Pan Tamriel Event - Fish not curated

Crab-slaughter-crane...
Caught in the second or third Saltwater hole near Morkul Stronghold during midnight. I was fishing with my wife, together with Sharp and the food was Artaeum Picked Fish Bowl and with CP for fishing, of course. So it was for a few minutes.
There is NPC fisher Atorag who gives you some clue for that.

While I have not spent hours and hours and hours fishing during the event, I can say that I have not noticed ANY increased drop of special fish in any of the zones. In fact, I think the entire time, only two (maybe three, benefit of the doubt) have shown up at all. RNGeesus does not favor me, apparently.

Lots of plain fish, though. Same as always. And two gunny sacks.

I am fishing in the right place, at the right time. The only thing is I am fishing solo, Atorag does suggest group fishing but lots of people claim to have caught it fishing on their own so that doesn't seem to be a requirement....unless it has been changed/patched.

Seems like summerset might be bugged on lake fishing spots. I looked at every single spot yesterday and not one had an active spot. Parked near a spot and logged out. Today found one active and fished until it was dry. And there’s no active spots again. I had a guildie run a section as well looking. Neither of us found another active spot. I parked by the one I fished for over 30 minutes and it never respawned

There's not supposed to be an increase in the drop rate of the special fish. The only difference is that when a special/trophy fish does drop, it's supposed to be guaranteed to be a fish you have not yet caught.

Well, that didn't work, either, then. Yesterday, finally had a streak of good RNG in Auridon - and while I did manage eventually to get the lake fish (the only bait the new acct had enough of), I also had multiples of a couple before completion (i.e. catch a special fish, catch regular fish, catch a special fish, a couple more of the first two special fish mixed in with the regular, eventually got the other two special). No biggie, they were merch fodder.

Good thing my characters don't rely on fishing to feed their families or themselves!

Auridon saltwater aren't working, I just got 5 of the green Mola in a row.
Changed zones and came back and it worked. IDK. Lol

I got all the DLC zone I had not completed done in one day, about 12 zones. I didn't have a problem with the curated fish. Bigger problem was finding an active foul water hole in Summerset.

Probably uncommon for most players, but if you start getting repeats of rare fish you’ve already caught before catching one you’re still needing, check to be sure your inventory isn’t full. Apparently if there’s no room to add a new rare fish, you can instead get a rare fish that’s already in your inventory, at least it happened to me last night. Once I freed up some inventory space, I was able to catch the rare fish I still needed.

It does not work for me in Galen, I need one last foul water fish and got 13 and 10 same green foul water fishes but not the one I am missing...

And I have plenty of space in my inventory. :-(

I think because the fishing went back to normal a few days ago. Hopefully next year we can have this event again.

Ah, thank you, I did not notice that
