This is one of three quests you can get from fishing quest starters in Pandaria.

Usually I catch the Polpo Mimetico on the coast between Krasarang Wilds and Jade Forest.

The other two rare fishes are:

Pesce Scorpione Alfa and Gurami Tigrato Volante. They are unique and you can complete the quests once per day to increase your reputation with Nat Pagle and The Anglers. By now this is the only way to make Nat Pagle your Buddy and get his special faction rewards. After giving away your rare catch of course you can try to get a new one for next days turn in.

You'll also need these 3 rare fishes for Lancialenza di Pandaria.

Build 15929: At the moment only Gurami Tigrato Volante is working. When trying the other two you only loose your quest starters :-(

Fishing outside of pools this afternoon, in Angler's Wharf (just on the li'l sandy dune right in front of where Nat Pagle is sitting in his Nat's Fishing Chair) got me the Polpo Mimetico. Starting the quest (which is just the handin), and handing it in to Nagle gave 420 rep with the Anglers, and 600 "rep" with Nat Pagle (extras for guild level 25 + human race, I'm guessing).

As it happens, it also completed my Lancialenza di Pandaria.

// EDIT:
// BTW, I had no fishing "buffs" besides having maxed out fishing to Pandarian level of 600.
// Also had another one drop abt 10 mins later, after doing Huff & Puff (just south off the coast of the Ruins of Dojan, in Krasarang Wilds).
// Like people have stated already in several postings related to these "rare" fish, each kind of rare-fish-quest can only be handed in once a day.

I fished this quest up at the following location in The Jade Forest while farming for shrimp.

Camp Gormal (37.3, 75.4)

While doing my Order of the Cloud Serpent Dailies I have fished this up twice. It was not in a pool, just in the open water. I was standing on the island directly off the shore of the Arboretum both times. (Location: 61.38, 42.07 in Jade Forest) I was wearing my Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat and had a +100 fishing buff. Good Luck!

I fished this quest up in the jade forest at 46.0 71.2 while fishing and waiting for the Ancient Jinyu Staff to spawn for the Lost & Found Achievement. This is right at the waterfall Northeast of Nectarbreeze Orchard and south of Serpent's Heart. I would rather have the staff, but it was nice to catch this while wasting time fishing and waiting for the staff to spawn.

I fished this from a pool of Reef Octopus off the coast of Jade Forest last night.

I don't know where the information about not being able to fish these from pools originated. Maybe someone just had bad luck, or didn't want to move from pool to pool. I don't know. With such a low drop rate, it's not uncommon to go hours without fishing one of these guys from open water as it is, and I would imagine it's just as rare from pools.

This can definitely come from pools. I found mine today in a Giant Mantis Shrimp Swarm to the west of the Cradle of Chi-ji. I only have 270 fishing, btw.

Caught today on a level 86 character - was still able to turn in to Nat Pagle for the gold, reputation, Lesser Charm of Good Luck, and 5 Valor Points.

I was surprised, I expected it to say I was too low level for the quest!

Fished one up on Isle of Thunder, waiting for Skyclaw to spawn. It was caught in open water.

If you're anything like me you may run into a situation where you can't remember if you've done this quest today (as it's a daily) or not, or if it was an alt who caught the Mimic Octopus. You can easily find out without spending time fishing up the Mimic Octopus just to get the "You have completed that daily quest today" message.

All you have to do is copy/paste the following into your chat log and hit enter. It will tell you if (and only if) you still need to catch one. If nothing shows up you have already turned in your Mimic Octopus today.
/run if IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(31446) ~= 1 then print("Go catch a Mimic Octopus.") end

For the Flying Tiger Gourami use
/run if IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(31443) ~= 1 then print("Go catch a Flying Tiger Gourami.") end

For the Spinefish Alpha use
/run if IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(31444) ~= 1 then print("Go catch a Spinefish Alpha.") end

Commento di Bluesius

Have I turned in all the different kinds of fish today?

Quickly modified the Nalak/Oondasta macro

/run for k, v in pairs({Flying_Tiger_Gourami = 31443, Mimic_Octopus = 31446, Spine_fishAlpha= 31444}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cff00ff00Yes\124r" or "\124cffff0000No\124r")) end

Interesting little trick I stumbled across today. After fishing one up, and accepting the quest, I managed to snag another one shortly after by killing the fishing rare that spawns in the big pool at the daily fishing area. Since I had not turned it in, I was unable to loot it. As I made my way to my "friend" Nat, the postmaster had already sent it to my mailbox. I left it there, and kept fishing. Sure enough, I managed to catch yet another one, and was able to loot it. Now I have one in the mailbox, one in my bag, and the next 2 days of the daily covered.

Commento di SimonTheSurfer

Caught one on my Level 20 in Krasarang Wilds from a Reef Octopus Swarm. When I click on it it says "You are not high enough level for that quest."

Commento di diablo0813

Pulled one of these from one of the Secret Fish bubbles from Occhiali dei Pesci Segreti, while waiting on Nalak to spawn.
