I put together a YouTube Video for tips on catching this blasted fish. I retread a lot of the stuff that everyone already knows but tossed in a few of my own suggestions.

Nice vid, I dont want to encourage you, but there are way more diabolic fish outside, which deserve the sephiroth theme more than titanic sawfish ;D
very good starting guide for everyone who is crazy enough to try to master the real endgame

First try at this, I didn't have the proper melds to get gathering up high enough and failed. Once I fixed myself, I arrived a bit early and caught HQ bait around 7am. Instead of mooching right away, I held it until 9am. Shortly after 9am, I cast mooch and bam, first cast catch.
Trying to get this fish as a Lv60 Fisher with 494 Gathering and 443 Perception... and I cannot get this fish. Not to mention the wait I have to endure because of the cloudy weather.
I keep getting the Silver Shark when I get the mooch chain going, I really hate this RNG crud. Sadly there's none on the MB on my server so I'm stuck trying to catch it on my own and even with my high stats I keep having the "fish gets away" message at the end which is ridiculous. I would think this would be easier at Lv60 with such stats, but nope.
I like fishing, but I hate this part of it the most as I'm trying to complete the Quest for it. Doesn't help that the weather works against you either... bloody had clear skies up to 8am and then it switches to fog.
I give up.

are you saying you are waiting FOR cloudy weather or you are waiting for another weather because it's always cloudy? c.c,, because, you can't catch the titanic sawfish while cloudy weather.
but this is really one of the easier fish. especially at lvl 60 with HQ buffs.
I said I had to WAIT because of the cloudy weather, mean if the time is correct but the weather isn't I have to wait even LONGER to get the right weather. I hate this part of the fishing... the RNG is bad enough. That's why I like Miner and Botaonist the most at least you have control over what you're going for instead of praying that you get the item you want from RNG.
just wait for the next quest, its way more funI said I had to WAIT because of the cloudy weather, mean if the time is correct but the weather isn't I have to wait even LONGER to get the right weather.

lol yeah, titanic sawfish looks like a cakewalk against feast of feamine xD got the whole catch "1000 times in lvl 50 fishing points in black shroud" just while i was hunting namitaro. and that's one of the easier fish in this quest xD
fishing is all RNG. i have seen a dozen people ranting about the sawfish. my advise: it only gets worse. if you hate fishing the sawfish the fisher is probably not the class for you.
I like to fish for fun, not for challenge. I like to do something relaxing for a bit and get some items for my Crafting classes to use. I find this ridiculous even with Level 60 gear, skills, and stats. I thought it would be a little easier to do with high stats and skills.
I'm going to keep at it still, I will hook this fish one way or another... and I snagged another Pirate's Bane fish while typing this. Why?
Sigh, back to waiting again.
