The book that teaches the ability to track fishing pools. Looted from boxes found from fishing, most commonly from pools of floating wreckage.

Patch Day: 11-13-07, found one in my first AND second
Heavy Supply Crate
in Zangarmarsh from a Steam Pump Flotsam debris spawn. The Book itself is BoP, however the crates are not. Look before you loot (turn off that auto-loot feature you have your fishing mod do) and then you may be able to sell it. This post is too early to tell how much it will go for on market, but it seemed easy enough to get to not be worth the hassle of an AH.

You cannot see the book if you've already learned the skill. I had 3 crates with books in them and I used one of them, then when I looked into another again it dissapeared.
You can, however, send all your crates to an alt who doesn't have the skill. The alt needs to have 1 or higher fishing skill to see the book. (Needs to have trained fishing.)

Well, I fished up a bunch of Curious Crates on my main (who'd already learned fish tracking) and tossed them in the mail to my banker, on the off chance that I might find another journal IF someone besides my main opened the crate.
The good news is, I did find one. I left it safely in its crate, because my banker only has a fishing skill of 1. I asked in Trade if anyone wanted it, got a response, and a trade followed. Curiously (ha) the Curious Crate appeared empty to my client, and she told me so. I had no issues returning her money, and she traded the Crate back to me. It seems she didn't have any fishing skill whatsoever (that's the impression I got). I checked the crate once it was back on me, and the Journal remained safely in place. I tossed it to another alt of mine, again with fishing skill (a mere 4), and that character could see the Journal as well.
I think this item is much like the BoP recipes found throughout the Outlands. If you don't have the skill, you can't see the prize. That means you CAN buy this from another player, so long as it remains in the Crate that holds it. And, if you trade it to someone else and they claim they didn't get a Journal out of it, you should demand your Crate back, in exchange for their money. The Crate looks empty but remains in their inventory, and there's no good reason (as of my posting this) that they shouldn't be able to return it.

Was cleaning my bank alt today and found a Curious Crate lying around (must have been there for weeks). I peek inside it and see one of these journals :D
The 2.3 patch spawned this book inside my unlooted crate!
Mailed the box to my main double-time.

Consider the following
when you first open
a fished container.
Do you have fishing? If so, you have a random chance to find a journal.
Where did the container originate? Wreckage seems to yield containers with the highest chance of holding a Journal.
Do you already
know
Find Fish? If a journal exists, it will be deleted from the container, before displaying the contents.
Source
Approximately 40 containers fished from standard pools, like Feltail and Zangarian Sporefish did not contain any journals. After a few attempts at fishing from wreckage, a journal turned up, rather quickly. The source of the container seems to be significant.
Knowing Fishing
I'd mailed 30
unopened
containers to a level 11 bank alt without fishing. No journals dropped. Then the character trained fishing level 1. The subsequent 30 containers dropped 6 journals.
Knowing "Find Fish"
After learning "Find Fish", on a higher level character, the next 30 containers provided no additional journals. The contents seem to be decided when the container is first opened. When mailed to an alt, the contents remained the same. With regards to Journals; does the game stop making the attempt to give you a journal, or does it simply delete them?
Knowledge deletes journals
Several journal containers were stored with the bank alt. Successful journal containers were emptied of all other items, like Fel Iron, and Netherweave Cloth. One of these journal-only crates was mailed back to the level 70 who knew "Find Fish".
When the skilled character peeked inside, the game displayed an error; "You do not have permission to loot." The container disappeared from inventory. The journal was lost. If you know "Find Fish", the game will normally quietly destroy the journal before revealing the contents. By removing the other contents, the game was forced to display an error.
Hopefully this clarifies the item's behavior.
Happy hunting!

I went to WoWHeads page for Curious Crates (
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=27513
) since that is reportedly the highest drop rate source. Made circles around the lakes in Zangarmarsh for about 30 min fishing the "Steam pump flotsam", had about 8 crates drop before I got the journal. Very easy to get, just a small time investment.

Not too long ago I fished up a crate while already knowing the "Find Fish" ability. Opened up the crate, nothing inside, but it didn't disappear from my inventory, so I thought it might contain the book.
Sent it over to a guildie and yup, it contained the Find Fish book. Im not kidding.
So unlike someone far above me mentioned (a post with about 30 + rating), you CAN fish up a crate with a journal inside and still sell it to someone else!

After some testing of my own, I'd like to change something about your statement.
Approximately 40 containers fished from standard pools, like Feltail and Zangarian Sporefish did not contain any journals. After a few attempts at fishing from wreckage, a journal turned up, rather quickly. The source of the container seems to be significant.
After fishing up 20 containers from standard pools (Curious Crates, in case you were curious... oh god, I made a pun!) that has fish tracking and sending them to a high level alt with level 1 fishing, 11 of them had a journal in them, roughly a 50% drop rate.
I will keep sending them to an alt to try and confirm this, I plan on giving one to all my guildies that don't have it yet, and selling the rest.

My girlfriend and I are leveling Horde alts. Her fishing is ~170 and mine is ~100.
We swung over to Alterac to fish up some
Raw Greater Sagefish
for cooking. Within 20 minutes she had fished up 4
Iron Bound Trunk
s.
She started looking in the trunks and got her journal from the second one. She then traded me the remaining two trunks and I found a journal in the first one that I opened.
Don't trust the drop chance that is listed on Wowhead because people who already have the journal are skewing it as they will never see it drop again.

By Beefstick on 11/25/2007 (Patch 2.3.0)
I went to WoWHeads page for Curious Crates (
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=27513
) since that is reportedly the highest drop rate source.
By Virtualiser on 01/27/2008 (Patch 2.3.3)
youve made such a discovery only by that, that zangarmarsh seems to be the most fished zone since the tbc, the droprate from the boxes is all the same - about 15% since you can only loot it once after you have learnt it.
If it were truly the case that zangarmarsh was the
most
fished zone, then the apparent drop rate of the one-per-customer item would be
lowest
, assuming, as done here, that it has a flat droprate consistent throughout all zones.

Can confirm that if your fishing lvl is below 275 then around Southshore jetty is the place to get the journal. I spent 2 hours in Zangarmarsh then went to Southshore, and got the drop on the 2nd cast from a Water tight chest. Don't waste your time going anywhere else !

The best place there is for this item, I believe, Is the stream just east of southshore.
I have learned this skill on all my toons (except one lol) from fish the sagefish schools i get atleast one per 3 pools.
Send all boxes unopened to a lowbie alt that hasnt learned this skill and has trained fishing.
Ive gotten anywhere from 10g-50g for these. I dont put a price when in /2 and most replys say how much they will pay for this.

You can fish it lvl 18-20ish at Cragpool Lake in Windshear Crag (Stonetalon Mountains). Just look for the schooner wreckage. No need to go to higher lvl areas like STV, Desolace, or Southshore.

I've found the Weather-Beaten Journal on various characters throughout the game. I found it many times on my Horde toons in the pond just outside Tarren Mill, Hillsbrad Foothills (if you aren't on a PVP server, this is also viable for Alliance toons). For my Alliance toons, I've fished it up in Auberdine, Darkshore. It is not necessary to fish in flotsam as I've gotten crates and boxes from normal fish pools. Good luck to all!

A word of warning if you transfer servers with these books in crates. The contents of the crates will be randomized, and the books will be lost. I found this out the hard way, unfortunately, as I lost two books.

My brother and I both looked for these at the same time, went to the lake north of the river in Windshear Crag, and fished
Watertight Trunk
s out of Schooner Wreckage spawns. Neither of us had
Find Fish
but were both over Fishing 100. The first trunk I managed to fish up had a Weather-Beaten Journal, and the first one my brother fished up also contained it. This pretty much shows that these are really easy to obtain, if the conditions are right. By the way, in order to find the Wreckage spawns once mine disappeared, I used
Find Fish
to find others for my brother :). Just a warning, the area was swarming with Venture Co. mobs around levels 18-20. Good Luck!

I followed the advice of another here and fished some pools at Windshear Crag in the Stonetalon Mountains. Given the amount of water, it seemed as if there were always pools of oil or wreckage. Took me about 20-30 minutes, 15 pools, and 7 or 8 watertight trunks before I finally pulled a journal out.

Your best bet is to go to eastern Stonetalon Mountains, and fish up Watertight Crates in Windshear Crag, where the Venture Co. is so active. Fish in pools of floating debris or wreckage. The journal is BoP and unique, so any character that has either a journal (be it in inventory or bank) OR the Find Fish skill cannot loot them.
The best way to provide journals to others is to have one toon fish up the crates, and mail them UNOPENED to another toon who has fishing but not find fish. He opens the trunks, but does NOT LOOT them. This allows you to find the trunks with the journals in them, and mail them off or bark them in trade.

Hmm...since everyone seems to have *vastly* different experiences at the same locations, I'm wondering if there's some external factor involved with the drop rate.
For example, the number of any particular type of fish you reel in can be dependent on the time of day and location where you're fishing. Perhaps there's something similar with the crates, like the time of day (or day of the week) at a particular location, or how recently the nodes have been fished out? (For example, maybe they drop more often during the afternoon along the shore of STV, but practically disappear late at night, and maybe around that time, the drop rate picks up in Hillsbrad, and so on.)
Or perhaps the drop rate is keyed to something, like the fishing skill of the character who first looks in the crate? (I mean, the ability to find fish would be of considerably more use to someone with a low fishing score as opposed to a character whose fishing is almost maxed out, wouldn't it?)
I don't use the Wowhead addon (I'm running the game under Linux, and on my rickety old machine, it's all I can do just to get it to run :-), but my understanding is that it doesn't track the time of day (or day of the week) when things are encountered. Any chance of the Wowhead devs adding that into the addon and working that data into the database? (especially since we just had a big content patch (3.3) and Cataclysm is coming down the road)
Hopefully, food for thought.
Gris.

I decided to go with the recommendation to head to Stonetalon Mountains and fish at Windshear Crag. Worked like a charm, on the 2nd box I fished up, found the book :) I fished 2 pools of oil before the wreckage pool. Found one box in a pool of oil, but it was the box I found in the wreckage pool that contained my book. Total time fishing was maybe 5-10 minutes max. It took me longer fly and run there on my mount than it did to fish it up.

there are many pools of wreckage along the coast of Stranglethorn, and the wreckage usually drops crates. i haven't seen this listed as a good place to fish this book up, but i decided to fish a Bloodsail Wreckage pool as i passed by while questing. fished up 4 mithril bound trunks, 2 of which contained the book. i would think that with all the wreckage, STV would be a good place to get this on lower-level characters.

I can confirm that Zangarmarsh Floating Flotsam pools are extremely good for finding the journal. Simply look for the floating piles of wreckage and start fishing around the large, steaming Naga pumps. I found my journal in the first crate from the first wreckage pool on the first cast, and from reading the comments, it seems others have found theirs quickly, too.

Contrary to popular belief, you CAN fish a chest containing this book even if you have find fish ability. But, you just wont SEE the book. Mail any chests to either an alt or friend who does not have find fish, and they will see any books you find.
I tested this recently. My main already has 'find fish' and spent around 1hr or so fishing in feralas and wetlands. Fished out about 15 chests, 6 of which when mailed to alt actually had book.
Happy fishing.

Well my boyfriend and I had found 1 while fishing about 3 months ago and didn't know what it was till we came here and looked it up. He got it, then we ended up deleting the toon it was on, we were upset but said oh well we will find it again someday then we went fishing about 2 1/2 months later in the same spot, and BAM he finds another one in a box in the same exact location lol that was about 2 weeks ago. Well today I was fishing in roughly the same area getting my fishing up and BAM I found another one. So we both have it now and which is great because we are trying to make complete toons.

After fishing this up on an alt in Dustwallow Marsh, I decided to get a copy for my main character and figure out the mechanics of how to get this book. While going about it, I managed to fish up 4 copies while fishing in Stranglethorn Vale over the course of an hour. It came in various chests that I fished up from debris as well as schools of fish such as oily blackmouths, firefin snappers, etc. Once I scribed it, I found out this not only picks up fishing nodes, but wreckage nodes as well. I also found out this other information:
1) If you don't immediately pick up the book from whatever chest it's in, you can fish up multiple copies of it.
2) If you don't immediately pick up the book from the chest it's in, you can also freely trade/mail the chest the book is in to other players. The receiving player can then pick up the book themselves and use it once their fishing skill is high enough.
3) If you pick up the book and learn the skill, any other copies you have in your possession will become
invisible
. However, invisible copies are still in whatever chests they came in, and if any of these chests are mailed/traded to other players who
haven't already learned the Find Fish skill
, copies of the book will be visible to them and they can freely pick it up if they wish.
4) Once you have the Find Fish skill, you won't come across another copy of this book via fishing nodes or debris.

Sigrah's advice is very good. I spent half an hour fishing floating wrekage in Zangarmarsh today and fished up about 20 crates of various types. I was opening them as I fished them to start with and found one of these. I read the advice here and decided to learn the book so I could make use of the ability but then no longer open crates. I sent the crates to my alts and had them open them until they got a journal. So many crates have these journals in (but of course I couldn't see them with my main who had already learned the journal). All my alts now have the journal.
Even chars whose fishing is low (I tested on a char whose fishing was 5) can see the book if they haven't already got it. You have to have fishing skill of 100 to learn it, but you can pick it up from a crate at lower skill.
Has anyone worked out if there is a character level limit on seeing it?

As stated before, the journal is BOP, but if you turn off your auto-loot or hold down the shift key, while your right clicking on the trunk or crate, you can view the items without picking them up. That way you can see what is in the crate then send the crate onto another alt or toon. I do this all the time when I'm fishing so that I can leave all the items in the crate rather than have them cluttering up my bags. Then I just unpack them at the bank.
I have fished the Journal out from the pond just south of Tarren Mill, 3 times on three different toons. The last one I sent on to my alt for his fishing pleasure since I already had the skill.
Enjoy!

Found today inside a crate fished from high-level pools in terokkar forest. I'm assuming since it's Fishing(100) that you can find it in lower level pools. I guess blizzard put this in the game for the last patch. Man is it helpful, find fish faster and more mindlessly - just like finding thorium :-) Should be helpful on sundays in STV.

Just got this in Zangarmarsh at the cords of
60,55
from a random school (it was in a crate).
I had spent aprox an hour fishing random schools in nagrand and zangar before I got this drop, wasn't going for it but I'm not complaining!
And yes its BOP.

Wow, I just got mine fishing for Pure Water at the elemental plateau. Came in a curious crate. Very nice. It makes fishing much easier. You don't have to watch for the pools of fish, just check your map. Probably going to be very handy for the fishing contest.
But, how rare is it?

Fished up from an oil spill in stonetalon mts, dont think its limited to any one zone in the world, apparently a random drop in fishing spots everywhere. As noted it is BoP which stinks as I was on an alt and would rather have it on my main, lol.

I have gone to pretty far flung regions in search of floating wreakage (after I realized it had to be a "floating wreakage" spawn, as opposed to just pieces in random water) and after many trunks still no luck. At this point it had become one of those nagging things I wanted even if I didn't NEED it. I was getting a few casts in waiting for the boat on the pier in Booty Bay, and got a Mithril bound Trunk. I opened it later, and there it was, Practically no effort-Wow.

I played a Pally for 2 years and spent way too many hours with fishing since some fish sold very good on our server.
However, I never came across this book.
Now I play a rogue on lvl 43, and the first time I fished out a random floating wreckage in STV, I found this in a mithril bound trunk.
However, the ability doesn`t change that much, the fish schools are clearly visible in the water anyway *doh*.

Hahaha i just got one on my hunter!
i was fishing and thinking that a spell like this should be in the game, like for higher lvl fishermen but I like how they implemented it.
Blizzard should make more spells like it.

2.3 Changes -El's Extreme Anglin' - WoW Fishing Guide
about half way down the page...
Tracking Journal
Minimap with Find Fish ability active.
Drysc (Blizzard) originally announced, "Fishermen, and Fisherladies, will be able to track fishing nodes, similar to herbalism and mining. The ability will be learned from a journal you can find in fished-up crates."
The new "Find Fish" ability is taught by a Weather-Beaten Journal. The ability makes "nearby fishing nodes appear on the minimap" - just like tracking abilities for minerals and herbs. The journal binds when picked up, so cannot be traded (unless the original crate is traded and the journal remains unseen). A fishing skill of 100 is required to learn the ability. The picture shows the ability being used to highlight the location of nearby pools. The only pools the ability does not show are Schools of Tastyfish, found during the Stranglethorn Extravaganza (likely a bug).
The table below summarises the crate types Weather-Beaten Journals can be found in. Sample catch sizes are very low, so read the results with caution. Once you have a journal in your inventory, or have learnt the Find Fish ability, you will no longer be able to find journals within crates. However, Torgon informs me that if you already know the Find Fish ability and catch a trunk/crate that would have contained a journal, the container will remain in your inventory. It can then be traded to someone that does not know the ability, and they will be able to retrieve a journal (again presumably another bug). All the tests were done by destroying journals as soon as they were found.

Thanks to Graargh for confirming Heavy Supply Crates as a source. Tightly Sealed Trunk very rarely contain journals (thanks Thayer). Coastal lock-boxes were not tested.
Curious Crates seem to give the best catch rate, with almost half of all crates containing a Weather-Beaten Journal. Curious Crates are caught from any pool in Outland - about 4% of the catch (this may have been increased slightly, since I got 7-8% on the test server, however the sample is very small so prone to error). No pools primarily contain Curious Crates, which means that if you specifically want a journal, it may be easier to fish the pools of wreckage in Azeroth containing Iron Bound, Mithril Bound or Watertight Trunks.
For those with little fishing skill, the easiest source of journals are Watertight Trunks, which are found in floating wreckage pools in Ashenvale, Hillsbrad Foothills, Stonetalon Mountains and Wetlands. All these areas requiring just 55 skill to cast, 150 to stop get-aways. Experienced fishermen and women should find a journal easily, while fishing pools for other fish - they aren't terribly rare!

I've caught this out of a chest while fishing in Dustwallow marsh on 3 different alts.
For all you lower levels who can't fish in Dustwallow just yet, I caught it with my level 15 hunter....if you go all the way up the shore from Ratchet toward Dustwallow, there are 3 spawn spots between North Watch Hold and Dustwallow that spawn Dustwallow level loot. That's where my low level 'toon caught hers.

Dropped from a curious crate- fished up out of a teensy lake to the immediate east of shatt. Did not spawn from a pool of any sort- came right up out of the lake.

I fished up two of these in two days along the west coast of Westfall.
I thought the second chest was bugged when it showed an empty loot box but wouldn't despawn. So I mailed it to my main and turns out it had another journal in it.
So if you find a chest that looks empty and you already have the Find Fish skill, it may have a hidden journal inside.

I farmed the pools containing Furious Crawdad in Terokkar Forest for TWO days resulting in only 4 curious crates (none of which containing a Weather-Beaten Journal). I went to Zangarmarsh by Serpent Lake and skimmed the top of the water looking for debris (looks like wood on water). I got the journal on my second cast off of a Heavy Supply Crate. Highly recommend going there.

Yeah. I flew around Zangarmarsh fishing every single school I found and after 5-6 Curios Crates, I found the journal.
The schools are spread out, so fly along the shores of all the lakes there to speed up the process.

Before you spend a lot of time trying to farm this you might want to just do the new daily fishing quest a few times. I got it today as part of my quest reward!

Hah, so I was reading this yesterday and decided that last night I would go and try to get this. I hit up Hillsbrad (which was appropriate for my fishing skill). I was tracing the river down to the ocean, saw a school of fish so I tossed my line in. My first pull on that school of fish I got a chest with the book in it. I was dumbfounded. I think I got really lucky heh.

Went through Silverpine forest today, knocking down a few local nasties for a Quest, ended up on the coast north of the Sepulcher. Found some Floating Wreckage and remembered hearing something about being able to find boxes in them by fishing. I had always before assumed the floating junk was just eye candy on the realm, and had never bothered with it. This time, I figured I'd take a shot at fishing for a Box. I fished the floating junk until it disappeared, ended up with 5-6 fish and 5 Tightly Sealed Trunks. Opened them up back in Thunder Bluff, annnnddd... There was a Journal in one of them! So the Book CAN be had in very low level trunks and areas. Lucky day for me, first time ever deliberately fishing for any kind of box and got a Journal in one.

Got it on my 1st chest that was the "Iron Bound Truck"! After Checkin here for spots to fish this thing, i went to desolace and start fishin firefin snaper and oily blackmouth schools! at the 3rd pool here goes the chest and the book inside it! i ll upload a pic soon too!
P.S. Someone said that is possibly to loot another chest and have the same book, and if you open it and have the book allready you dont lose the truck! Now, you lose it,so just mail to someone else or i dunno! have fun!

I don't think they nixed it. I got two earlier this week and was able to sell them both, still in the boxes. I haven't found another one yet, but I think that's just cuz they're not supposed to be really easy to find.

Just went to Hillsbrad and fished in the south nodes. Got the journal in my first Watertight Trunk, which came after like 20-25 casts. It took around 7 minutes to find it. If your skill is below 225 with no gear, Hillsbrad is one of your best shots, otherwise, I think that the drop rate is higher in Outland.
评论来自
Thottbot
If you want this, as you see water tight trunks drop it often
If you're a lowbie, you can go to Hillsbrad Foothills, there's so many nodes of sagefish so close together you can level your skill up realll easy, and they often provide water tright trunks!
This way, you get levels and a great great skill
all my alts have this, it's so easy

I got mine from a pool in Faldir's Cove in The Arathi Highlands(There's a cave behind Stromgarde Keep that leads you to the cove). I got it from an Ironbound Trunk on my first try, the place was reccomended by a friend. No one usually fishes there so you can have all the nodes to youreslf. Good luck! :D

I realized I was never going to find this in Northrend so I went back to the old country. An easy place to get the journal is in Stonetalon Mountains on the Blackwolf River and Cragpool Lake (eastern side of country). There are lots of oily pools with trunks in them, just go back and forth, it took me 5 or 6 pools to find it. Monsters are level 15-30 in Stonetalon.

The Zangermarsh instructions are a little confusing. You need to go to the Instance entrance lake. Circle the lake until you find the small floating pieces of boxes and lumber by the shore. Fishing into this area will produce crates. It took me about 1/2 hour chasing 4 different piles of lumber. Caught about 10 crates and lots of other junk. Got the journal. Easy Peasey!

Anyone can get this book, as long as u dont ever read it u will continue to get it. I have sold them still in the trunk for 50g I mean u do get an achievment for it. just dont read it and u will get it alot.lol gl

March 27, 2010 about 10:30pm.
I fished the a Steam-Pump Slotsam in the Bloodscale Grounds of Zangermarsh. I think I casted 3 times. The first cast I got trash loot, 2nd I got a Curious Crate, no Weather-Beaten Journal. The 3rd cast I got a 2nd Curious Crate, and that had my Weather-Beaten Journal. I am sure that most of the drop rate above were a spot on at one time, but I personaly find that over time the drop rates change alot. Maybe I am just lucky, (I doubt it). Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Found this in a Mithril Bound Trunk I had on my character BEFORE the pre-patch launched. Confirmed that they drop from those types of containers and also confirmed containers don't have assigned loot until you open them.

I had randomly found one of these on my 70 alt. So I learned the skill, very excited. Fishing skill is at like 370 now.
I sent every single crate I fished up to my bank alt (level 6). I turned off auto-loot, and carefully opened each crate, hoping to get another copy for another alt with 300 fishing.
I didn't see a single copy show up among many crates, Curious or Heavy Supply. Whether coincidental or not, I don't know, but I decided to go learn Fishing on my bank alt. And I fished to skill level 10. I thought maybe having Fishing learned would make the book appear.
I then went back to my mailbox on my bank alt, with Fishing skill 10, and the 3rd Curious Crate I opened had a Weather Beaten Journal inside. Since auto loot was off, I can close the crate and send it to my other alt.
So...if you have a character with Find Fish already learned, send the crates to an alt or bank alt that also knows Fishing. Turn off auto loot and peek inside the crate. I have a feeling you need to know Fishing to see this journal at all.

Is it legal to sell these? If I sell a box I fished up that has one of these in it, is that an exploit?
