Can be caught only during summer months

评论来自 36400

I have caught this and the winter fish during the very same month.
So not to sure about that there is a specific season to capture them.

评论来自 139568

Actually caught a few today, so this may be a Spring catch, in Feralas.

评论来自 zemulous

But mid-January IS a good time to catch Winter Squid. A fine time to catch 7 of them or more.
Also, it is a poor time to be fishing for Summer Bass, thus why you are "still waiting" on them. The lure isn't going to help.

评论来自 338464

I wonder if March 21st will begin the raw summer bass season, currently lures are not helping..

I caught 3 today off the dock in Revantusk Village (176 fishing skill + 75 bobber)

I'm sorry, but 300 to avoid getaways cannot be correct. I'm at 358 and about 8 in 10 are getting away.

Just been fishing in Azshara in The Bay of Storms for about 2hours and caught 36 of these. Its now april and i caught no winter fish suggesting that the seasonal thing still applies.

(Also caught 28 large raw mightfish and 5stacks of darkclaw lobster plus a few other bits of rubbish)

As of 17/07/09 No sea bass to be seen in azshara. Only stonescale eel, rockscale cod, afew mightfish and a few firefin snapper

As of today, 7/18/09, I'm still fishing these bad boys up. :)

评论来自 440363

Why are these worth so much, given that the food buff they are a reagent for is not very impressive? Is it because they are needed to level cooking or something?

评论来自 cyberdreck

the answer is yes they are used primarily to level cooking. i have many toons that needed either squid or bass to get high enough to do bear flank.

i think the above postings that this fish is catchable until the end of december may be inaccurate. according to el's anglin', the fish is only catchable until september...i'm not sure which to believe...however i have fished and fished for one and have only gotten winter squid. has anyone caught one since 4.0.3a hit? I'd like to get as many fish ticked off my oceanographer/limnologist achievements.....

评论来自 297936

I ticketed this after I had caught about 100 winter squid in the various locations that those fish (and the summer bass) are known to be caught. I got the following weird response:

These items are currently still in-gam at the moment. Though keep in mind random is sadly random. Though they should indeed stil be obtainable. You may wish to try moving to different locations as someone might be scaring them away ^_^.

So summer bass don't like Deathwing? Maybe they'll be fishable in new zones?

评论来自 713125

I ticketed this too and got the following response from GM:

"The summer bass cannot be cought right now , is is only available during the summer months :)"

评论来自 angelzhizni

The last few guys that posted on here should really do a little homework before posting so we are not making GM waits even longer by wasting their time with our silly questions. As the post ALREADY states, and as is implied by the name, summer bass can only be caught during the summer months while winter squid is only caught during the winter months. Cataclysm was released in the winter, so it makes sense that you cannot catch summer bass for the achievement yet..

评论来自 565816

I'd get my dander up about this "stupid GM bothering" a lot more if there were actual in-game seasons reflecting IRL seasons. The closest you get is the holidays which add blinky lights or maypoles but zones don't change at all. Seasons are also used to denote quality, hence phrases like, "Now is the winter of our discontent." So maybe this is the "raw best bass!" :-P

No wait, I know, some places have different seasons ala Romance of the Three Kingdoms II where spring starts on Jan 1st and it's Summer where they are!

March 20th, 2011, 6:30 A.M. Server Time. After 6.5 hours of fishing, I am still only catching Winter Squid, and even them, few and far between. I am beginning to seriously doubt the claims that Summer Bass can be caught starting March 20th. I never really understood what credence I should have given to those claims anyway. I will keep trying every day, regardless. In the mean time I will bank my Winter Squid and mark them up big time to sell in August. I remember them being a fairly critical cooking leveling item at one time.

评论来自 eilensar

Well here it is March 20th and still no fish. They say best times are from 12-18. Only thing I can guess on is that either that it "Blizz" time (Pacific Standard Time - PST) or after the next server reset. Have 2 hours until Blizz hits noon, so will check again then...

Edit: It is now after 23:21 UTC and still no fish. As I'm on an EST server will try again at midnight....

Edit 2: It is after Midnight on server, just caught one..... So it is March 21, 2011 at midnight and not on the 20th..

Equinox is really not until 23:21 UTC--the exact time the sun is over the earth's equator. This an astronomical event, not a hallmark one. :)

Still, that doesn't mean that Blizzard coded it that way. It would be cool if they did though :)

Make sure you've flown out over the water a ways and are actually in the area of 'Steamwheedle Port'. Finding a landing spot out there may be tricky (Even stranded goblins charge by the minute, yeesh) but you'll get your Bass.

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.

评论来自 Nymphetaminexx

After fishing in Bay of Storms for what seemed like hours, I was only receiving Rainbowfin Albacore, Slitherskin Mackarel, and other low leveled fish. I went ahead and flew down to Swamp of Sorrows and got my Raw Summer Bass on the second cast. Remember, if you are receiving Darkclaw lobsters when you fish, you are in the right area. If you are fishing up albacore and other low-levelled stuff, it is almost impossible to loot the bass.

Tried in Blasted Lands - The Tainted Forest. It's on the shore near Surwich flight point. 438 casts, several days after work; no way to catch Raw Summer Bass there.

Then I moved to Blasted Lands - Shattershore. Got the Raw Summer Bass from 6-th cast.

Maybe worth to mention that those two points gave totally different kinds of fish.

评论来自 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!

Shattershore in Blasted Lands is your one stop shop for Summer Bass, Big Mouth Clams, Large Raw Mightfish, Stonescale Eels (pools and open water), and Darkclaw Lobsters.

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.

EDIT: I don't know why I have negative ratings on my other posts. I have been trying to be helpful. Maybe it's because I didn't keep my word and fish on the 22nd/23rd. Sorry about that guys. Anyways, I just fished exactly at 75.6, 57.9 in blased lands on Sep 24 at 3:52pm. I caught a winter squid first cast. I fished for 10 minutes later and this is what I caught:

7 Winter Squid (27%)
1 Stonescale Eel (4%)
13 Darkclaw Lobster (50%)
3 Big Mouth Clam (11%)
1 Large Raw Mightfish (4%)
1 Reinforced Locked Chest (4%)

This was only for 10 minutes and are rough statistics. I caught ZERO Raw Summer Bass. I didn't confirm this on the 22nd or 23rd but it looks like my information was in fact correct. I got the Oceanographer achievement, and I'm sorry to all who read my post too late. I tried to warn you. Guess you'll have to wait for another 6 months for the summer bass =( Good luck to all on the achievement!

评论来自 741689

I can confirm it's the same for us here on WoW Europe. El's Angling dates for Summer Bass and Winter Squid are the same on both sides of the Atlantic. I can't comment on servers in the Southern Hemisphere, but perhaps a player from Australia or NZ could confirm that for us?

I'm not convinced El's have all the Catacysm changes fully updated yet, as I've had a few things go slightly wrong where zones have changed level, but I'm sure that will be fixed as soon as people post their new findings. Despite that, the site remains an excellent resource, and is still my first port of call for all fishing knowledge.

Oh, man, am I lucky I started these achieves today!

Just caught a raw summer bass at 1:13 AM ST (3:13 AM Central) in Blasted Lands on Shattershore.

Had the +5 hat with a +30 pole and a +100 lure, and caught it after 23 casts. I was thinking I might be one day too late, but it popped up just after I mentioned it to an achieve-hunting guildmate of mine.

From what I read, you will need no-junk skill to catch this fish at night, and it may take longer than if you fish for it between noon and dusk.

I would assume my catching it at this time means they'll be there until midnight this evening.

Please be aware for those on Oceanic servers, it appears that it must be 20th March in the US before you can catch this fish as I have just tried now when the server time reads 8:48am (This equals 2:48pm 19th March PDT).

Hope this helps

The reason u cant catch Summer Bass yet is because it's still monday at Hawaii (U.S), thats my best bet

Edit: Still catching Winter Squid

评论来自 964799

Just spoke to a GM regarding times for the Summer Bass to start spawning.

He couldn't give me an exact reply but did say " Well as far as I can see it should be soon "

I asked if a server restart was needed and his reply was along the lines of " But frankly, we dont do the time stamp thing, so you will have to give it a shot when you think the time is right "

Surely they must be coded in some way as they only spawn in Spring / Summer.

He finished by saying " When in doubt, tomorrow at the time which the Summer Bass is turned on wont matter anymore I guess "

Going off his last comment I'm just gonna wait till tomorrow ;)

still winter squid. :(

评论来自 869130

Just confirmed by a GM that summer bass will be caught after tomorrows server reset which will be the 21rd of march 2012 :) People say the 20th because 20th of last year was a server reset.
Edit: In Europe server reset is on wednesdays :)

评论来自 838112

They also say the 20th because guess what, the 20th is the official first day of spring. btw, today was a server reset too.

评论来自 bateh

Opened a ticket, asking why Blizzard is not aware that the rest of the world has now seen Spring Equinox, while WoW didn't. :P

评论来自 838112

One of the follow up comments a few entries down might be the answer.

Apparently Europe has its resets on Wednesdays typically.

For this particular issue, its probably not a big deal. However they probably have a policy that ALL seasonal changes must occur in ALL realms the same day. This would ensure that NEW achieves dont go server first to one region vs another.

Again, probably not an issue with this one, but probably just a blanket policy.

With the ~5 hr time difference, i'd say that noon eastern north america Wednesday would be a safe time to check again.

Hopefully in one day the summer bass will rise up and conquer the winter squid occupation of their sacred lands. Down with wintersquidopia! Long live summerbassville!

As of 3:30pm (CDT) Winter Squid is still around, guess I'll be checking again tomorrow to see if I can get my Oceanographer achievement.

评论来自 Rebexii

The time for summer bass will have started soon, it seems late on eu servers. So this is your last chance to catch a winter squid or you'll have to wait 6months for the achievement. (Check the time and date this is posted before you say 'I can't catch winter squid')

Just caught this in Blasted Lands, standing in the rowboat that is anchored on the south side of the inlet near Surwich. That was the last thing I needed for the achievement -- you may all now address me as "Oceanographer Wakinyan," thank you very much. ;)

You can also fish them in Jaguero Isle

评论来自 restopresto

Since most of these posts are a little dated, fished this evening for a few. Out of 20 casts, i caught three. I am maxed out fishing and all others were decent catches for the area. AVOID fishing out of schools people. You can't catch anything except whats in the school. I hung around the two furthest north east points and had decent enough luck.

Happy anglin' !

评论来自 Rulefourteen

Just to clarify for anyone who was confused about whether or not these are caught in schools or open water, they are open water. Don't get discouraged if you don't get one on the first, second or even third try. In the five minutes I fished along the shore of the Blasted Lands I caught 2 Darkclaw Lobster and 1 Raw Summer Bass. Remember the open season for Summer Bass is 3/20-9/22. :) Good luck!

评论来自 PAWilds

Blasted lands along the shore. Not in pools. Can only be caught from 3/20 - 9/22

Individual results may vary:
9 Darkclaw Lobster
2 Stonescale Eel
2 Large Raw Mightfish
1 Raw Summer Bass

Just wanted to quick update this, I just got a Raw Summer Bass approximately 1935, 22nd september 2012 (Kazzak, EU) off the shore of Blasted lands. Thank god I remembered, it was the only one I was missing and I have been waiting to get it. Just forgot...

This fish should now be available (3/20/2013), but I'm still getting Winter Squid in the Blasted Lands. As soon as I get a Summer Bass, I'll never need to look at that orange-red wasteland ever again...hopefully.

Still getting Winter Squid as of ~7:30pm server time.

Qiraji Guardlings not spawning yet as well.

What's going on this year?

Edit: was fishing off the coast in Blasted Lands if that makes any difference.

Caught summer bass 3 AM Realm time!

评论来自 dchriest25

Finally caught my Summer Bass 03/21/13 03:15 server time and got my Oceanographer
achievement.

Well actually, I'd caught the majority of all those fish (for The Limnologist too) but some
expansion or patch in the past reset them all (again). I remember going around some
time during WotLK and catching most of the fish for the achievement back then but got
distracted or bored and never finished. Did the same thing in Cata too lol, never finished.
SO... A couple days ago I decided to finally get it over with and much to my dismay I'd
lost all credit for catching any of the fish I'd caught earlier. Apparently your Achievement
Progress gets wiped after a patch or expansion. Lucky for me the Winter Squid were
still dropping, and a few days later it changed to Summer Bass so I got it all done in a
few day's time.

Oh well. As achievements go this wasn't very difficult to do over. = \

You will need 290 fishing skill to catch this fish (wowwiki info).

Edit: Just caught it with 283 total skill... So you probably need just 270-280 skill.

评论来自 JasperKazai

Be sure you are fishing in and around the areas marked on the map here. I decided to fish from the farthest west boat at Surwich in the Blasted Lands (which is outside of the range of the pins on the map) and did not catch any bass for a good 30 minutes. I then changed position into the range of the pins and caught 3 bass within 4 minutes. So don't be like me and waste your time.

This year judging by the callendar, it will go up to 23 of September, now it's 00:05 and got one.

If you missed out on this, they should be fishable again around March 20th, 2016. Last one I need, since somehow the hundreds I know I've fished in the past never got counted. :p

评论来自 cnorthfield2000

The next scheduled equinox for Spring is scheduled for March 20, 2017 at 10:28 AM UTC or 2:28 AM PST. Since March 20th is a Monday in 2017, odds are that Summer Bass will be available after the maintenance/reset on March 21st. Based on past events, the Fall equinox is scheduled for September 22, 2017 at 8:02 PM UTC or 12:02 PM PST. September 22 is a Friday in 2017. Therefore, safe to assume that the Summer Bass will not be available after Tuesday, September 26.

However, it is important to note that Blizz may not allow the fish to be fished up after the 22nd of September. If this is the case, you would need to wait until March 20, 2018 since reset would happen on that same day!

The dates and times above were taken from the Wikipedia page for Equinox at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox

If you're after a 新鲜的夏日鲈鱼 to complete 海洋研究者, don't waste your time - leave it until server reset tomorrow, Wednesday 21st March 2018.

After fifteen casts at fishing level 1200, I just caught a 冬鱿鱼.

On the plus side, if you haven't fished up a 冬鱿鱼 yet, go grab one, or it will be another six months before you can complete 海洋研究者!

The Summer Bass can only be found during spring and summer, so I've been waiting all winter to finally complete the Oceanographer achievement.

I caught mine on the 6th cast after fishing a Stonescale Eel swarm in Misty Reed Strand, Swamp of Sorrows (Eastern Kingdoms) on the shore, southeast of Shadowmurk at 90.6, 43.7. I did a quick fly-over to see if there were any Summer Bass schools marked on my mini map, but didn't see any. If you're fishing in Swamp of Sorrows, just look for the Stonescale Eels marked on your mini map and the Summer Bass should be close by.

Could not catch any in Azshara but found lots in Tanaris. This was in August.

评论来自 Lungtau

The spring equinox passed about ten hours ago (yes, after adjusting for local time). In Swamp of Sorrows, several locations, I pulled up two stacks of 冬鱿鱼 . No 新鲜的夏日鲈鱼 .

I was Zandalari fishing 175+53 ( 磨利的海象人鱼叉纳特的饮酒帽海湾渔靴幽光鱼竿拉姆瑟船长的特酿啤酒拖网图腾 ) . I gave the 隐秘之鱼护目镜 a try, as well, but only half-heartedly.

Given it's the end of the season for winter squid and they were abundant, I'm going to guess the odds model for both those and Raw Summer Bass is like a linear ramp, with odds increasing throughout the season as the new population matures.

I'd guess I cast about 150-200 times, so that's not really enough to beat the odds. Just idling while lunch was in the oven. But hey, I finally got a rare 22磅重的龙虾 . So it was still a worthwhile outing :)

评论来自 Shealle

I didn't see too many recent comments confirming Summer Bass in Blasted Lands area. Confirmed today I was able to fish up my last remaining fish (~11 catches) for the Oceanographer. With being gone for so long, and level squishes, I didn't want to waste alot of time fishing in the wrong zones. Thanks to those who mentioned after Cataclysm a few locations were no longer valid.

Coords:61.4, 85.4 (south of The Red Reaches on map).

Wishing you all the best on your fishing efforts.

first i tried tanaris, not a single summer bass in ~300 catches (classic fishing skill level ~270-310) - then switched to swamp of sorrows and got it in the third cast. i do NOT recommend fishing this bad boi in tanaris.
