Not catching any fish from Ocean in Wrothgar

TwilightPrincess
Hello fellow Citizens of Tamriel!

After Wrothgar released I figured I would also get the fishing achievement for it.
Well.. That didn't go as planned!
I've been fishing in foul water in a Delve later this afternoon and all seemed fine.
When I went to fish in Ocean water however, there seemed to be a problem.

I am not getting any fish?!

Everything I do is exactly as I did before. I am using the right bait, haul in my catch at the right time, etc.
The loot window just doesn't appear. When I press 'R' to loot it all (even if I don't see it) there is no fish added to my inventory.
Some people are experiencing this too, but it seems that they were able to catch at least something sometimes, when they were alone.

Location: Up North from the Ogre Boss at the docks, went to several fishing holes there.

Reason for this post: Are you experiencing this too? Do you know what causes it? Do you know of any way to stop this from reocurring?

    Sharks ate them, big evil beasties up there hehe.

    Naw I do not know for sure, hope it gets fixed though, have caught a few fish elsewhere in Orisinium in my continuing quest (when I am not on ops) to find Perfect Roe, so miss the pre nerfs for Roe.

    A few mateys did say the same thing though, so it is not just you hehe.

    I haven't had any trouble with any fishing spots. Were you possibly using an outdated fishing addon? Dunno if that could cause a conflict but its possible!

    This happens when you are fishing in a group of more than 2 people at a node. I have had to tell people to move to different nodes because none of us are getting any fish on reel in.

    I have no idea how ZOS managed this glitch but it's ridiculous. Thankfully I've managed to get everything but the elusive purple fish in a group of 1 or 2 thus far.

    I got all fish from the ocean within an hour, even the purple one. I guess lady luck was very generous.
    But in general I had no issues in Wrothgar.
    I once had to use over 700 Baits to get a blue fish in Deshaan. But that was my only exception with not becoming a certain fish.
    The fastet catch was a lake in Craglorn. Two fishing spots gave me all green and blue fish.

    I've been back a few times, without a group this time and now it seems to be 'fixed'.
    I had no more issues and caught a fish (or sack) every time.

    When I have found a willing partner I'll go back again to see if it is bugged while in group or while fishing in a hole with more people.
