On Fishing

[solvogero]

I know, I know...you've been waiting for this for ages...See anything I'm missing? Also, does anyone else have the same issue i'm having with the strong fishing pole?

We can get a max of 475 fishing (not that that really helps us out though)

Poles:

• Fishing Pole: Fishing vendors
• Staat’s Fishing Pole: Quest
• Strong Fishing Pole: Fishing Vendors (this apparently gives no fishing bonus–at least for me)
• Darkwood Fishing Pole: Extremely low drop rate from fishing in certain zones.
• Jeweled Fishing Pole: Azeroth Fishing Dailies
• Bone Fishing Pole: Azeroth Fishing Dailies
• Arcanite Fishing Pole: Stranglethorn Fishing Contest

Fishing Lines:

• Spun Truesilver Fishing Line: Rare drop from fishing in Westfall
• High Test Eternium Fishing Line: Stranglethorn Fishing contest

Hats:

• Darkmoon Fishing Hat: Fishing on DMF
• Lucky Fishing Hat: Stranglethorn Fishing Contest
• Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat: Fishing Daily

Higher-end Lures:

• Bright Baubles: Fishing Vendors
• Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat: Fishing Daily
• Aquadynamic Fish Attractor: Fishing Vendors

Boots:

• Boots of the Bay: Stranglethorn Fishing contest

Lager:

• Captain Rumsey's Lager: Fishing pools

Here's some of the more useful Items that can be fished up (aside from the stuff above):

Pets

• Giant Sewer Rat
• Sea Pony
• Strand Crawler

Armor and Weapons

• Stendel’s Wedding band
• Dread Pirate Ring
• Numerous Off-hand weapons with and without stats

• Sea Turtle
• Weather-Beaten Journal

missed the aquadynamic fish attractor

 

[solvogero]

could add contest prices section

I love your tread title; it sounds like philosophical treatise Btw, you've got the weather-beaten hat in the lures section -- probably just a bad link.

On a side note, did you know the fishing lines and rare fish stack? You know it's taking to long for "Lucky" Fishing Hat, when you find out that sort of thing.

 

[Wih]

Think he means the extra skill you get when using a lure while wearing the WBFH.

I know, I know...you've been waiting for this for ages...

This was my favorite part.

Glad to see you got your white name, solvo! Always appreciate the work you put in to your guides and collections.

Rumsey Rum Black Label no longer gives the Stamina bonus. It is just like any other alcohol now... )-=

No, it isn't just like any other; it goes down smooth!

You're missing a lot of pets and vanity that can be fished up. Eg. Dalaran sewer rat.

Weather beaten journal.

I have been waiting!

 

[Bizarre]

Was this supposed to be a list that only F2P can get/use?
Big Iron Fishing Pole requires level 25.

cannot be fished in pools but is a reward from Bag of Shiny Things - Item - World of Warcraft
Recipe: Captain Rumsey's Lager - Item - World of Warcraft

 

[Tiger]

you should probably add the fish that can be used in cooking recipes. Eg. Deviate fish for the transformation and Sage fish for the mp5.

While I agree that it doesn't make much difference, how do we get 475?

seeeing as there is no rank that goes to 475 only 450 and 525 i think he misspelled 375.
