WoW Fishing Guide
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009A fun an often profitable secondary profession in WoW is Fishing. Its a gathering profession like Mining and Herbalism, but with some unique angles. You’ll see the best way to play the fishing profession in the following WoW Fishing guide.
Patience is key to WoW fishing just like real fishing. Sitting and waiting for something to take the bait is part of fishing in the real world as well as World of Warcraft. When youve caught something the bobber will dip, thats when you need to quickly double click it! You may catch other valuble things while fishing other than fish and of course you might just get junk.
Like other secondary professions, fishing compliments other primary professions. Naturally, Cooking goes great with fishing just because it’ll allow you to cook the fish. Sometimes you may reel in cloth or leather. These items can then be used in Tailoring and Leatherworking. The following are the steps to begin fishing.

Heres a list of some basic steps to guide you in WoW Fishing.
Step 1: Get a pole
To start just get a basic fishing pole. You can usually find a Supplier selling poles for about 23 copper near water or the trainer.
Step 2: Find a Fishing Trainer
As youd expect fishing trainers will be near bodies of water, but if you do need help just ask a guard. Beginning training will usually cost about 1 silver.
Step 3: Find water
Just about any body of water will do. This includes rivers, ponds, lakes and so forth. Fishing in a quite spot has 2 main advantages. For one you can fish without having to stop to fight. Secondly, when you’ve made a catch you’ll hear a splash in the water.
Step 4: Equip Pole
Just drag the pole to the main hand slot in the character screen.
Step 5: Spellbook
For convenience put the fishing icon on your action bar. Itll be in your Spellbook.
Step 6: Cast
Click the fishing icon to cast your line, the bobber will be in the water if you did it right.
Step 7: Reel In the catch
As I mentioned before once the bobber dips it means youve caught something. Just right click the bobber twice. Take the fish from the loot and place it in the inventory.
As your skill level goes up, the amount of junk you catch goes down. This WoW Fishing guide won’t go into leveling, but there are some really good guide available. Also certain fishing spots have more junk than others. Focus on catching to more valuable fish. It may take longer but the gold is much better.
