Nothing but used bait from fishing holes.

I decided to do some fishing in Auridon, I'm just south of the Banished Cells dungeon at a body of water that could either be a lake or ocean. ( It looks like a lake but it is attached to the ocean) and there are two fishing holes relatively close to each other. I used all four main types of bait here, first I tried guts thinking it's a lake, the worms when guts failed, then crawlers and insects. All four bait types got me used bait, none have caught anything other than used bait so I am unable to identify the water type by catching a generic fish. I did catch a blue house item but other than that it's all been used bait. Is this a bug or intentionally done?

    There are different types of baits for different waters. I cant remember them, but there is a book ingame (fishing in tamriel) or google it. With the right bait you will always fish something

    Simple, there's one of two possabilities

    1: you did not take the "used bait" when it came up, as in, instead of looting it you just closed the loot window, if you do that, then the same "used bait" will keep comming up again and again until you take it, regardless of what bait you switch to/use

    2: you did take the used bait and it's a bugged out fishing hole

    I get the feeling op tried to "toss it back" and kept getting the same used bait.

    There is a Lake area tucked against a cliff side, everything else in that area is Ocean. So take the used bait, destroy it, and go back to fishing.

    Lake uses guts or minnows
    Ocean uses worms or chubs
    River uses insect parts or shad
    Foul uses crawlers or fish roe

    I did take the used bait, it's how I got the one and only thing I did catch that was the blue house item.

    Normally I play on PS4 where making a captured video is insanely easy, but this is happening on Xbox one, which I'm still new to and capturing a video seems to be more tricky, not to mention the long upload times to my only option of Onedrive rather than Twitter or YouTube like PS4 does.

    There are a few 'bugged' fishing holes across Tamiel. Just move on to another hole.
