Seasonal/Saury 2015
How to Obtain
Saury can be obtained, substituting the normal ship drop. They drop more frequently than the Hishimochi, but will require appropriate equipment to do so.
Fish can only be found in specific sortie maps; when your fleet reaches a fishing node and enters battle, the music "Saury Festival at the Naval Office" cues in.
Within the fishing zones, your fleet must battle the abyssal fleet and score an S rank (or an A rank in World 3). Upon completion, you will have a chance for saury to drop.
The saury is a raw material and by itself cannot be used for anything, you must collect several of them in order to "cook" them to make them useful.
In order to gain a higher chance of obtaining saury, you will need to use specific equipment. There is currently no official known way, though many people speculate the use of 
Sonars and 
Searchlights are needed to catch fish.
"Overfishing" can result in reduced fish gains.
Fishing Zones
Saury will drop in various fishing zone locations, some will drop within fishing zones of EO of the Naval Base Waters and the Northern Waters which will grant a high chance of gaining saury while other locations outside of EO will grant a chance to gain Saury when the new BGM cues.
