Rare Fish Completely Bugged

When attempting to loot a rare fish in any way (auto-loot or not), the loot window closes and no fish is received. Worst yet, if you're using auto-loot you receive no notification you even caught a rare fish. I've wasted 6 hours of play time on broken fishing. >.<

    Umm you probably scared it away with your shouting. Don't they show up as part of ones trophies or tasks or whatever it's called in-game? Y'know, one of the tabs on the Journal screen?
    Jesus! Did I SAY that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?

    I did fish up a Shimmerspike in Auridon, that one gave me a tick on the achievements tab, still dont know whether we're suppose to collect it or not, because I didn't. But that Pyandonean Ray mann..., that must be bugged

    From the 1.1 patch notes:

    Fishing
    Fixed several issues with Fishing Achievements, including text errors, duplicate fish, tooltip information, and making unattainable Fishing Achievements achievable.
    Fish no longer have a level requirement.
    Fish now have category icons based on their type and water source.
    High level cloth harvest nodes can now drop bugs for bait, similar to lower level nodes.
    You will no longer lose your fishing rod after you’re done fishing.

    I have no idea if this will make rare fish actually lootable to your inventory but I sure hope so!

    I have a thread with all the current known issues with fishing posted here.
    Note there are some minor fixes listed in the 1.1 patch notes from the PTS posted here.

    Only Zenithar himself knows how much gold has been lost to the unlootable rare fish. It's nice that they're finally fixing it though it seems silly it took so long.

    Thanks for all the replies guys! I have heard about PTS patch 1.1 (and 1.1.1) so hopeful all the fishing fixes in the PTS and more will make it to Live Patch 1.1! :)

    So what does one do with said fish? Put it on a wall or let it take up bank space?
