Back in the day and in classic now I'd fish waiting for the boats to come to take to one of the other continents. Also a favourite memory was finishing 10 man Naxx and our druid tank just realizing he tanked it all with his fishing pole equipped.

Fishing is always meta. To gauge if a game is good or not strictly depends on if and how good the fishing is.

I'm surprised you didn't even mention the Ashbringer rumors that were attached to Fishing for so long that Blizzard made its Legion Appearance incorporate Fishing.

I loved going after these rumors even if it was obvious that these were just rumors. Or trying everything to get to GM island.

@gamejedi 3 года назад

You forgot to talk about the Kalu'ak faction, which at exalted allowed you to purchase the Masterwork Kalu'ak Fishing Pole. This pole gave you +30 to Fishing, but also gave you the ability to breathe underwater when equipped. It also had a unique pole design. There was also Pengu, a penguin battle pet that you could purchase from the same vendor. Not a fish, but still interesting.

@AsprosOfAzeroth 3 года назад

Unpopular opinion: I like fishing in WoW. If you ever went fishing irl you know it's one of the most monotonous things you can do. I like that fishing is one of the most passive, relaxed, and quiet things you can do in game. PS: fishing in Legion was awesome

@pacmaniacer 3 года назад

I Love fishing and i Play a fishing Simulator besides wow. I really Love that relaxing Part. Some chill music or Talk With some Friends over discord. Best you can do

@RozekillDeadFlower 3 года назад

Agreed. My SO hates fishing (and mat farming in general) so I've been his fish catcher for years. I love it! Same with archeology!

@suestoons 3 года назад

When I was introduced to WoW I had many unkind things to say about fishing in-game as I have a real-life hatred for the activity. I had to eat my words. Fishing in-game is my favourite wind-down activity.

@Bermethius 3 года назад

What about the Epic fishing rod in WotLK from reputation grinding?

@MaskingJudgment 3 года назад

I don’t know if it’s still active but the underlight angler used to allow you to swim as a shark in the river of Twin Peaks while holding the flag. Worked in legion and BFA. I used it against the horde for a lot of easy flag caps.

@petrameyer1121 3 года назад

The person behind Salty El and the site was hired by Blizzard and had to close the site because of that. He was behind the Fishing Pole legendary in Legion, AFAIK.

@sheppo 3 года назад

You could also have mentioned in Wrath there was a guild achievement to fish x amount of pools that would reward the recipe for a wrath stat feast.

@skorpian34 2 года назад

I played back in the MoP days and a bit before that and LOVED fishing. it made sense to level cooking at the same time. The Artisan fishing quest from Nat Pagle was so much fun and it was a real sense of accomplishment completing it. Seeing this vid sure brought back memories.

@Sheeps856 3 года назад

Technically, SOME fishing items had PvP usage. The old fishing rewards included, if I recall correctly, a hat with a lot of stamina. You could get it at a low level and it was a sought-after item for certain low level PvP twinks, because the comparatively huge health boost from something like +20 stamina on a lowbie was much stronger than anything else you could get in the lowest twinked bracket.

@jawstrock2215 3 года назад

Yeah so many twinks doing fishing contest for the hat mostly. Hat was like lvl 20+? in vanilla...

@Meowvela 3 года назад

Huh, this actually helps me figure out when I started playing. I'm pretty sure it was a bit before fish tracking was added... so... a fair bit earlier than I thought!

@joshuadonnelly1978 3 года назад

Getting the Salty title back in the day was so long ago that I had forgotten how difficult it actually was. I still use Mr. Pinchy the Magical Crawdad in pet battles to this day. :)

I really couldn't face levelling it all over again in Classic. Have been grinding it out since Vanilla and have probably everything achievable in retail. Painful

@StonehengeHurricane 3 года назад

The best profession, period.

@Doomted90 2 года назад

I noticed from playing classic that a lot of people didnt know that fishing was hands down the best proff in the game for farming. During Vanilla it was possible to fish for leather working, alchemy, tailoring AND enchanting mats very efficiently from floating debris pools. Literally no one understood how I was level 35 with max enchanting and tailoring on my first character.

@cwad737 3 года назад

Man , I loved fishing in legion, as someone with the artifact pole could power level anyone to max fishing in like a half hour.

@DaltLundgren 18 дней назад

I remeber spending a couple months grinding the Fishing extrav for The Lucky Fishing Hat and Fishing Boots. They were BiS for almost all Lvl 19 twinks. Great memories.

@Kungen1337 2 года назад

Man i alwaysed really liked fishing in wow. Almost completed the achivment for the Salty titel to getting the artifact rod in legion and leveling that it was just amazing. Really hope they will bring great meaning to the professions again in a new expansion.

One thing u forgot to put in video is a super rare Dagger weapon called Dustbringer (homage to Ashbringer), that u can fish up in Northrend. As of this day it's one of the rarest weapon in game, and it goes for a such a high prices on auction house.

Kaluak Mastercraft Fishing pole was BIS in WOTLK. Needed rep to get it but it was great. Even allowed you to breathe underwater. Plus It's Epic level Purple.

@jeffreyarnold2626 3 года назад

fishing, and cooking have always been very useful skills, when combined provided stat buffs. it used to surprise me how few actually knew this until i told them. i made my G for riding, and mount from selling blackmouth, and firefin on AH. was a very lucrative business, especially the goblin AH. i guess my rep got around as the horde stopped attacking me in southshore knowing soon i'd have mats on the neutral AH for potions they didn't need to farm.

@geekmp3 3 года назад

Before I unsubbed I made sure to finish my fishing goals. I also enjoy a beer while casting digitally in Azeroth's waters. Great video! Glad to see I'm not missing much in Shadowlands.

@Damassan 3 года назад

But are you missing Nat Pagle popping up randomly on Draenor to say that you owe him a beer or that he thinks he saw a dolphin in that pool of lava outside the Horde garrison?

@andrewshandle 3 года назад

Such a great way to skill cooking in Vanilla, and if you lucked out and got the Deviate Delight recipe to drop, it made for some nice income too.

@Requiem100500 3 года назад

Didn't mention Horde-only quest reward fishing pole from troll village that was BIS before getting arcanite fishing pole

@toastiewulf 3 года назад

Fun fact about the underlight angler: it can be used in bgs, so it actually has some decent use in twin peaks as a flag carrier. allowing you to outrun your persuers. but you did loose the stats of your weapon. so high risk high reward

@StottMikel 3 года назад

Great summary mate.

@Roof5tone 3 года назад

Now this is my profession! I got every fishing pole with the +5 fishing line. (+6 exists but is easier to get so thus worth less) and every reward except one of the turtles which has eluded me for years. >_

@suestoons 3 года назад

Cool. The Stranglethorn Fishing Contest is the bane of my existence. The only thing standing between me and my salty title. I fished up the turtles in my Garrison, rather early on in WoD. Try there for a bit.

@knighthawk3749 3 года назад

I got riding turtle in my garrison, but have had zero luck with Sea Turtle. Even when joining fishing raids.

@cheseit4452 3 года назад

For a time in BFA you could use the hyper compressed ocean to also block the siege vehicles from driving out of the workshops.

Gahz'ranka in ZG and The Lurker Below in SSC get no mention? Pretty big omission there, especially since the ZG guy dropped Turtle Polymorph.

@imadeyoureadthis1 3 года назад

Fishing was a big thing for me. I sat in the lake behind goldshire in Argent dawn fishing, talking to strangers that came by. Imagine not reaching max level character, but have 10.000 fish caught. Thank god i moved but damn, dark period.

@Damassan 3 года назад

Another thing that I don't think you mentioned was that the crit % chance was based on your fishing skill at one point. Had randomly noticed it went up when I applied a lure one time. Not sure if that got changed at some point.

@WhyKyja 3 года назад

13:26 The swim speed no longer works in combat since late BFA/Shadowlands. Which is what demoted having the pole a necessity in my bags to just if I'm kitting myself out for a few beverages and sinking some hours into the closet thing Azeroth has to a slot machine.

@kramler 3 года назад

There used to be an fishing app, so you could use your phone like fishing pole when casting. The bad thing about was that your cursor had to be on the ability Fishing, and you had to move your mouse, and click on the bobber, when there was a catch

@JohnPates 2 года назад

I think a few of the fish even had a higher chance to catch one or the other depending on if it was night or day... and then if it was the summer half of the year or the winter half.

@joshbiddinger1744 2 года назад

Bind cast to a mouse button, turn down all wow volume but ambient?, kick up your feet, turn on netflix, make money. Once you get your system going you only have to look at your screen to readjust your curser to the new bobber location. I've made quite a bit of gold at the start of BfA and Shadowlands till fish prices eventually tank.

@Tom-lg9ee 3 года назад

In retrospect, some of my happiest memories of wow are just enjoying the fishing content and archaeology grind. Also on Margos' island there was also a chance to get an item to summon a water ele for extra currency items. To complete him I think it was 580 water currency items and before the expansion people sat in raid groups to do that too.
