[Fishing] Lava Fish from Water?

[K.W. Li]

I have a question maybe a little bit silly....Is that possible to catch a Lava Fish from the water in Stygian Abyss Dungeon?

No, sorry it's Lava only for the Lava Fish. You'll need to do Fishing Quests to get a Lava Hook, but you'll get 2-3 fish with bait in the 50 casts a hook gives you, I found.

IC, but I dunno why, uo2.stratics.com have stated that from its web site: -

By the way, I have spent 4 hrs to try and got none Lava Fish there!

I've never got one fishing from Water in Underworld, and I've not tried in the Stygian Abyss except with Lava Poles. The Order Of The Dragonfish books state only Stygian Abyss, and lava;

Lava Fish:
This fish be found in the lava rivers o' the Stygian Abyss. When prepared correctly and eaten, it be increasin' yer mana when ye be injured.

So I'd say the Stratics information is incorrect.

I believe it might have been an early bug with the fish, that got fixed somewhere down the line (then again, it might still be out there and just not happened for us).
