As a Level 80, I find it's most efficient to camp somewhere peaceful and relaxing (meaning devoid of pesky Alliance to interrupt me) and queue for Battlegrounds or Heroics. Since either of these take anywhere between 10 and 20 minutes to pop, I can get a decent session of fishing in between, without having the boredom factor drive me insane.

fishing is actually quite relaxing ... when ever im bent out of shape because of some jerks-real life and in game-i just go fishing.

usually away from some of the horde who seem to like to kill me just because im a clothie

Kommentar von 614243

i like to fish in the middle of the sea using shaman Water walking xd

Chance to get skill on each sucesful ctatch:
100 /
"Skill" - your actual unmodified fishing skill (without rules, enchant, fishing equipment or other +skill things)

edit: fixed, yes I meant it

Kommentar von kkaman

i suggest if you are a fisher, untill you have the whole 1000 fish achievement, pick up everything that drops, thats right everything.
also, if you want to get 450 fishing and wouldnt mind a little money too, go into wailing caverns and just outside the portal theres a big pond thing, just sit there for hours fishing, because dropped from there are uncooked deviate fish, if you can make them into savory deviate delight, then great! cook them and add a 10g for each stack, if not then just either sell them as that, or get a cook who has the very rare savory deviate recipe and get them to cook them all, i suggest before you go there, bank everything apart from a hearth stone, because, depending on your inventory size you will need a bit more than 1 inventory full, so in order to not have to run around, i suggest anything as big as a frostweave bag or bigger, 4 of them and you wont have to come back. Good luck!

Does anyone know if, at level 450, there is any benefit at all to fishing buffs like the +30 Kalu'ak pole and the Fishing hats etc? I currently use them more out of habit than anything but it could save me hassle if it wasn't needed.

Kommentar von 122347

There used to be enchants, which increased fishing skill (like gatherer enchant on gloves - hope I remembered name well). Couldn't find any info about them in the fishing sections. Do You have any info bout them? I missed 1,5 years of playing WoW so I missed quite a lot happenings. = )
thanks :)

Kommentar von 223389

It is my understanding that as of patch 3.3, your fishing skill has no affect on your chance / speed of catching fish. It is only for items that require a certain skill level to use (poles, etc).

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Kommentar von imbam4g3

While leveling an alt's fishing skill from 1 to 75, I found that it is more profitable to fish without a lure in pools that are above your skill. The grey items you catch this way vendor for more than actual fish.

Kommentar von 218832

I am just starting out fishing... one question! How do I use the pole!

Kommentar von 704623

If You do the Fontana coins achievments.. this will skill You up to 450 :o)

Anybody know where the Illustrious Grand Master trainer will be?

For those of you who are curious about how many fish it will take to go from 1-525 here's some help.

1-101 (100 total)
101-126 (50 total)
126-151 (75 total)
151-176 (100 total)
176-201 (125 total)
201-226 (150 total)
226-251 (175 total)
251-276 (200 total)
276-301 (225 total)
301-326 (250 total)
326-351 (275 total)
351-376 (300 total)
376-401 (325 total)
401-426 (350 total)
426-451 (375 total)
451-476 (400 total)
476-501 (425 total)
501-525 (416 total)

Which sums up to a grand total of 4316 fish. This is a preety rouch estimate due to decimal issues but anywhere between 4300 and 4500 is what you should be expecting.

Kommentar von 311352

Currently there is bug for fishing in Uldum. Occasionly it will make you in combat right after you caught a fish.

Perhaps it shows the attitude of fishing from Blizzard.
"Fishing, combat between people and fish."

Kommentar von 81639

The most efficient way of leveling fishing must be what I did back in TBC, offer a broke friend (preferably one who is not playing WoW because they know...) a few 6-packs of the strongest beer you can find, have him get one each time he levels 15 skillpoints. This will:

1: Make the person enough affected by the alcohol by 100 skillpoints that he/she actually can withstand the boredom.
2: After this he/she will probably want more til they pass out, switch to a slightly lighter beer to keep them awake, mix with a glass of water in between every beer and keep doing that til' you hit the skillpoint you agreed upon. Some money always helps too. And music. Talking too. ANYTHING. Have a few beers yourself aswell, since watching this is painful for both mind and soul.

Kommentar von 142762

Is there anyway to use a macro that automatically casts 'Fishing' when you loot the previous fish?

Kommentar von 54591

Thank goodness archeology came along - it makes fishing seem much more exciting and faster to develop by contrast.

Kommentar von 782960

Today i hit 525.....from 500 to 525 took 250 fish, 10 per point. Obviously WoW has nerfed fishing. Throw the old formula away.

Kommentar von 561234

Is there anyway to somehow fish using only the keyboard?

I originally thought every aspect of this game could be done with no mouse but I guess not.

Kommentar von 307263

Might wanna update that all Secondary professions are found in skills which is hot keyed with "k"

Kommentar von 593206

Don't forget fishing goes with Alchemy as well as cooking. :)

Kommentar von 593206

Can you do more than one fishing daily a day? ( on horde side) My boyfriend, on an ally toon, was able to do 4-5 a day. I've been able to do only one. Does it depend on your fishing level?

Kommentar von AgellaUldman

Yes you can. There is a fishing daily in Org. Also one in Dal, and one in the outlands that I know of. There probably is one in Undercity as well. The fishing daily in Org give you a +1 fishing skill when complete

A comic regarding wearing the silliest gear to boost fishing:

Kommentar von 908098

So I have noticed that if you fish in the "pools" you will catch that type of fish; even if your skill is 1! Nice since I'm fishing up Highland Guppy on my Lock with a skill of 54 :P

Kommentar von PsychoBilli

I think they may have changed fishing skill ups in patch 4.3 a little. I was just working on skilling up an alt's fishing and I gained 5 points in about 6 minutes. Before the patch it was taking me around 15 - 20 minutes to get 5 points. My skill level is 430 as of writing this post.

I might be wrong, it might have just been a fluke, but it was such a pronounced increase that I suspect there's something else going on here.

Kommentar von 782960

For those people wanting some current information:

I just leveled 4 (lvl 53) Hordes from 350 to 425. Two were on Drak'thul and two were on Shandris. Each used 5-100 add lures and 4-75 add lures, in that order, keeping the skill level between 450 and 500. All four were fished at the same spot in Feralas. Each toon took 1.5 hours and caught 300 items. That's an average of 4 catches per skill, not the old tried and true number of 12.5 average (11 to 14).

At least here, Blizz has nerfed MY fishing by 68%, from 281 minutes to just 90.

GREAT JOB, BLIZZ.

Kommentar von 937568

Another way i would advise fishing is to put WoW in windows mode, shrink it and then put it on the side and open a youtube video but afterward make ur WoW the main screen and just click the fishing bob when there is a catch.
Youtube doesn't require the screen to be the main to have sound but WoW does so you can watch whatever you want while just click the bob when the sound appears

Kommentar von 960975

Why can I not see any fishing dailies available in Undercity? Is it something based off of reputation? I have all the fishing dailies done for Thunder Bluff and Org, but I cannot seem to find any available in Undercity. Any clues or ideas?

Kommentar von 847227

What's unfortunate about the fishing profession is that higher skill levels have zero affect on your casting accuracy when harvesting schools of fish. It's a bit ridiculous on occassion when you can cast 10 times before landing your bobber in the school, even though you're an Illustrious Grand Master fisherman.

Kommentar von Elethan

A good paring for fishing is to advance cooking at the same time. It makes both less tedious as you will be searching the specific fishing spots and recipes to advance both. Talk to fishing supply/trainer NPCs as they usually have good recipes and keep your cooking training up to date.

Also don't forget to fish the pools. You can catch some good fish and other things. The chance of catching the rare fish is greater also in the pools and you can target specific fish based on the pool name. The debris are even better as you can fish up an assortment of containers that can be very profitable with what they contain. Some fish are used by alchemists such as Öliges Schwarzmaul Oily Blackmouth.

And don't forget your dailies. They are a good source of xp and cash. I don't play horde so I am unfamiliar with their dailies but you can earn good pocket change and xp in Stormwind, Darnassus and Ironforge. In addition you can get 3 achievements out of it if you complete the 5 different dailies in each area.

Edit:
Ok, forget what I said above. Blizzard is now giving away cooking and fishing. Just get to 85 (or 86 to be safe) and go to the Valley of the Four Winds, specifically Halfhill. There you can fish up lots of carp to get your fishing up which can then be used to do the basic Pandarin cooking to get to 525 cooking. There is a new fishing trainer to the east by the bridge and a cooking trainer by the market.

TL;DR fishing guide:

Start in your major city. Train fishing. Fish until 75. Train at skill 75 to increase the maximum skill to 150. Fish all the way up to 150 in your major city.
Travel to Booty Bay and purchase Expertenangeln - Der Barsch und du from Old Man Heming for 1g. Old Man Heming is located on the bottom level of Booty Bay near the docks. Can be learned as early as Fishing Skill 125. Must be level 20. Will increase your Fishing Skill cap to 225.
Stay in Booty Bay and increase your Fishing Skill to 225.
Head to Dustwallow Marsh. Get the Nat Pagle, Extremangler quest from Nat Pagle. MUST be 225 Fishing and minimum level 35. Level 45 recommended. Probably fine to complete the quest a little lower than 45.
Fish up the quest fish required for the Nat Pagle quest. (Click the quest link above for exact coordinates for each quest fish listed below)
Turn in the quest. Fish in any of the following zones to max your fishing skill at 300! Felwood, Feralas, The Hinterlands, Moonglade, Tanaris, Un'Goro Crater, Western Plaguelands.

For those of you fishing in a major city, you need to get to skill level 50 to nearly guarantee you will hook all bites, and skill level 75 to ensure 100% catch rate.

In Stormwind, my fishing rates were:
~63% Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper
~35% Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish
~30% Raw Brilliant Smallfish
~1% Lesser Healing Potion
~1% 17 Pound Catfish

In Booty Bay, my fishing rates were:

~56% Rockscale Cod
~18 Spotted Yellowtail
~12% Firefin Snapper
~12% Oily Blackmouth
~1% Sturdy Locked Chest
~1% Mithril Bound Trunk

Your mileage may vary.

Happy fishing!

What am I doing wrong? I am trying to cast my fishing pole and nothing happens. I equipped myself...nope...I hot-keyed my pole...nope. What does one do to CAST the bloody thing in the water?

Kommentar von Sugu

I'm (currently) a 49 holy human priest, playing on Razorgore EU, pvp realm. I have my fishing maxed out at 300 and use Starke Angelrute. I use a normal steed and Karotte am Stiel to run. I fish alot (ALOT) in stranglethorn vale. I will fish every pool at the southern savage coast and the crystal shore. I thought for the fun of it I will keep track of what I've fished today.
I did 2 rounds today starting point: 1, end point: 4 and restarting at 1, ending up at 4 before going to booty bay to check out my loot (I have added a screenshot of how my regular route looks like). I did not aggro anything and didn't engage in PVP combat (although I would scare of the lower levels fishing in a floating wreckage). I didn't think alot of other people were fishing but sometimes it felt like pools were missing. This run took me about 1h30min. This is what I got:

I fished in the following pools: (round 1 - round 2)
- Steinschuppenaalschwarm: 3 - 4
- Ein Schwarm Feuerflossenschnapper: 7 - 7
- Kleiner Schwarm öliger Schwarzmaulfische: 10 - 3
- Blutsegelwrackteile: 3 - 4

I got a total of:
- Steinschuppenaal: 21
- Feuerflossenschnapper: 41
- Öliges Schwarzmaul: 51
- Mithrilbeschlagener Koffer: 27 (12: 7 - 4 fished in non floating wreckage pools)
- Würgetang: 15
- Schwarzer Rumsey Rum: 10

Out of my Mithrilbeschlagener Koffer I got the following:
- 42 silver 76 copper
- 11 Überragender Heiltrank
- 9 Großer Manatrank
- 11 Magiestoffballen
- 6 Runenstoffballen
- 39 Dickes Leder
- 19 Unverwüstliches Leder
- Schreckensklinge of agility
- Championschienbeinschützer of the falcon
- Chromitbrustplatte
- Schlachtfeldzerstörer of agility
- Gotische Plattengamaschen of the eagle

On a sidenote, one time you are more lucky with what you get than other times :)!

Fishing skill ups very slow after 150.
5+ catches a point now.
The diminishing returns usually are more gradual, but this started
right away.

For the fishing enthusiast that wants to train Fishing from 150 (available at 125) to 300 while leveling in Azeroth before they get to Outland, this is for you.

Fishing 1-75, and 76-150 can be learned from your local fishing trainer, as you know.

To go beyond 150, you will need to acquire Expertenangeln - Der Barsch und du from Der alte Mann Heming in Beutebucht. Der alte Mann Heming is available to both Alliance and Horde. You can also check the Auction House for this item, but for the true fisherman (fisher-woman?), the journey is a part of the fun.

To level your Fishing Skill past 225, you will need to complete the quest Nat Pagle, Extremangler from Nat Pagle. For this quest to appear, you need to have Fishing at 225 and be level 35. It is one of the best quests in the game, IF you enjoy fishing. Note, while in Desolace to catch the Sar'therisbarsch, you should also grind out the Große Eisenangelrute.
