Speak to Ju, then click on the racks/pole on his left and right to tug them. A little squid will come up and attack with each tug. Mine bugged out after two and I abandoned/reaccepted the quest, but after I tugged one fishing pole it autocompleted.

There is a fishing pole set up on each side of Master Angler Ju Lien at the edge of the water on some rocks. I had to click on each pole twice and kill the catch that came up out of the water as a result. After 4 clicks and kills, the quest completed.

Description

I never thought I'd see the day, but for the first time since... well, EVER, Master Angler Ju Lien asked for some help with his lines. Apparently the sea is going crazy today and he can't keep up. See if you can give him a hand. He's fishing just south of here.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • On the CrabDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    I just got word that a string of pots we dropped this morning hit it BIG. We're on the crab! Problem is, the rips are getting stronger and we lost track of some of the pots. They're just sitting out there, filled with spiky blue GOLD! I need you back out there.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Mariner's RevengeDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    I'm not gonna sit in a damn rocking chair while my crew gets devoured by a leviathan! Come on, let's get to the dock and launch a dinghy. I got a special one set up just for this kind of situation. My own little Mist-Hopper Jr. We'll give that thing a case of harpoon fever.
