Im Jadewald 41.49 kann man richtig gut farmen, sogut wie jede bubble 2 Fische und richtig oft 2 rares drin.
Hatte dort heute meinen letzten den getarnten Haidewitzka drin.

This fish is related to part 2 of the secret fish achievement series, Geheime Fische und wo sie zu finden sind.
To start this you'll need to complete part 1.

The goggles:
With the Fischfinderbrille buff applied a small fish in a bubble will spawn somewhere within 40 yards of you. If you have sound on you'll hear bubbles when it spawns then 5-10 seconds later the fish will become visible at which point you'll be able to click it. The fish can be clicked while mounted, you do not need to be in water for it to spawn and it will spawn every 25-30 seconds.

Best way to do this is find a spot that is flat and with few surrounding objects (trees, rocks, etc) and just spin your camera around until you see the bubble.

The Fish!
Each time you click the puffer you'll be given a random fish, most of the time it will be the white "junk" fish for whichever area you're in as well as the occasional grey item, with the exception of Dalaran where you'll commonly get coins usually caught from the eventide fountains.

Catchrate is quite low for many of these so expect to spend a fair amount of time for this.

I've split the fish into different catergories.

The common:
These fish can be caught anywhere at any time of the day, save these lot for last as you'll probably get most if not all of them hunting the others.
1. Getarnter Haidewitzka
2. Trugschlund
3. Unscheinbarer Katzenfisch
4. Unsichtbarer Gaukler
5. Überraschend kleiner Wal
6. Salzflosse mit Sammlerwert
7. Reisegrundel
8. Unsichtbarer Stint
If you're still missing these after you catch the others, the best places to catch these are on the floating islands, like the ones scattered around Outland Nagrand (45.9, 59.9). Stand on the edge of the island and the fish will spawn in an arc around your character, shown here in green (Dalaran island used for an example): https://i.imgur.com/vrIYGgB.jpg

The zone exclusive:
These fish can only be caught in specific zones and sometimes even in very specific areas within zones.
9. Verotteter Blutdorsch - Nazmir, Zul'Nazman.
10. Seemannsgarnfisch - Jade Forest.
11. Donnerflunder - Isle of Thunder.
12. Kirinclown - Dalaran (Broken Isles/Northrend).
13. Mechanisierte Makrele - Mechagon.
14. Monarchinnenschmaus - Nazjatar.
15. Uralte Manaflosse - Suramar. Anywhere in the Suramar city harbour. (Credit to Roguezs).
16. Sträflingsfisch - Tol Barad (PvP area). Anywhere in the zone, the bridge that connects the two islands is a great place for this one, just make sure you're on the PvP area side of it (check minimap).
17. Gezackte Fjordflosse - Howling Fjord.
18. Toter Teufelsknochen - Argus, Krokuun and Antoran Wastes. (Credit to Padwarle and Neryssa).
19. Tortollanischer Aquarianer - Drustvar, under Anyport in the underwater Tortollan bar called 'The Drunk Tank'.
20. Verdünnisierte Flunder - Neverest Pinnacle, Kun-Lai Summit. (Credit to Qaccy and Pungyo).
21. Brunnenlauerer - Mount Hyjal, in the lake under Nordassil.
22. Ertrunkener Goldfisch - Drowned Lands (46, 50) in Stormsong Valley. (Credit to Bobins666).
Note: With the exception of the Tank Deweller (Fish 19), these are confirmed locations and may not be the only location within the zones where they can be caught. For the Tortollan Tank Deweller, I was only able to catch it once I was in the very specific sub-zone (where the name changes above the minimap).

For those suffering from woeful luck with the rarer fish, like the Verdünnisierte Flunder, this was discovered by Asmundr.

To everyone who is having trouble looting some fish. You need to approach the places like Neverest and Nordrassil on foot without a flying mount (There is a small path just before the Neverest peak) Then the 100% dropchance Fishes don't bug out and are lootable once more (Thin Air Flounder and Well Lurker) Alternatively just use the goggles when standing at those places when they are off CD.

If you're still having issues, clearing your bags of all secret fish (vendor or delete them) may also fix it.

The time scheduled:
These fish can only be caught within certain times, while one is active, the other is not. Whichever fish is active at the time can be caught in any zone.
23. Scheuer Flossenblättler - Night only. 9:30pm to 8am.
24. Goldener Sonnenanbeter - Day only. 8am to 9:30pm.
Note: We're not sure on the specific day/night switch over time, the above is just based on the times we've been catching them. If you catch these outside of the posted times let me know. Make sure its server time, not your local time.

The dead:
These fish can only be caught while the player is dead. Once you're a ghost these fish can be caught in any zone. (Credit to FenixInfinito).
25. Schleiergeist
26. Zielwasserbarsch
27. Stilltreiber
28. Sakrallachs
Best place to catch these on any floating island, like the one directly behind the southern bank of Broken Isles Dalaran. Suicide by flying up and dismounting. This zone has ghost flying and if you stand on the edge of the island the fish will spawn in an arc around your character, shown here in green: https://i.imgur.com/vrIYGgB.jpg

The buffed:
29. Grüner Sägebauch - Requires the Grün angemalt buff from the Mechagon mechanocat painting station (63, 42). This can be applied by walking over the green puddle on the station or having another player throw a Mit grüner Farbe gefüllte Blase at you. (Credit to Sishrot).

The sporadic:
30. Verschobene Schrottflosse - Can be caught in the "future" version of Mechagon that Chromie sends you to for the quest Der andere Ort. Unfortunately this daily is only available sporadically. (Credit to Lacrit).

That's all folks!
Thanks to everyone who helped with the hunt :)

It's nice that they named a fish after how British people talk to each other.

Also, I found mine in Kaskala, Borean Tundra while following a tip for the Collectable Saltfin (:

Kommentar von adorawu

Any tips on this one? Last fish I need and have yet to see it though I've caught duplicates of the other commons.

Kommentar von Holyfi

I spent 90 mins in Kaskala, Borean Tundra (65.33, 44.55) I still didn't get this fish, it must be too well camouflaged!

I also use an Inky Black Potion to be able to see the bubbles better.

However, I did catch

5 x Very Tiny Whale
3 x Travelling Goby
2 x Invisible Smelt
2 x Collectable Saltfin
2 x Deceptive Maw
3 x Travelling Goby
1 x Inconspicuous Catfish
1 x Unseen Mimmic

Kommentar von Erinyx

Got this one in the Scalding Pools just south near the Frizzcrank airstrip in Borean Tundra. Easily the rarest of them all, spent a good while for this one. Not sure as some fish were bugged unlootable, but alas I chose this area due to its flat wide area, with very few mobs and doodads in the way. good luck!

Kommentar von Icetor

This might be total coincidence, was in Nagrand, and i saw someone taking halaa, so i went down and helped and immediately got Camoflaged Snark. Bears testing, but perhaps being in specific pvp areas increases chance for this to drop? Definitely could just be RNG as well.

Kommentar von Zamino

Finally found my Camouflaged Snark in Nagrand outland on a floating island at 50:30.

Kommentar von rchelly

I got this along with the Prisoner Fish while in the swamp outside the Tol Barad raid.

Kommentar von Cowbello

I went to the spawn spot of the Snark in Eastern Plaguelands (39.6 84.6), flight point Crown Guard Tower, and hung out with the ghost animals just to the side of The Lone Hunter with my back to the bank. I was convinced that the Snark's spawn point and the ghostly/camouflaged animals meant that I'd get the Camouflaged Snark within one or two drops.

It took half an hour, but I did get it and the other two common fish I was missing. Probably coincidence but it was a nice change from bare islands on Nagrand.

It wasn't a bad place to sit for a while, the fish all spawned within a reasonably close arc in front of me or on the bank behind me and didn't need any effort to find. A quick fly round every 30s or so was enough to get them all.

Kommentar von Zohna

I looted this fish in Borean Tundra around 60, 41 in the Scalding Pools.

Kommentar von Heavensgait

So what do you do with all these fish once you've caught them?

Kommentar von helvia

Found mine in Tol Barad, in the same fish bubble that gave me the Prisoner Fish

Kommentar von Aiyun

Got this at Galleon

Kommentar von Alleyena

This was the last one I needed, finally got it on a floating island in old Nagrand 69.70 after about 20 minutes.

Kommentar von Lexxe16

I spent about 7 hours looking for this fish!

Spent time on the island by Legion Dalaran but gave up eventually.

If you are ever stuck trying to get fish go to Jade Forest. You will get 2 fish per bubble! Was there 40 mins and dropped!

Happy fishing everyone!

Kommentar von Itfiggures

Many comments saying this was the last one, most difficult one and I agree, all others were a few minutes, this snarky little fish is going into hours already including several duplicates and triplicates of all the other "common" ones. Need categorized all on it's own as a true PITA. Ugh, ugh, ugh!

Kommentar von Stariknight

This was the last fish I needed and after trying a few of the other spots mentioned with no luck. I headed over to Jade Forrest - Owen's Wishing Well /way 39.30 7.45 I threw the coin into the wishing well for extra luck (every little helps!) and caught my Camouflaged Snark in about 15 minutes. I highly recommend Jade Forrest as you get two fish per bubble.

Kommentar von Melandroso

I got this one in the same bubble as Sträflingsfisch in the swamp with the crocs in Tol Barad.

Kommentar von euryale

41.49, 79.71 Jade Forest is the way to go. 2x fish per secret fish bubble. Good luck!

Kommentar von powmow

Got this where you find Flying Tiger Gourami in Krasarang Wilds. I chose this after trying a bunch of different places because they have the exact same icon, got it on my 7th fish. Coincidence? Maybe, but I spent hours at floating islands, jade forest, EPL, etc. and got it here. Who knows, maybe it will work for you!

Kommentar von RolandAllen

Kaskala is a very good source for the "common" fishes. I caught multiple Unsichtbarer Stint, Goldener Sonnenanbeter, Getarnter Haidewitzka, Reisegrundel, Trugschlund and Überraschend kleiner Wal within an hour.
There is a good spot behind the benches with good visibility to the surrounding area at 67.1 53.0

Kommentar von magicknightrhi

Found a good place in Borean Tundra that they only spawn in front of you. The really big flat iceberg south of Torp's farm at 31.05, 78.40. Be careful though as most of the area of the iceberg is in fatigue territory. Caught the Camouflaged Snark in about 20 or so bubbles here.

Kommentar von Solitaire223

Week two of Shadowlands and I have been working on this achievement. This guide was massively helpful, and found a few things to add. The personal time displacer did help me to get the Displaced Scrapfin even though chromie's daily quest was not available in Mechagon. I was having issues catching the remaining non zone specific fish. I tried borean tundra with no success. I tried Oribos and found that I was able to catch Spiritual Salmon..... So maybe we can farm the fish you used to need to be dead for in the Shadowlands afterlife.

I eventually went to Stormwind in frustration, and stood facing the lion statue near the harbor backed against the ledge. I was able to catch all of the common fish here. It took me over an hour but I was able to finish my achievement here. Good luck and thanks to those who added to the full guide.

Kommentar von Ruskenn

Fished this randomly out of a Hyper-Compressed Ocean that someone else had spawned in Oribos. Funnily enough it was the first fish that character had ever caught.

Kommentar von Jadeshade

found while waiting for sha of anger /way 53.86, 65.57

Kommentar von goldie3062

I came here to see what to do with these fish after I got them. Noticed that this one is difficult to get. This is the first one I got while doing dailies in Zereth Mortis. (5/3/2022). I just got my goggles yesterday and had put them on not expecting to even see a bubble here.

Kommentar von Zarilla

Was outside of Brennadam after picking up my Paragon box. I keep my buff running all the time now that I have it and realized I didn't actually need to be fishing to get these bubbles. This one was located along the water at /way 59,71 - Right below the small waterfall.

Kommentar von Quillierys

Hi! If anyone is doing this in Dragonflight, like I am, here's a good place to farm the anywhere fish after you've been all around the world. Go to Valdrakken and fly just a little south outside the city limits to "The Cascades". Go to 39.0, 79.8 There is a little round platform with steps. If you stand at the top of the steps in the point of the heart shape and face the people, they will 99% of the time spawn in an arc in front of you and are pretty easy to see, either against the road or the grass. In about 30m I've caught 1/2 of the anywhere rare fish (some of them multiple times). I just have a few more to go, but this seems like a great place that's easy and quick to get to. :) Happy Hunting!

Kommentar von dreamgarden

I don't know if this is a magical place or if someone put Felix Felicis in my tea, but in 15 minutes, I fished up the following.

/way #650 29.3 62.8 Highmountain Magic Circle of Secret Fish
There is an unnatural ring of natural rocks here, where I stood in the middle and cast my incantations (expletives?). There is a bit of natural clutter, so I did miss a few bubbles, but it's a small area so easy enough to cover.

2x Getarnter Haidewitzka (needed this)
2x Reisegrundel
1x Trugschlund
1x Unsichtbarer Stint (needed this)
1x Salzflosse mit Sammlerwert
1x Überraschend kleiner Wal
1x Goldener Sonnenanbeter (needed this)
16x unwanted fish

So that's 1 out of 3 is a Secret Fish? Is that crazy? I'm feeling real good, after spending several hours trying to get those three I needed from various places mentioned in wowhead posts and a few of my own. Still need the alternate reality quest to pop up to get the Scrapfin.

EDIT: Came back today and had no luck at all. When it was "lucky", I was coming back from doing Bojenangeln and Lebhafter Hochberglachs and it was around 10AM server time. Don't know what other circumstances might have been in effect to affect it. I wish I could have stayed longer to see what else fished up.

Kommentar von GrumpyHair

Got this in about 5 tries from Shipwreck Cove, High Mountain, Broken Isles while killing Grmilrml (murlocs) in the Shipwrecked Scavengers world event.

Kommentar von GrumpyHair

Northrend: Dragonblight @ 9.94, 60.09 amongst the Jadeschulterstücke des Kriegers. It took about 5 minutes before it dropped.

Kommentar von berr3tta

Went to one of the spots mentioned here in Jade Forest: top floor of the Twinspire Keep (41, 80), as people seemed to be having good luck getting the Snark there, and it was the last fish I needed for the achievement.

I can confirm that in February 2025, it still drops two fish per "bubble", however:

- In an hour of farming bubbles, I did NOT get the Snark
- In that one hour, I clicked on 130 bubbles and only 9 bubbles contained a rare fish (7% drop rate).
- If you get a rare fish, it will still drop two rares, however one is always Jade Story Fish, and one is always a random rare.
- Of the 9 rare bubbles, all contained a Jade Story Fish, and I also got Invisible Smelt (x4), Inconspicuous Catfish (x2), Collectable Saltfin (x2), and Very Tiny Whale (x1).

And the big surprise? While clicking bubbles I got the Great Sea Ray mount. I had no idea you could get it this way, and looking through the comments, someone as recently as a couple of months ago also got it in the same spot., doing the same thing.

Kommentar von dannoathome

Wowhead says it can be fished in Hillsbrad Foothills at 44.1 39.3. I go to 44.1 39.3. I catch it in 8 minutes after hours of dupes at multiple locations.

Wowhead is the GOAT.

Kommentar von BrianKindly

2x CATCH RATE (2 per bubble) in Jade Forest
/way Jade Forest 41, 79

You can also catch the "zone exclusive" Jade Story Fish, (7) other "common" fish, (2) "time scheduled" fish, and (4) "dead" fish at this location for Geheime Fische und wo sie zu finden sind.
