There are a total of four Tiny Carp that can be fished up in Pandaria:

The Tiny Red Carp can be fished up from Spinefish Schools. Additionally, it can be caught by casting into the Fish of the Day in Kun-Lai Summit.

Another way to obtain this pet is by fishing from open Sha-Touched water in Dread Wastes, Kun-Lai Summit, The Jade Forest (Widow's Wail only), and Townlong Steppes.

Tiny Red Carp can be found in:

 

Pools of Spinefish

 

And the 'inland' open waters of Southern Kun-Lai Summit, Townlong Steppes and Sha waters of Dread Wastes.

 

Your max fishing skill is watever you can make it with rods, hats, lures and enchants. Higher skills = less junk = better odds

 

Check with Ben of the Booming Voice for fish of the day pools

 

 

More info at El's Extreme Angling

After fishing for 1100 casts in Kun Lai Summit in Sha-Touched pools I finally gave up and moved to Townlong in the little lake by the Temple.  After only 10 minutes of fishing in open water I caught my Tiny Red Carp.  I should have listened to all the other posts and moved there first!!! *35 casts.

 

 

790 Fishing skill

I'm with Ziv.  Around 4k casts in and no red carp.  I've mostly been at the fields of Niuzao lake but also tried spinefish schools wherever they occur, the fishable side of the little lake way in the north or Townlong an fish o the day when i can.  :(  I hopeI can make some money of all the fish I'm stuffing into the guild bank.

The harder one for me. Maybe cos i had already the other 3 colors. Caught after more than 2k casts on Field of Niuzao the little lake close the istance. 711 fishing skill in open water. Carefull, seems you can catch a double and you can just delete it. So find a good place to try the last color catch.

Fished up from the lake by the Niauzo Temple in Townlong Steppes. had 735 fishing skill and took around 325ish casts; I didnt have the required 725 skill during my first session for this guy so my numbers are probably off

I've been fishing at mostly Fields of Niuzao(4 to 5k fish) from pools when it was the fish of the day as well as open waters. Also Lake of Stars schools & open waters, even Kun Lai's Sha Touched waters & NOTHING to show for it but fish fish & more fish... I take that back, I managed to get a second blue carp that I had to delete. :(

I was able to get the blue/green/white pretty fast (within an hour or two) This one takes the cake. If & when I do get it, I'm naming it The Devil.

I also got mine in the lake in Niazao Fields in open water. Had fishing skill between 790 and 820 the whole time. Fished over 2,000-2,500 casts for this one in various places that were said to contain it.

 

Hope this helps someone!

I fished this guy at the lake near Niuzao, didn't cast in schools, took about 300 casts. Also stood on the rocks in the lake to fish undisturbed.

Caught mine last night at the small lake just north of Niuzao Temple. I stood on one of the rocks in the middle of the water to avoid the mobs that pat around. Open water, 50ish casts using Kalu'ak Fishing Pole, Weather Beaten Fishing Hat and Pandaren Fishing Charm.

Did you guys get him from the salmon and redbelly pools in the lake, or just open water in the pond?

 

I clocked up around 500 casts in sha touched waters in kun lai to no avail, and im almost reaching the same amount of casts at the above pool, so im not sure if i need to be going for the pools or not atm, cant seem to find clear info about these new pets

After about 450 casts I was able to pull this guy up in the the pond/little lake in the Fields of Niuzao in Townlong Steppes.

 

I tried over 1000 casts in the Sha-Touched Waters near Binan Village in Kun-Lai Summit without success.
