  1. 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.

  2. Wow fishing is great! Has anyone but me noticed that the fishing line to the bobber looks like a catenary and not just a straight line? Nice detail.

  3. During Cata I showed my arena partner/gm a safe fishing spot in Orgrimmar where npcs wouldn't aggro and players weren't likely to find you and the bastard caught Old Crafty on his first cast.

  4. 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.

  5. Why do you keep calling Arcanite fishing pole as the best? In WotLK there was an epic Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole, that gave the same +30 fishing skill AND infinite underwater breathing.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Don't worry the next fishing thing to do will be to level it all back up after they reset fishing back to zero and you lose 200 skill points
    and must level them back up to get what you used to be able to do.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. Idk why but this video really made it hit home with me. Modern wow has completely lost the feeling of being an “adventurer” classic really did feel like your character was a wandering hero exploring new and tough lands. Which is why professions like cooking, fishing, or first aid felt cool and to a certain extent “realistic”, but now with wows more modern super high fantasy stuff I am sitting here and asking myself, why am I, a member of literal death angels, that being the kyrian, fishing? I honestly cannot answer that anymore and it makes me sad.
