Same loot as Darkwater Clams, but in larger amounts. Contains 3-5 Succulent Clam Meat, and possibly a Northsea Pearl or Siren's Tear. The meat is primarily used for Dalaran Clam Chowder, an existing Northrend recipe which is basically a single-serving version of the Great Feast.

So far, only known to be obtained by fishing in Wintergrasp. El says that the catch rate in Wintergrasp (using PTR info) is about 35% Nettlefish, 30% Glacial Salmon, 30% Musselback Sculpin, and 5% Giant Darkwater Clams; my experience has been similar. This is a lower catch rate than for Darkwater Clams in the Frozen Sea, but the amount of Clam Meat harvested would be the same or greater in Wintergrasp, and the Wintergrasp fish are quite useful and profitable, unlike the ocean fish. Just remember to watch your back and the "Next Battle: " timer.

Hrm. Interesting. Blizzard seems to be attempting to encourage players to use the zone a bit more than just simply the PVP event and farming the elementals at the end of a battle.

That plus quite a few fishers in the zone during a battle will contribute to the respective faction's Tenacity buff.

Only thing is to find a quiet spot to fish without someone coming along and attacking you. That plus players complaining in the zone chat about people coming to farm and not assisting the fight in capturing the zone etc. Sort of like old AV all over again without the possible 'Deserter' debuff where players would come in to fish and not fight.

It seems there is a bug where the amount of clam meat yielded is sometimes more than reported (or possibly less, but I have yet to experience that). At least it stacks properly.

Commento di Vajk

Now that these (clams) are considered a 'spell' and not a 'container' there is no longer a listing of what the percentage drop is for the items inside, nor a list of WHAT is actually dropped from these clams. I see what is dropped from the clam from the post above, but what I mean is why were the items removed? If you look on a lockbox, it will still tell you what's inside and what % of time it is dropped. Why were the clams' contents removed from Wowhead?

Commento di Bovinity

I went ahead and collected 100 Giant Darkwater Clams over a weekend. These are the results:

408x Succulent Clam Meat
40x Northsea Pearls

...no Siren's Tear :(

Is getting a Siren's Tear out of a Giant Darkwater Clam really that rare or was I just unlucky? Who knows. What I know is that I will be eating a lot of chowder from now on ;)

Commento di 389812

Wintergrasp fish chances;
34% Glacial Salmon
32% Nettlefish
30% Musselback Sculpin
4% Giant Darkwater Clam

Giant Darkwater Clam containment chances;
400% Succulent Clam Meat
50% Northsea Pearl
5% Siren's Tear

So 4% chance a bite will result in receiving 4x Succulen Clam Meat, 2% chance a bite will result in receiving Northsea Pearl, and .008% chance a bite will result in receiving Siren's Tear while fishing in Wintergrasp.

From my experience of course. This is calculated with about 1,000 bites total, 5 hours of fishing.

Commento di 440737

The first two I ever opened got me 6 Succulent Clam Meat, 1 Northsea Pearl and 1 Siren's Tear.

RNG working as intended.

Commento di Labraid

I recently noticed that when opening these, it will sometimes say,

"you create: Succulent Clam Meat"
or
"you receive item: Succulent Clam Meat"

Not sure if it is supposed to change or vary but it does. Just a cute little fact I thought I'd post :D

Commento di 83450

If you're trying to get one of these for The Limnologist achievement then get comfortable. You have a 4% chance of fishing one up in Wintergrasp.

I used to hate getting these things during Wrath when I was fishing for feasts. Oh, irony. Why do you mock me so?

Commento di dewald

I was wondering if the drop rate changes with which faction has control of the area? Anyone know?

Commento di LoreMooster

I've been here for over an hour trying to get a Giant Darkwater Clam. This is absurd. It never used to take this long. No idea what is going on. I also cannot find any pools anywhere in WG. The Alliance do control the zone right now, so perhaps that does have something to do with it.

ps - I finally got ONE. So.. Faction control just doesn't matter, but the drop rate is REALLY low. I had several stacks of the other fish before one ever dropped.

Commento di 08Jacob

Agree with LoreMooster

Got mine on my 49th cast, altho it is supposed to be 4 % drop rate. So just keep fishing :-)

Commento di 696034

Just did this at Glacial Fall....far east of Wintergrasp.

In 4 mins...got 7 Nettlefish (worth keeping for cooking)
7 Glacial Salmon
2 Tattered cloth
1 GIANT DARKWATER CLAM

Fishing lvl was 410 with an Aquadynamic Fish Attractor fitted (available by fountain in Dalaran)

Commento di 488329

same, glacial falls, got in about 5 minutes :D

Commento di 481386

I found the odds to be even worse! With a sample size of 119:
36.1% Nettlefish,
34.3% Glacial Salmon,
28.6% Musselback Sculpin
and FINALLY
0.008% the damn clam.

Commento di 681446

I spent about 30 minutes fishing near the Eastspark Vehicle Workshop, then after checking here, moved up to Glacial Falls. Got it on my second cast =/

Commento di Snoopftw

Fished in Wintergrasp and after 15 unsuccessfull attempts i moved to Glacial Falls and got it on my 5th cast :)

Commento di Vjorlana

After about 10 casts I moved up to Glacial Falls, but it still took a while to finally catch one. I got:
- Nettlefish x12
- Glacial Salmon x14
- Musselback Sculpin x19
- Giant Darkwater Clam x1

However, the clam did contain a pearl :)

Commento di TaKeN

After 68 casts in Glacial Falls i got:
- Nettlefish x21
- Glacial Salmon x22
- Musselback Sculpin x24
- Giant Darkwater Clam x1
And the clam didn`t contain a pearl :(

Commento di 851994

I'm working on the Limnoligist, and now that I have caught the Giant Darkwater Clam, only 2 more fish to go.

I used WoWHead to see the map in Wintergrasp were these clams are known to spawn. I fished around for about 30 minutes or so. I ended up catching one at the bottom of the waterfall.

I have heard that the drop rate is 4% for the Giant Darkwater Clam. Here are my results:

On 65 successful casts I caught:

44.6% Nettlefish (29)
27.7% Glacial Salmon (17)
26.1% Mussleback Sculpin (17)
1.5% Giant Darkwater Clam (1*)

* I received a pearl as well with the meat

I caught well under the 4% average with a measly 1.5%. But I have bad fortune when fishing. It took me about 30+ hours to catch Old Ironjaw. The best luck I had fishing was getting all the coins (copper, silver, gold) in the Dalaran Fountain in about 3 to 3.5 hours or so.

Commento di 853565

Got it on my 72th catch on Glacial Falls.

Commento di fireboy

26 casts here in Glacial Falls.

Commento di 252771

Third cast at the bottom of Glacial Falls for me.

Commento di sithvixen

It took 11 casts on top of Glacial falls.

Commento di 812264

4th cast near glacial falls

Commento di Krix007

Glacial Falls, East of The Sunken Ring in Wintergrasp, definitely seems to be a great place to catch this item. It took less than 10 casts as some of the people above have stated.

Commento di 832107

Glacial Falls (top) - 2nd cast. I had fished 2 other primary fishing spots for 30 minutes each when I read the post about Glacial Falls. I gave it a shot, even though I figured that the only people who comment are the ones who read up first and got lucky enough to hit it right away... but since I had been here for an hour before trying Glacial Falls, and then tried it and hit right away, I figured I'd recommend trying here first.

Commento di 834319

Best place to fish these is Wintergrasp. However, you need patience to catch a Giant Darkwater Clam, and obviously you need to avoid a battle to fish here.

I fished 22 Nettlefish, 23 Glacial Salmon and 13 Musselback Sculpin before the Clam finally dropped. Clam dropped 4 Succulent Clam Meat

Commento di mentos2424

Fished up 13 Nettlefish, 3 Musselback Sculpin, 4 Glacial Salmon and finally one Giant Darkwater Clam. Approximately 4 minutes left on my 10 minute lure. Not a bad one to catch, just give it a few minutes :)

Commento di raethgir

I suggest the top of the Glacial Falls. My first try I got it.

Commento di gremz

Got it on my 2nd cast at the top of Glacial Falls in Wintergrasp just now.

Commento di 752930

Fished for a while last night, couln't find Glacier Falls and had no luck getting it. Went to do a fishing quest for the Dalaran daily, accidently happened upon Glacier Falls and fished this up twice within 7 casts.

Commento di 917901

Finally got it on my 77th cast in glacial falls. I don't think prob is anywhere near 5% reported by el, more like 1-2 %
32 Nettlefish
25 Musselback Sculpin
19 Glacial Salmon
1 Giant Darkwater Clam

525 skill with Bone Fishing pole and weather beaten hat

Commento di Daleus88

Mine was a little better. I got the giant clam in 17 cast.

Commento di risch72004

It took me 76 casts.... /sight

Commento di Dedmeett

OMFG are you kidding me? So 134 casts all around the pool above glacier falls, in Wingergrasp- NOTHING!
First cast below the falls, you guessed it, First....cast....hit...clam.

It's all random folks, KCCO!

Commento di 1016000

All horse hockey. Fished there hoping for the 4% drop rate... 40 glacial salmon, 38 musslebacks, 25 nettlefish. no clams...

Commento di Hataq

fished 1 week in wintergrasp 1 hour per day ...absolutly nothing! try with a elixir of water walking in the middle on glacial falls!

Commento di 484883

As of 7/25/2012 I fished inside WG for an hour or so and decided to try at Glacial Falls. First cast landed the stupid clam.

Commento di Cyleste

Well, tried fishing at different locations around Wintergrasp. Finally got fed up and checked here to see where others have caught them. Went where Dedmeett told me to go and second cast got!

Commento di PAWilds

Individual results may vary:

7 Glacial Salmon
11 Nettlefish
17 Musselback Sculpin
1 Giant Darkwater Clam

Commento di kierant

If you guys are looking too catch the clam, Don't go above the waterfall at the Glacial Falls, instead begin fishing below the waterfall at one of the near pond banks, Reason being (and obviously this could be pure luck) is that at the top of the waterfall 117 casts without a single clam, When I moved down the larger lake too it's left I managed too catch the clam in 4 casts.

Commento di Juranda

wintergrasp coordinates 76.46 3rd cast

Commento di stellaspike

Fished this up in the middle lake toward the center of the map. I vote that its random and relatively low drop rate even at 700 fishing.

Commento di Macmagotty

Going for the last item on my list to complete Limnologo, I fished just off the Horde base camp in Lungoinverno (24.44, 35.00) for about 10 minutes, this was my catch:

No special pole, no special bait, 700 fishing skill. The Bivalve Acquascura Gigante was caught on the 6th cast. On three earlier occasions, I cast more than 100 times without successfully catching a Clam, so it seems to me that a 4% drop-rate is not valid. However, RNG being RNG, every cast must be counted a unique instance and really has no bearing on anything before or after it.

Commento di zharshoul

not a single comment on how the icon of the clam ( a bivalve) is a snail a (gastropod)

Commento di Jaguar

Caught this, this evening at Draenor EU Horde in WG at Glacial Falls coords: 79,5 47,1. at 00:34 server time. Before the WG battle nothing happend other than the usual fish in WG. After the WG battle finished, I fished up 2 of these Clams right after each other.

Commento di Currently

Got Bivalve Acquascura Gigante on my third cast at 77.43 in Wintergrasp.

Commento di kain78

If like me you have no love for pvp you can stand at 12.37 40.35 just in cast range of the lake, takes time but I got the clam.

Commento di Fainthel

Took me about 50-70 casts. Don't give up, just luck.

Commento di NAUSEAS

Settled in to be at this for about 30 minutes....4th cast at the Warsong Camp in Wintergrasp.

Commento di UnderFire

Can be fished out of Oceano Ultra Compresso. I got one today. I'd already completed Limnologo though /shrug.

Commento di Majdus

This was really long, compared to other fishes.

Before I got my first Giant Darkwater Clam, I received:
67x Glacial Salmon
58x Musselback Sculpin
58x Nettlefish
10x Driftwood
5x Tattered Cloth
16x Weeds

So +- 215 casts for me.

Commento di flgiirl415

Caught mine on 4th cast in Wintergrasp 76.94 46.02. Thank you for everyone's comments!

Commento di plethorex

10 casts at 24,31 while the "battle" raged around me. Not another soul in Wintergrasp these days.
