A very easy quest. Gubber Blump will even lend you a fishing pole for the task. You can start fishing directly next to Bubber Blump. The quest can easily be completed with a very low fishing skill.

There are a few fish that you can pull in. Oily Blackmouth can normally be sold in the auction house for quite a few silver each.

The quest should take less than fifteen minutes and will also raise you fishing skill while your doing it.

Just ask Gubber Blump, from there u can learn the Fishing skill ^^

Commento di Thottbot

Just Fish beside the quest giver, and the grouper will turn up.

Easy quest,

I love fishing anyway and already had some fish before taking the quest, caught a few of the pier and the rest beside the fisherman.

There was another player there aswell who offered to sell me the fish, so you may get lucky if you don't have/want the fishing skill.

Commento di Thottbot

Why was this harder for me to figure out than some other skills? Just an idiot, I guess.

Anyway, if you do the quest, Gubber will lend you a pole. If not, you need to buy one (fishing trainer and supplies in Darnassus and Lakeshire), the bait (shiny bauble to start) and get trained.

Find a body of water, equip the pole (replace your main hand weapon with the pole), "bait" the pole (with the bauble or better bait), then (I didn't realize this was necessary) find the Fishing icon in your spellbook and drag it to an icon bar. Click on the fishing icon and you will cast. You'll see the green fishing "progress" bar on your screen. You need to recast when the progress bar disappears. Just keep recasting until you get the fish you want.

When the bobber moves and you put the cursor over it, you get a gear icon. Right-click the gear icon and you will get a fish, something else or the message that "your fish got away" (same thing as an empty loot box). I left the cursor on the icon most of the time but you don't need to do that.

I did the Bubber Glump quest and got to lvl 14 in about 18 minutes, with the 6 required fish and about 8 others. XP was only 100 but after all, my 54 Druid was late to the game.

Why start now? Look up Deviate Fish and you'll understand. I stole the recipe from the Gadget AH. Why not? Everyone should be a fisherman.

Commento di Thottbot

Fished off the end of the pier and got all 6 within 6 minutes, easy as pie :D

WARNING:

If you've just done this quest, you cannot do a character migration for that character. Their mailbox will appear empty but because of the way mail works (mailbox contents include items that haven't arrived yet) your mailbox will not be 'empty' and char migration will fail.

I just got snared by this, nasty :(

Commento di Thottbot

It took me an entire 4 minutes to catch 5 groups, 1 rainbow fin albacore, then a final grouper.

I had 21 fishing skill to start, bought some bait so I had 46 to start off with. I took the advice of a poster some posts up by stepping right in front of Blumper in the water and started fishing.

Hope this helps anyone, it was either Grouper Time of the day 5am EST! Or somethin.. But a whole 4 minutes for a pole and exp.

Don't under estimate fishing, once you get high enough and find some floating wreckage and some nice schools of fish, you can make some good money.

I don't guess anyone else got that the quest title is a play on the title of a Peter Gabriel song?

13/1/07. I'm a lvl 13 NE Hunter. I went to the spot near the quest giver but didn't know what to do. I didn't have a fishing rod so wasn't sure. Came on here and read that you need to have the fishing profession which I didn't have and a fishing rod. It also said to go to Darnassus if you don't have either and get them. I went to Darnassus, went to bank and asked Sentinel where to go, went there, got profession than bought rod. Went back to spot but didn't know how to fish, someone told me.

I spent probly 20-30 minutes on it. Got 5 of them, than caught 4 other fish and lost a tonne. Finally was about to give up so took one more shot and got it. :D

14/1/07. I recieved the letter and ball in the mail this morning.

Commento di Allakhazam

Where is it? I've searched south of Auberdine in the sea. But I can't find the fish he asked for. Am I on the wrong track here? Bernt E

Commento di Allakhazam

Does this quest needs fishing skill? I don't have and didn't see any fish there

Commento di Allakhazam

Ok Took Me About 4 Minutes To Complete This Quest, However It Took A Further 2 Minutes Trying To Figure Out Where I Get The POle From Plus Were To Start Fishing.

Use Faandrel's 36,49, For those of you who dont know how to do this download cosmos then when in game type /tloc 36,49. Her eyou now have a brownish circle on your big map (Press M) move to that location when you have the pole and stuff then go to your skills drag fishing apprentice to a action bar and then when standing at those co-ordinates right click and wait till the bobby jumps slightly then right click on it.

Good Look

I did this quest without the bait but my fishing was 97 at the time. Caught all the fish while standing mere "feet" from where the quest originates. The new pole is awesome and if you are patient and fish in different spots you can get some rares.

Commento di Allakhazam

I've been fishing for 30 min and caught only 4 fish, none are the grouper! Most of the fish run away after I click the bobber when it jumps. Is there a trick to this? Or would a better pole fix this problem?

Commento di Allakhazam

Two days after doing this quest I received mail from Mr. Blump. He thanked me for helping with the quest, and sent along a fishing bauble with the letter.

I thought that was a very nice touch. :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Hello!You can buy a Strong Fishing Pole at the fish vendor!it gives you +5 fishing

Commento di Allakhazam

In addition to the pole, I received an in-game email from Gubber with a thank you note and a Shiny Bauble about 24hrs after I completed the quest.

That was nice of him, don't cha' think?

Commento di Allakhazam

If your fish are getting away use the bait and target your rod. The Oily Blackmouth are lucritive on the Auction House in darnassus.

Commento di Allakhazam

you really want to move south a bit, just until you cross over the "line" into the next territory and see the beached thing in the distance. It's not far at all, maybe 100 yards.

I had a fishing skill of 55 and standing near Gubber I didn't catch a single grouper.

After moving south within visual distance of the beached thing, I caught the 6 grouper in no time.

Commento di Allakhazam

Shouldn't matter where you fish in that area, I just used the pole I bought from the NPC, and the +25 fishing item. Got all in 10 minutes, a friend took 20 minutes but he wasn't lucky I guess lol. Did the quest before too, also 5-10 minutes.

Commento di Allakhazam

The name Gubber Blump sounds a lot like Bubba Gump - the guy from the movie Forest Gump. He was a shrimper and knew everything there was to know about shrimp.

Commento di Allakhazam

Now, I have heard that with a high enough fishing, you could catch Lockboxes, rings, etc. Is this true? If it is, how are the odds? Just like grinding? Same thing? What goes with fishing, if this is a good thing to do? Thanks guys and I will continue to help you all with Locations

I'm using the Strong Fishing Pole (+5 fishing) but it's taking ages to get them! I'm getting every other fish but Darkshore Groupers, annoying.
Very annoying seeing as i'm right by the Darkshore Grouper School! Does it help if you're not standing by the fisherman who gives you the quest? (Gubber Blump)

Commento di Allakhazam

Completed in less then 5 min, at 36.47--fish lvl 51 + NPC pole with nightcrawlers

Commento di Allakhazam

I happened to be leveling up my fishing skill so I already had the grouper when I came across Gubber. So when I accepted the quest I immediately completed it and received the pole, then a day or so later I received a letter from him thanking me with an Aquadynamic Fish Attractor. It was quite nice and unexpected.

Commento di Allakhazam

You will defintely want this Fishing Pole. It works so much better than the generic one you buy from the fish vendor. And you can simply fish right off the beach where the quest Originates.

Takes about 10-20 mins to do, but worh it.

Commento di Allakhazam

Hmm... where do we get the fishing skills....?
i dont know where the dude that gives the skill is... so i cant do the quest... :(
so if anyone is kind enough to tell me where that dude is.. i'd like it!
lol, thx alot
Crzykid.

Commento di Allakhazam

I found I got groupers quicker if I fished off the boat landing, near the quest site. I got a few oily blackmouths into the bargain too.

and no one else seems to have noted the gubber blump - Bubba Gump reference? ;)

Commento di Allakhazam

Sorry, I accidently double posted

just in front of him there is like green waters. i fished there and i caught the grouppers in like ten minutes along with 5 oily blackmouths. I was lucky i think man.

Commento di gamedisciple

Don't forget to pick up Gaffer Jacks and save yourself some time! (quest-giver is upstairs at the Auberdine inn).

Also, extra Darkshore Grouper can be sent to alts or auctioned for easy completion of The Family and the Fishing Pole.

Happy fishing!

Commento di SpareSimian

The Fishing Buddy addon is great for this, but it's not yet ported to classic. Until then, consider using the Easy Fishing Classic addon. It doesn't do the fish counting but it lets you cast with a double-right-click.

Fished on the beach in front of Gubber.
Used basic pole and shiny bobber bought from him.

12 minutes.

The Family and the Fishing Pole

Catch 6 Darkshore Grouper for Gubber Blump in Auberdine.

	Darkshore Grouper (6)

Descrizione

I love fishing. The Blump family is known for fishing. My name is Gubber Blump; I fish.

There's a kind of fish I like to catch around these parts called Darkshore grouper. I used to go out on a boat to fish for grouper, but no boats have been going out since them mean ol' murlocs moved in. I bet they been eating up all the grouper too.

Say, you wanna help me catch Darkshore grouper? I'd give you a bona fide Blump Family Fishing Pole if you did! It's a real good pole to catch fish with.
