in the right place.

if your catching the likes of Сырая скользкокожая скумбрия or Сырой радужный тунец your probably in the wrong area .

Комментарий от 834319

Зимний кальмар can be caught off the coast of Blasted Lands from approximately September 22 until approximately March 20 (check date of equinox) as this is Wow's official winter period. Was able to get mine off Surwich on the second cast with fully leveled 525 fishing skill. The summer can be used to catch Сырой летний окунь Wowhead suggests these are catchable in Azshara, but I tried for over an hour and came up with nothing.

Other fish from the same place were (10 casts)

7 x Темноклешневый омар
1 x Каменный угорь
1 x Heavy Crate (containing Твердое взрывчатое вещество)

After having trouble trying to get a squid in Azshara, I tried Swamp of Sorrows, coords: 88.95, 80.30 pointing just right of North. In less than 10 minutes I caught 19 Darkclaw Lobster, and 5 Squid, at 17:45 server time, on Friday the data of this post. I also had +165 fishing ( ) on top of my 525 fishing, for 690 fishing total.

Blasted Lands -> first fish = BINGO!

Комментарий от Pypode

In just 30 minutes, 11:30pm-12:00am, I fished up 12 Winter Squid, near the farthest southern tip of Tanaris, just west of Land's End Beach, standing on a piece of wreck which was sticking up out of the water. Stunned me. Everything I read indicated day-time hours and rare catches. Also picked up 7 Raw Glossy Mightfish (if I got name right). I had tried Azshara first as suggested by a rating and got nothing. This might be a glitch but I was very happy to find it.

Went back this a.m. at 11.
Caught 9 Winter Squid - these Squid were caught within the first 15 minutes.
10 Firefin Snapper
11 Big-Mouth Clam: Zesty Clam Meat, one Iridescent Pearl
38 Raw Spotted Yellowtail
11 Stonescale Eel
13 Raw Glossy Mightfish
10 Raw Rockscale Cod
1 Box: Inlaid Mithril Cylinder

Another odd item about catching the same ocean fish in Tanaris' Dunemaul Compound pond, when I dove in to see how deep it is, no "breathing" warning popped up. By the way, it isn't deep.

Комментарий от 894261

I got it on the 7th cast in blasted land.
Go to Surwich stand on the right of the flight master (facing the sea) on the tip of the peer. (46,90)
I did it with fishing 477 +125 .

Make sure you fish in the sea. (dark water on the map)

Got the Oceanographer ach today by catching Winter Squid in The Blasted Lands. I got it at the beginning of the Red Reaches, where the 'slave murlocs' are walking around being harassed by nagas :) Got it on the 3rd catch, dont know if it was pure luck though.

Winter Squid
Just caught my Winter Squid and bagged The Oceanographer at 51, 86 in The Red Reaches at the bottom of the Blasted Lands. 20 October 2011 on an Oceanic server 11:15 P.M server time.

Overall tally from 19 casts:
7 Large Raw Mightfish
7 Darkclaw Lobster

Go to BLASTED LANDS!
(I searched everywhere for this Winter Squid, and I couldn't find a single one. I finally went to Blasted Lands and caught it on my 1st CAST !)

If you look at the map posted above for Blasted Lands; I got my Winter Squid directly EAST of the Dark Portal on the coast. (see where the 2 yellow dots are? go there!)

Комментарий от travisdead1

This wasn't made PERFECTLY clear to me. I caught a winter squid just now, off the coast of the Blasted Lands, it is Tuesday, October 25, 2011.

I thought the above posts were saying I could only catch the winter squid ON September 23. This is not true. It just has to be on or AFTER the Fall equinox, which was 23rd of September, this year, and BEFORE the Spring equinox, March 20 of 2012.

If fishing for this squid during 2012, you'll have to wait until September 22 or after and before the next spring equinox in 2013. Etc.

If you are catching lvl 5 fish Raw Rainbow Fin Albacore or Raw Slitherskin Mackerel in Azshara, then you need to move to another location, I fished just to the east of the Tower of Eldara at about (81, 32) and I caught one of these within about 5 minutes of the first cast.

I fished this guy up on the coast of the Blasted Lands. Even though there are less nodes listed there than in Swamp of Sorrows, it's a lot easier to get to simply by using a Blasted Lands portal in any main city. Fished up the Winter Squid on about my fifth cast.

I have caught a few of these before outside Feathermoon Stronghold but after 1.3.0 (I think) they aren't caught there anymore.

im 300 in fishing now with +5 rod and I havent caught any since, im down to 2 grilled squid now... Hopefully someone finds where to catch them soon.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Been fishing in Feathermoon and half the catch seems to be winter squid (with 240 fishing skill).

Anyone know where to get the grilled squid receipe?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

It's probably seasonal reading the tough luck on these posts, and maybe time-of-day sensitive. I started fishing in Tanaris only recently upon reaching lvl 40 and completing the artisan fishing quest (it's late October) and think I caught 4 or 5 while fishing for 10 Zesty clam meat (cooking quest), maybe a half hour give or take. Didn't note time of day, just took it for granted. Also caught maybe 6 stonescale eels which go for about a gold EACH. Needless to say, came back quite a few times, caught more stonescales, but no squid until tonight about 11pm EST (i think 8 server time), caught 8 squid over the next 30 minutes, but they stopped biting soon there after, and while I'm still catching many stonescales, no squid. But I'm only now paying attention and don't have it down to a science. Hope this helps...

I get lots of it in Hinterlands.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Scroll down to read some really arrogant posts! Anyway, on April 9, 2007 I was able to catch a number of these off the docks in Steamwheedle Port, Tanaris.

As many of you are probably quick to surmise, April is not winter.

So much for "doing the research!" (again, scroll down, and you'll see what I'm talking about).

At the time, my fishing skill was around 280, including buffs for pole and lures.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I think it works out that in r/l if its winter then its winter in WoW, apart from that the name of the fish tells u the season....they can still be caught off the beaches at Feathermoon Feraras...

Комментарий от Allakhazam

There seems to be some debate on this fish on when it can be caught. There are two restrictions on catching it:
1) It can only be caught in winter. As soon as spring starts, you begin to catch Raw Summer Bass.
2) It can only be caught during the day. Meaning when the sun icon is in on the mini-map.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

you wonder about the intelligence of the human race sometimes when people are complaining in may that they cannot catch "winter" squid. The name is a big hint when to catch it guys.

I have fished all over. I have never - EVER caught a single squid. I have the recipe and I've never even seen them in the AH. I have the +20 pole, the +100 bait, almost 300 skill and still, never caught one. I think something is up with these.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

These are dropping again... I fished up 70 of them when I was farming Eels in the Bay of Storms in Azshara... >400 skill required for best catch rate

Комментарий от Allakhazam

"isnt it a bit obvious wut season we are in?" No, it's not because the season seems to change as my toon walks around the world. Oh, did you mean in RL? In that case NO, it's still not becasue for half of the world it is winter! USA != The World

This is one of the dumbest ideas for fishing ever. Lets nerf fishing more by adding fish that can only be caught half the year. It's not that seasonal fish bother me, it's that they are used to make a cooking recipe for +10 Agi vs. +10 Spirit for Summer Bass. Boo! Sorry melee classes, you want that extra dodge percetage, too bad, wait till December.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I caught a dozen of these about a week ago in a one-day span, then maybe one or two since- all in Steamwheedle port.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

There seems to be a lot of speculation about when and where. Here's a few answers for those of you who can't seem to find the willpower to research.

1: Winter squid are only available in the winter.
2: It is strongly suggested that you have a fishing skill of at least 205 before attempting to catch winter squid.

And to answer those endless questions about when it is considered winter in-game, think of this:

World of Warcraft In-Game Events Calendar

The Feast of Winter Veil? That's in the winter. It is also in December. Question answered.

In the future, before spamming comments, please make some attempt to do a little research. Otherwise you just end up looking like a complete idiot to those of us who spend 3 minutes looking up all the necessary information.

There is no seasonal condition to catching these squid, chances improve with increased fishing skill.
I caught my first while leveling my fishing skill on the pier in troll's Revantusk Village/Hinterlands. Fishing skill was under 100, used basic fishing pole w/lure attachment. As skill increased past 100, chance to catch improved.
Good Luck :)

Комментарий от jfoobar

These are now catchable in classic at least as of this morning. I have been expecting this since there are so many comments from back in Vanilla days below indicating that they started being fished in late September.

I caught 7 on a 10-minute lure at about 6:10 AM server time this morning at Steamwheedle (275+100 fishing). During this 10 minutes, I did not catch a single summer bass, so I don't know if that means that there will be no overlap when both can be caught or not. Too small of a sample size.

Комментарий от swordstrike

I fished in Azshara for 1 hour with some light movement around the bay area. I did this fishing at 3pm to 4pm server time or so. This is what I fished up in that time with a little bit of travel time included. I included clam and box contents in the list (but didn't keep track of the containers just the contents)

Darkclaw lobster 76
Winter squid 46
large raw mightfish 9
raw spotted yellowtail 10
stonescale eel 5
7 pound lobster 1
zesty clam meat 17
solid blasting powder 1

This was done on Classic WoW on the Faerlina NA server

Комментарий от Topshelf

In response to an earlier post about fishing these in and around Steamweedle Port. This was my experience between the hours of 00:20 and 02:00 server time.

30mins. 300 skill +20

14 Glossy Mightfish
35 Spotted Yellowtail
10 Rockscale Cod
11 Firefin Snapper
14 Stonescale Eel

Then further south on Wavestrider Beach

30min. 300 skill +20

9 Glossy Mightfish
35 Spotted Yellowtail
13 Rockscale Cod
13 Firefin Snapper
12 Stonescale Eel

Maybe this is just anecdotal, but I have come to the conclusion that this area is NOT good for Winter Squid. I'm now heading for Bay of Storms.

Комментарий от jfoobar

Re: Bay of Strorms fishing:

If you are going to see Duke Hydro for something, by all means just fish from his island. However, if you are not going that far, the quickest way to get to the good fishing area, at least for Horde, seems to be to ride through the Ruins of El'Darath. There are several ways out onto the beach from there, the best possibly being on the northerly side of the ruins at about 40,48 or so. You can use this same path to get back as well if you do not want to burn your hearth when you are returning. If you are 60, you should be able to come and go with little to no aggro from the naga.

Here's the thing though. The map would have you believe that the entire beach is Bay of Storms but, at least for fishing, this is not actually the case. You need to get off the coast a little bit to one of the islands. The jetty at 52,49 or even the island near there that is very close to shore do not count. You can tell you are in the wrong spot if it lets you cast at 300 (or even 300+25) without telling you your fishing level is too low. If you fish from there, you are not getting the bonus droprate for winter squid (basically like fishing from Tanaris or the Hinterlands). If you have to apply a lure and are catching lots of lobsters and the blue mightfish (large raw) instead of the green (raw glossy), you are in the right place.

There is a small island out from the end of the jetty (52,49 or so) that is a short swim that I have been using and it seems to work well.

My experience on the Mankrik Classic Server on 10/9/2019

I used 2 x Аквадинамический магнит для рыбы and 10 x Яркая блесна
My pole was a Большая железная удочка +20 fishing (You get from Shellfish Traps in Desolace - 1% or so drop rate)

My fishing skill is 300, so I had 420 skill with Аквадинамический магнит для рыбы and 395 with Яркая блесна
I had a rate of around 12% "Your fish got away" messages (didn't have any with the Аквадинамический магнит для рыбы equipped)

I am alliance, and did this entire fishing session in Azshara during morning hours (around 7-9:30 am server time)
I fished entirely in Bay of Storms... (made sure I couldn't cast without the fishing lure beforehand - since the bay requires 330 to even cast)

My results:
46 Зимний кальмар - 16.37%
2 Тяжелый ящик ( 1 Твердое взрывчатое вещество and 1 Гоблинское ракетное топливо )
4 Укрепленный запертый сундук
27 Каменный угорь
129 Темноклешневый омар
1 7-фунтовый омар
19 Сырой пятнистый желтохвост
31 Крупная сырая мощь-рыба
22 Моллюск-болтун ( 22 Острое мясо моллюска , 1 Черная жемчужина , and 1 Золотая жемчужина )

Hope this helps! Good luck, and don't forget your beer!

Like Raw Nightfin, Winter Squid have certain time windows where their catch % goes up or becomes non-existent (minus Azshara, Bay of Storms being 24/7.

“ Winter Squid are seasonal, and can only be caught between the September (Autumn/Fall) and March (Spring) equinox (approximately 22 September to 20 March). Highest catch rate 12:00-18:00. Cannot be caught 00:00-06:00, except in the Bay of Storms area of Azshara. ”

I found this guys site in another comments section and it’s been both 100% accurate AND reliable up to this point.(##RESPBREAK##)6408##DELIM##CalaelenDT##DELIM##

1994 Total catches
Darkclaw Lobster : 890 / 44.6%
Winter Squid : 433 / 21.7%
Stonescale Eel : 219 / 11.0%
Big-mouth Clam : 199 / 10.0%

By rare fish I mean 7 pound lobsters, 12 pound lobsters, etc.

Maybe I'm seeing a pattern that isn't there, but...

Most of the time I go fishing for squid, during prime catch time in Bay of Storms, I average about 5-7 squid per ADFA. That is, until I start on the third stack. Around 45 squid in my bags, the rate goes WAY down, sometimes without catching even one per ADFA. I hearth, cook it up, send it to my squid-storage alt, go back, and the catch rate goes right back up.

Hope this helps others who might be frustrated.

searching this on the regular wowhead site, forwards you to the wow classic site/page... odd

anyway, i am fishing these these in a confirmed spot, at the right time, and in 120+ catches, no Winter Squid.

there was a Blue Post in September 2019 saying sesonal fish were bugged an uncatchable... i'd suspect that was never addresses

Just to kind of consolidate all the info available:

This is a seasonal catch; from 22 September to 20 March approximately
Azshara, Bay of Storms is the best place
12:00-18:00 is the best time for around 20~25% catch rate

425 total fishing skill required to avoid "Your fish got away."
Aquadynamic Fish Attractor with either Nat Pagle's Extreme Angler FC-5000 or Big Iron Fishing Pole+Enchant Gloves: Fishing ( or Arcanite Fishing Pole in phase 4 if you have the patience to get it )

I'm fishing in Azshara at 0200 server time on Mach 19th and I'm 0 for 50. I think they might be gone now for the season.

In WoW Classic, Winter Squid is officially catchable as of today. This is from fishing in the bay of storms.

On the Vek'nilash server. Spent an entire evening fishing up the whole coast of Azshara, trying to catch these. None were found :( I need them to level my cooking. I was hopeful after reading the other comments, but alas... I am empty handed.

Комментарий от Brainsburn

https://imgur.com/a/Fk6N2x2

Just ~50 catch ~40min time (and soo much Fish got away... because of my low (~170) fishing skill)

Got a nice droprate for them.

I started to fish now 09:30 server time EU. (Season of Discovery)
I've caught 3 Winter Squid's in 10m.

Comments here and Youtube videos said they are only fishable after 12:00 ST.
Has this changed? Percantage? Before I spend hours and hours befire 12:00 if the droprate is terrible before that..
