Heavensward Fishing Finds!

Warmwater bichir do come from smouldering wastes as a mooch from bluefish during fog/cloud weather it's possibly time dependant i've not had much luck with these at all

Straight catch with Purse Web Spider, don't bother with mooching.

Looking for Marble Oscar tried magma fishing in dravanian forelands only got crabs any help?

Marble Oscar is from the same hole as Warmwater Bichir, Purse Web Spider.

Got the Whilom Catfish and the Warmwater Bichir on Fog and Sandstorm. From 4pm (eorzea time) to 9 pm (eorzea time) i didn't Catch a single Warmwater Bichir.
From 9pm (eorzean time) to 1am (eorzean time) (fog-> Sandstorm) i catched them alot. (needed to stop at 1am cuz Duty)

So i guess the Warmwater Bichir is on a timer.

I just found my first one star fish. Casually exploring around Churning Mists I found myself at Tharl Oom Khash. A high quality Rudderfish allowed me to mooch up a Storm Chaser. The time was 8:20pm and the weather was gales, but it's too early for me to tell whether that has any relation to the fish.

Edit: Just a little bit more information. This was skyfishing so the bait I used were Red Balloons. At the time I had 397 gathering and 326 perception.

Finally finished lvl 60 quest "Carpe Diem", it was pretty annoying so I will share what I found.

Obviously from the quest text you know it is in the eddies and mooches from bullfrog. Gathering requirement seems low perception might be high not sure and you have to catch an HQ. I only ever caught them from 11 pm to 3 am. Weather was usually clear, not sure about that.

Patience buff may be required going into the catch, I caught 5 nq, some with patience up. For bait either Stonefly or Spiders work. You want to catch a HQ bullfrog. I found it was rare to straight catch this but they can be mooched from Crickets.

The spot also has dragonskin map so that is pretty useful.

Good luck as there are many other fish that mooch there.

Dravanian Squeaker

My catch stats
Location: Weston Waters (The Churning Mist)
Catch Time: 4:36 pm - 8:00 am (Weather changed)
Weather: Umbral Static

Fisher level: 54
Gathering: 380
Perception : 292


I did around 150 pulls and got the message "The Fish gets away" around 90% of the time. It sucked. I managed to pull only 4 of them.
I have tried to catch them in clear and cloudy weather with no luck.

Was someone here looking for a Letter Puffer? Can't find the post. Churning Mists, Landlord Colony (30, 25), mooch off a Sky Farie, 5:30 pm, fair skies. Had a few mooches get away before that.

So far have also found Gloaming Coral (snagging, crafting material), Cloud Rider (GC turn-in and probably also some levequest somewhere) and Blue Medusa (both of them straight catches that can also be mooched). Red Balloons for everything. One fish still unknown.
