Fishing, is it still bugged?

So I was wondering why the green and higher leveled fish you catch do not show up in your bag, is it stilled bugged?

I would catch a blue fish thinking I could fish up some gold and some achievements and then look in my bags and have only the trash white ones remaining.

    Still bugged for me too. I actually enjoy the fishing mechanic in this game, just wish I could enjoy the fishing. Hope they fix it soon.

    Agreed, it is a nice way to just chill, I have been a big fan of MMO's that have a fishing option but sadly can't make anything off the fishing in this, really think it needs to be fixed

    Yep I also Agree, been broken from start. Seems we fishermen/women are to relax to kick up enough of a fuss to get any response!

    I have put in bug reports but I guess they put the fishing on a "low priority list"
    -packs up my rod and goes else where to fish- lol

    The bug with the fishes not showing up in inventory is disappointing but I'd honestly rather ZOS spend their time fixing the major bugs. I know they'll eventually get around to fixing the issues with the fish. Hopefully they'll give us some cooking recipes. I sure would like to pan fry up some slaughterfish.

    I'm going to wait until they revamp fishing as they talked about in the road ahead. However I think they should take a look at FF XI you can say what you want about that game but they really did the fishing game mechanic interesting. It's almost as intensive as fighting a NPC.

    Wow I really didn't know about this. Very interesting. Thanks. ESO has sooooo much potential.

    i fished my way through LOTRO and caught every fish, got every trophy & title. I sneaked into areas in WOW that were WAY over my current level just to get to a fishing spot. I really want to have that kind of experience here, but the fishing seems so haphazard. Hopefully they will take pity on the fishers and fix it soon.

    yes major issues like questing, well that is a quester's major issue, and for fishers this is a major issue... my point here is if you are going to implement something into a game shouldn't it work as equally as the rest of the game.

    This^^^^^

    Why bother implementing something half-ass. Either do it right, or don't do it at all. They could have saved themselves a lot of CS tickets if they would have just left fishing out on release and waited to implement it when it was actually finished.

    A very valid opinion. A tad staunch but valid.

    I have a few ticket responses from in the early part of the game that made no sense at all. I can tell you from all that time ago "They are looking into it" and "passing it on to relevant game departments" or something like that. Well Fiddlesticks. What they said its most likely true, that's the problem they people they refer it to are on bigger issues. Its like Chinese whispers.

    Last time I fished was in beta. Untill they implement the provisioning back into fishing, there is no point in catching fish that only give 3 gold as a reward, and the rare wet gunny sack. Im glad ZoS is fixing other things before making fishing a priority again.

    And they should make typing (chatting) an option while you fish too.

    Fishing is great, theres just no point to it right now. Achievements alone isnt enough for me personally.

    Bah, should have read this thread before fishing in Kenarthi's Roost today. Caught the blue rare and was soooo excited -- until I realized I had gotten bupkis (sp?) for it. :(

    I pulled in lots of rares in the past few days. They never show up in my inventory but they are being counted against my achievements. I checked each time I pulled one in. Just wish they would show up in the inventory so we could sell them for some nice gold.

    absolutely most of them are around 150g pull a few of those in and it would be all worth it but nooo, so i will continue to flood bug reports until someone LISTENS!!!!!!!

    You're all wrong LOL green fish and above aren't saved in your inventory they only count towards the achievements. They don't disappear because they were never meant to be looted, it has been confirmed already by mods.

    then why bother putting stats on them... why bother putting fishing in the game at all if you cant keep the fish you fish up!
