Patch 4.3.0 | Posted: November 29, 2011
This pet is obtained via open-water coastal fishing on the Darkmoon Island. See El's Extreme Anglin's guide: Catching Sea Pony for more information.
Players may only farm for this pet one week per month due to the Darkmoon Island only being accessible the first week out of every month.
The Sea Pony has a unique summoning animation in which the player's hands are enveloped with globes of water, and a splashing animation and noise is made upon the pet's spawning.

Despite its diminutive size, it is impossible to miss a sea pony cutting through the water.
Of course as soon as I posted this I got it. 311 casts.
I'm curious if the spawn rate/chances of catching a Sea Pony changed after 6.2
With the new Darkmoon Daggermaw fishing I haven't caught a single Sea Pony and I've fished more this week so far at the Darkmoon Faire than I ever remember.
I got this on my 14th cast just 40 ft to the left of the docks. Not sure it's worth the effort to try and find some special fishing location.
Just had to post cuse a friend told me to fish in front of the DMRabbit cave to have better luck catching this guy (between 10-100 casts) but after more then 100 casts there was nothing. So I checked wowhead and the cords were way off. Its actually an underwater cave about halfway up the east side of the island and out to the edge of the water shelf (when you see the fatige bar your out far enough). You'll see a large sunken ship. Its just below the ship.
Second cast. Much better rate.
I got mine in between 30-50 casts.
Fellow guildies also had varying catch totals between 50-200.
So I'd say it might even be a 1 in 300 chance.
3 casts. Pony wat?!?!
I almost pooped myself.
UPDATE: Logged at Midnight as soon as the patch came out & did all the Darkmoon Faire quests. 6 hours in, I did the Deathmatch with some friends (as a joke) and ended up winning and getting the achievement.
Went to work on this and 17 casts in, I caught it. This is after I got the Sewer Rat & Oozling drops quickly yesterday.
I'm having a good week. :) Thank you WowGods!
I've been using different characters to fish 100 of the darkmoon fish for the scavenger hunt map thing, each character gets 100 tickets to trade for a pet (pets cost 90 tickets each from the pet vendor). Anyway I didn't find any of these til my 2nd character but I was just on the beach near the guy who teleports you to the cannon. I spent extra time fishing for the pets the fishing reward merchant sells and got another one. Still have 5 pets to buy at darkmoon so I will probably get a 3rd
I love their doofy face.
Pump (once), cleansing rain when off CD, then spam either Tidal Wave or water jet. Will have some survivability against dot opponents, especially if used in conjunction with damage reducing weather such as sandstorm. Whirlpool could replace water jet in some battles if necessary. Not many good battle options for this fish out of water.
I caught mine after 76 attempts I was actually trying to collect enough of the dagger maw for the ghostshell Crab was fishing for less than an hour with the donut since my fishing was low
Fished up two in December 2015 near the Trainer on the docks.
