Fish Mongers are Quest NPCs introduced with the High Seas booster pack. They give the Professional Fisher Quests and can be found on the docks of:

Britain
Floating Emporium (Sea Market)
Jhelom
Moonglow
Papua
Skara Brae
Trinsic
Vesper

If you have a ship or galleon already placed in the water, the chest is supposed to appear in your hold as soon as you accept the quest. I didnt get a chance to check every port on both Trammel and Felucca sides, but thus far I have not been able to locate any Mongers anywhere other than Sea Market in Felucca. I believe because we only have the one Fish Monger, that when you accept the quest intended to have players deliver certain types of Fish to these other Fish Mongers at the various different ports, it automatically breaks the quest string and registers as if the chest was destroyed. Technically you are supposed to manually cancel the quest in order to destroy the chest in your hold so because you never recieve the chest, the quest remains in your log.

I may be wrong...but that's what I have gathered with what info was available.

*NOTE* You must join Fishermans Guild before being able to do Quests and I have done so already. So I'm sure that isnt the issue.

We are not OSI -we made the quest to fit Pandora.

Just catch the stuff & give it back.

Thinking too hard folks.

Well glad to hear it, but the quest menu dosnt instruct you on what you need to catch?  Mine just says uncommon fish?  Ive tried to quest highlight everything caught with no results?   any ideas?

I must still be over thinking it.
I've fished and fished and fished and fished some more.
I still can't figure out what kind of fish he's wanting.
Title: Re: New Fishing Quest
Post by: Horns Nigel on August 29, 2012, 12:21:46 PM
Yeah you just have to keep trying until you find the items that he wants in the quest that you get.
It takes a while, but eventually by toggling every item you catch with your paperdoll quest highlighter you will find the items he wants......
Example, the first item I found that he wanted was the fred lobsters....

ood Luck, if you still want some help with this feel free to PM me in game  Ill be happy to assist any and all........Nigel

Ok so it's 10 of one kind of fish, lobster, or crab? That makes a bit more sense than what I was thinking..so just gotta keep selecting each item til you find the type he is looking for.

I'd like some advice. I've fished up 10 Rock Crabs but can't hold all of them at the same time in order to turn in the quest(container can't hold any more weight). If there is any way around this obstacle with out having to fish up "lighter" crabs I would love it if someone would enlighten me.  I have already tried using a strength potion. It simply wasn't enough extra umph. 

I was also wondering if anyone has done the quest more than a couple times.  If so, did you get anything other than a quest to fish up crabs of some sort?

Thanks in advance for any help/replies. :)

Are you sure that the Rock Crabs are the selected item in the quest?
If yes and weight is the issue then I'm sorry but I don't have any advice for that?

I'm on my third quest and so far its just been lobsters, I don't see any reason why it couldn't be some of the fish as well, however it will have to be normal fish that don't weigh a lot I guess?.......Nigel

Thanks for the response.  Yes I had to toggle quest item to know what exactly I was fishing for.  It's definitely Rock Crabs.

Is there any way to increase how much a backpack holds besides increasing your strength with strength potions?

Sorry, no not that i know of?  How much over weight are you?
Title: Re: New Fishing Quest
Post by: Starnix on August 29, 2012, 07:47:56 PM
I am quite a bit "overweight"(lol!) One of my crabs is 166 stones! I'm thinking I'll have to fish until I find "skinnier" crabs. :)

Uhm, wouldn't it be better if the NPC just would tell you what kind of fish he wants you to bring him? Fishing for hours and use trial by error is not really fun... :)

Can't you just give them to Shmee one by one?
Title: Re: New Fishing Quest
Post by: Horns Nigel on August 30, 2012, 07:12:41 PM
I haven't tried to give them to Capt. Smee one at a time?  But i highly doubt that it will work, all quests need to be completed before you can just hand anything over.....Nigel

You have to have all the quest items in your pack in order to turn in the quest.  Still trying to find skinny crabs!

Oh..and this morning I was banned from chat for saying Osiredon. :)

Eh it's got a few kinks but overall is fairly easy to do once you get the hang of it. I have found that if you fish on a galleon and throw the rejects on the deck, by the time you find the quest fish and fish up 10...hand em in and most likely your next quest item will be flopping around on the deck somewhere.

Considering the quest itself is supposed to involve sailing all over the place to other ports and not being able to dock your ship without cancelling the quest...I'd say having to find the quest item is a fair trade in for the time you would have spent doing all that.

Post by: Horns Nigel on August 31, 2012, 12:12:06 PM
Yeah, dont say"rock" crabs either  hehe
I have been doing all of mine from the docks and with great success, not sure docking the boat applies on this shard?  I know it says it on the website, but as the King said don't over think this, this isn't OSI....Nigel

Stay on a boat with a lot of Beetles :)

I only fished in the last 3 day - get a lot of chance to call charybdis (3x  5baituses)  and just only once worked  :(
On every new coordinates i waste my uses for fish or something :((

If you happen to find yourself going through all your fish, crabs, and lobsters with no luck finding the quest item...there is a possibility your item may be the Pike. For some reason when you fish up a Pike you get the actual weapon rather than the fish :)
Title: Re: New Fishing Quest
Post by: Horns Nigel on September 13, 2012, 09:35:51 AM
Yes, I have been collecting those pikes just in case they turn up on one of my future quests,  Ty.......Nigel

fyi if you use macro to move fish, the quest fish will not move thus revealing itself.

Post by: Johana on November 24, 2016, 11:36:14 AM
When using the dialog menus for the fishing quest giver, chose the continue button (not accept) to find out what fish they want before you accept the quest.  This should take the mystery out of what you need for the quest.  To do this quest with any kind or proficiency consider a resource box.  Hope this helps.
