Which fish do I need for fish wine?

[Quichon]

It says on the recipie a fish. Is there some fish that is a_fish or will any fish do? Also, I know that it can be purchased, that is clearly stated as is the price, but when I looked in trade supplies under Brewing Supplies I couldn't find a single reference to Fish. I found several references to Fish Wine and one to Fish Ale, but no Fish.
I am working on my brewing so I can continue in my tailoring for cured silk, but I don't fancy blowing lots of plat on failing heady koila that much. I have noticed that fish wine trivs HIGHER than heady koila and is FAR CHEAPER to produce, thus cheaper to fail at. So all I need to do is find a merchant somewhere in cab, fel, Kelethin, Kaladim, or PoK (spent much time in CB to go to fel, kel,kal) that sells the little things. I swear I checked every merchant on merchant's isle in cab and all the merchants around it, did I miss something?
Also, could the Brewing Trade Supplies please include these elusive fish?

Alright, I know I'm a newbie, but I'm totally stumped. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Self power-brewing

In answer to your question, what you need is called Fresh Fish, which is often found at fishing supply vendors. I believe there's a vendor on the South Qeynos docks who sells an unlimited supply, but that won't help you unless you've been killing a lot of gnolls. There are also two vendors listed in the baking supplies in PoK who sell an unlimited supply of Fresh Fish.

As for power-brewing for cheap, you would spend even less doing Fetid Essence - 1 fishing grub, one flask of water, no container, triv 122. Both are available in unlimited supply in PoK.

Hope that helps,

Fresh Fish

You can also buy it from the guy in the building at the docks in Halas and a guy near the lake in WC, don't have names or locs though, sorry.

As chase said, make fetid essence if you don't need to get your brewing skill above 122.

Fishing grubs can be foraged. Other than that, the only place I know you can buy them in large supply from a vendor is in Kerra Isle.

Edit: Never mind about going to Kerra Isle. That was true back in ancient history when I got my last few points to 122 using fetid essence.

With the advent of PoK, there is now a vendor who sells fishing grubs there. His name is Caden Zharik and he's located at (-344, 756) .

Thaks Guys!

This helps a ton. I know where to get fishing grubs from (I think) in cab e on merchant's isle. so I'll make fetid brew for a few years.

Thanks for the tip on the brew, I didn't see that.

one more source for fresh fish - freeport docks

Another FF location

You can buy fresh fish in Rivervale from the guy in the hut you have to go through to get to the fishing pier.

Just for info purposes. Any city with a dock will have a vendor on it that sells fresh fish. That's the easiest way to look at it.

doesnt the girl at the lake in wcommons sell fresh fish too?

As an Erudite, I wanted to bake in Erudin... so I found Bat Wings aplenty in the caster guild no prob....

Went to the dock, lotta people staring at the water, pretty hefty port... but couldn't find any fish.

There is a possibility I missed it, but I am pretty darn sure I checked all the vendors...

I ended up just porting to NRO, evac to EFP zoneline, zone to EFP, Evac to dock and buying a few feet away, but it was a bit of a hassle
