This is a small nitpick as I haven’t seen a topic on it yet, but nevertheless it’s important to me and im sure a few others.
Blizz what is with the nets being a 10 hour wait and if you aren’t there exactly when the time is up you get nothing…
Seriously guys is this a bug or did you really think this was a good idea. Ive set those dang things up 4 times now and was only there on time to collect ONE of the nets. Why is there not like a bucket or chest that holds this stuff til we get over there to collect and reset the nets?

Haven’t made it there yet but yeah I don’t like the sound of that. It means I can only do the nets on the weekend and only if I remember early enough in the day.

THIS is a big problem, tbh. Unless you are going to do it on an alt and park them there, set a timer and are available to log back in on time…these are completely pointless.

Sorry but I have been picking up my nets at more than 12 hours and getting a bunch of fish and some junk.
Now this is the nets near the Ruby Pools but so far picking them up after the 10 hours is fine for me.

Hmmm that makes me think it’s bigged for me then, cause I’ve only been able to loot mine once in the 4 times I’ve set them up
I get 18-20 fish every time, and I don’t loot it immediately, I don’t get to loot my morning one (the one I set in the evening around 7pm my time) until about 4-5 hours after the 10 hours are up.
Isn’t it a 10 hour wait before you can pick it up, not that you HAVE to loot it at exactly 10 hours.
That’s what I believe it is. But it appears it might be bugged for some people.

I’ve unlocked these nets I think in the renown but I haven’t figured out how to get started with these yet. Any advice?
You need to visit the Iskarra fishing gear npc in Iskarra who will give you a job to craft a net from items you can pick up around the town.
Once you unlock the net, you can then use it in the fishing hole up in the Waking Shore just behind the Ruby Pools.
Oh, maybe I don’t have the renown then, they don’t have that quest for me. Thanks for the reply!
Well seems the issue has been cleared up, I have been able to loot it now since yesterday afternoon. Whether it was a legit bug or im just an idiot, all is well in the fishing world

It was a bug, it was noted in the patch notes it was fixed. Glad your nets are working

I don’t have them yet, does your skill matter for them?
Speaking of fishing , before the weekly reset I was fishing up from the fishing pools> darkmoon cards, scrolls, coins ect made over 200k today I fish up just 13 copper coins after 6 hours, nerf me thinks?
Wait, is this what happened? Yesterday, before we logged off I said to my husband, “Oh we put those nets down yesterday evening for the first time. Let’s go check them!” They got 20 fish, but when I clicked on mine, nothing happened…
Mine may be fixed? I placed mine last night maybe 12 hours ago and i’m able to loot them now after reset
The nets don’t rely on your fishing skill at all.
Yeh it’s not very consistent. I normally return next day, sometimes the nets are there sometimes not. I don’t know what I am doing differently!
It’s not a quest you see on the mini map or with a go,den ! Above their head.
You need to speak to the fishing gear now in the village and you will see he has unlocked the net you can craft and you look for the seaweed and holy rocks you need for it.
Then you craft the net and you are free to use the first net spot.
