Here is a link to a full tutorial on everything you need to know about fishing, the Fishing contest, the rewards from it, and Mr. Pinchy.

http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?source=live;wquest=8193&locale=enUS

Its a whole tutorial, so it wont fit in entirety here because of the 4000 character limit.

Yes, you need enough fishing skill to be able to fish in STV waters. I believe that's somewhere around 150~ fishing, but the more you have, the easier it is to catch the fish.

You need 200+ fishing to stop getting "Your Fish Got Away"

評論來自 64243

Is that true about needing 200 + fishing. I am 150 fishing and cant aford for the book to get expert fishing, and i still wanna do it....

評論來自 64243

Where is the quest giver?

評論來自 joebob06

I won the contest today with 225 fishing, it took me about 25 minutes to catch all 40 fish, it didn't seem like there was alot of competition though

評論來自 Velothi

It seems that the event is not that competitive anymore, I won it today, while I had 39 fishes I hearthstoned back to Booty Bay. I even got enuf time to get the last fish just outside Booty Bay to win the contest. No competition at all :)

評論來自 78301

it is indeed still quite competitive, I am on a PvP server, and there at least 20-30 other people trying to win the contest. I was getting ganked left and right, partly because i was killing the hordes of 19 twinks, but still, this is still a competition, and don't think that people have forgotten about it :D.

評論來自 Corbon

This quest is still heavily contested on my server. I participated in today's contest and ended up with 13 fishes (skill 375+20) when the winner was declared; at 02:22 PM!

Kinda funny to see both Horde and Alliance of Lv 35-70 fishing in the same spot ;)

The fishes disappear at Sunday 6:00 PM and the female goblin awards 23s for 5 fishes (but no reputation).

評論來自 Mordiceius

One of the best places to fish is Yojamba island.

Set your Hearthstone to Booty Bay and go to Yojamba. Around the entire island there are about 8-10 pools and in all my weeks fishing, no one ever goes there.

I've already won the competition twice and multiple times I've already got 40 fish before anyone else has.

評論來自 20383

Just did the tournament and I'm on a VERY low pop server, but it was insane the amount of people that were fishing! Horde were Everywhere and everyone was stealing eachothers holes, it was rediculous... The competition for this contest is NOT dead, it's as live as ever!

評論來自 scampor

Yojamba seemed really populated on my server >.< at least 3 others competing.

評論來自 MasterLoco

I won the contest yesterday in arround 17minutes... I just started moving from the bridge near Booty Bay @ pretty boy duncan upwards to the North.

I usualy found a new pool within 50-100 yards. 1 time I had to bridge 250ish yards I think but there wasn't really alot of competition. At least not from Horde side since like 10 Alliance were ganking everything on sight :>.

1 note tho. Having a scout riding ahead looking for the next pool is always handy.

評論來自 95219

I got 44 fish today, but only after someone had won the contest. I lagged out and then logged back in, to discover that my fish dropped their timer. Is this a bug or do I get to win the contest at exactly 2 o'clock next week?

評論來自 83352

Not sure if this is changed for all, or different at higher levels. I did the tournament last weekend and was receiving 80 silver per 5 Tastyfish. I hadn't done the tournament for a few levels, so I can't say when it changed for me (64 currently).

評論來自 63264

Yojamaba Island, coords 15 16.

評論來自 smashfanDS

Do you lose rep with Bloodsail Buccaneers if you submit this quest?

評論來自 78626

The amount of gold you get is now determined on you level.

On my 70 I got around 1g 15s for 5 tastyfish, then on my 34 I got around 23s for 5 tastyfish.

評論來自 VanCleef

This quest doesn't give you any Booty Bay/Steamwheedle reputation when turned in, and your Bloodsail reputation isn't affected either.

評論來自 146872

I need this trinket.Can I fish them,save them without logging,wait till 2:00,then hand in?

評論來自 110063

Repeatable quests do not yield experience or level 70 compensation.
The reward is dependant on your level.

評論來自 sorcerer25

this quest DO NOT require some level of character or fishing
i repeat ! DO NOT REQUIRE ANY LEVEL

the required level of fishing is the level of zone not quest (130 but ofc you can have a lower level and improve it with some items ;) ), and the level of your character can be 1 but you don't stand a chance, ganking and concurrence are like crazy during this contest :((
i didn't manage to win the contest, but i saw this q from level 20 or so !

btw, according to the info given in game on the tastyfishes items the timer is 4h not 2h (so ! long after 4pm), but when you get disconnected that can be cause of your computer, your network connection or ... the server, and that's a reason to lose the fishes ! :(

評論來自 162723

I got a lvl 19 twink and I do not want any more XP to it.. Does this contest give any XP when turned in?

評論來自 71027

so uhh... Did they remove the level requirement on the trinket?

cuz i know it used to be 60

評論來自 81123

If I recall, if there is a level requirement on an item it would say so.

So yes, they removed the level requirement on the trinket.

評論來自 starsword

Many more people seem to be attempting to win the competition lately since it was revealed that there would be an achievement for having won it.

評論來自 107438

Are you competing with other people to get this or is it at your own pace?

評論來自 cytexnl

Just won this contest as I'm preparing achievements for WotLK, here are some tips that might come in handy

1. Put your Hearthstone in Booty bay
2. Be in Stranglethorn Vale 15 minutes before the event starts so you can find a nice and deserted spot
3. Have Find Fish tought by Weather-Beaten Journal
4. A friend to kill people of the opposing faction/jump in pools of your own faction (If you're really THAT desperate)
5. Kill processes in your Operating System's task manager, after you HS you don't want to be beaten by someone while you're still on the loading screen of the inn ^___^
6. Keybind your fishing skill, so you can instantly recast after you've looted(SHIFT+click looting that is)
7. Bring a Skybreaker Whip/ Riding Crop or a personal Paladin escort:-) to speed up travel time in between pools

On a sidenote, I gave Yojomba Island a try but I went somewhere else quite fast as there isn't a pool up 100% of the time which makes it quite in-efficient.

Good luck and happy fishing!

評論來自 Djuntas

Just wanna say its super lame to have some ganking-buddy whit you.

Today I was gonna win the contest, but a twink and his friend tough it was fun, to interrupt me. An pot and 3 mins later I had lost.

Just think about it.. fair competition for everyone.

評論來自 195921

Woot finally won the Fishing Extravaganza today after attempts since lvl 20 and I'm now 70!

If others are looking to win this event some tips to win are

-You should set your hearth to Booty Bay! saves alot of time walking back to the turn in.

-I've found that having another 70 follow you stops ganks, and if it's a paladin you get Crusade Aura buff which is awesome 20% faster mount. You'll blow away the competition.

-Start around the "Ruins of Aboraz" (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/maps=33:400586) it usually has at least 3-4 pools spawn there right away

-Use a Fishing Mod A MUST Helps cast faster (http://wow.curse.com/downloads/details/1531/)

-Be sure to have At Least 225 fishing to get rid of the "Fish got away" Message

-Just a bit of luck and have FUN =D

Good luck all

I would recommend everyone try this at least once. You won't win unless you're incredibly lucky, you'll be competing with people who're insanely fast to the point I believe they have a map of Stranglethorn complete with school spawn points tattooed on the back of their hand but still you'll get addicted to tastyfish farming and there's always the chance of a rare fish.

評論來自 Vashra

Bring elixirs of water walking so you don't have to deal with all the crazy terrain in stranglethorn at all.

評論來自 Powerage

Tried this as a level 80 rogue and I never stood a chance. Those with mounted speed movement and water walking abilities will always win this. It never took me over 10 seconds to find another school of tasty fish and I still only had 20 when the winner was selected. Saw lots of players with paladins on /follow for mounted speed, this will be my last attempt at this quest.

評論來自 280976

won first time on the 14th my first try since the day it started

it was very simple gank everyone get everyone fighting and ya can win in 16 minutes
guild members helping you start fights helps
well thats what i did on eradar

you dont need potions lures nothing

just bring any rod 450 skill and 3 fully geared freinds

oh forgot i did use find fish skill

評論來自 voporak500

What happens if to people get the 40 tastyfish at the same time and talk to the quest-giver? do they both win?

評論來自 63080

failed. I find it sad that todays winner had all of 3 fishing achievments done.

but what really gets me is that I had 33 tastyfish, and 10 worthless items

評論來自 315400

The char had 3 fishing achievements done, but the player could possibly have many achievements on other characters.

評論來自 242565

remember to set the fast quest reciving in your interface menu, or some one else with that thing could be "fast clicker" and will win the prize, its really annoying, i think...

評論來自 332243

If you choosed the fishing pole, can you then do it again next week? Me want both.

評論來自 177317

It's a good thing to know that if you're repairing your Booty Bay rep in order to do the competition, you need to be neutral with Booty Bay in order to talk to the innkeeper.

評論來自 Felixia

They have a 4-hour duration from the time they are caught.

評論來自 Felixia

This quest yields 1g90s per turn-in at level 80.

評論來自 Nawkaga

The rejected original choice for the title of this quest was "Master Baiter."

評論來自 303838

Has anyone else noticed that since achievements, this tournament has gotten increasingly more violent and chaotic? I won the contest twice loooong before achievements even came out, but ever since they did, it's gotten worse and worse. A friend of mine is trying to win it as it is the last achievement he needs for his salty title. I thought it was bad pre-wotlk, these days it is not uncommon to have ENTIRE GUILDS run along the coast, slaughtering the opposing faction and greifing their own.

Achievements, are SERIOUS BUSINESS

PS: Stumbled across this, apparently achievements are such serious business, that people are willing to pay $40 to get them...

評論來自 Sleutel

Who else thinks that these rewards need to be seriously buffed?

Fishing pole: More +Fishing than the epic Kalu'ak one (by 10), but doesn't have the underwater breathing.
Trinket: Slower swim speed than the Sea Turtle mount.

I got my trinket today, and it's just going to sit in my bank. :\

This contest takes place from 2 to 4pm server time, so find out ahead what the offset is from your local time and your server.

評論來自 Skovmand

Finally got this :) The competition has been lowered quite a bit after the kaluak tournament came out.

評論來自 579008

Before i talk about this tournament, let me share some info on what i did
There i was very bored with nothing to do , so i decide to take up fishing and cooking to level, not only for the neat stuff they offer but also for some achievement points ( i wasn't aiming for any titles initially)
and just like that i started to lvl them, as a lvl 80 human warrior
things were going pretty good, lvls were going up and before i knew it i was lvl 300 in fishing and bought the fishing pole from the kalu'ak
on that sunday i decided to give this tournament a try, since i've always heared so many things about it,
this was the first time i ever tried this, only info i had was what i read here and i'm sorry to say but it went like this:
got in booty bay with 2 minutes to go, found myself a school ( i did have the find fish ability)
and waited for it to be announced, i started north of BB, around the area where pretty boy duncan is, got a few but there were other people there so i decided to go on the southern beach, so i had enough time to ride to the southern beach and found many many schools all to myself, all i did was focus on getting the bobber into the school and before i knew it i had 40 of those tastyfish , one mystake i made was not having the HS set in BB but i had time to ride back to BB all the way from the southern beach and it seems i won by a long streak, others weren't even near enough to 40 fish
so here's some stuff that helped me a lot :
-i did this on the easter weekend, so the competition wasn't very high
-have enough fishing skill
- most of all, i play on a RP server so there wasn't any texas chainsaw massacre i hear that happens on pvp servers

A MUST is having a HS in BB
after this it took about 3-4 days to get all my other fishing achievements and get the Salty title, and now i got the trinket that transforms me into a fish and when i swim in the stormwind canals people go " wow wtf is that ? how can i get ?"

評論來自 596707

Just recently won the tournament with out any real strategy.
what I did was just equip my fishing hat add a lure and I ran along the left coast with water walking
and just kept fishing till I got 40 and hearthed back to booty bay.
here are some tips I picked up

dont fish from other people's pools (waste of your time)

prepare 5mins before it begins

also try to do it when there is an important event on (less competition)

評論來自 Thottbot

are the fish tradable or are they BoP

評論來自 Thottbot

You can fish in the east and west coast of SV.
There is also one more problem, there are lots of elements of pvp play too, so before the tournament take care about..... your bodyguard:P

評論來自 Thottbot

every time I try the contest it says im to late. Whats wrong? I go on Sundays.

評論來自 Thottbot

u have to get the quest befor 2pm server and then head to the coast out side of the city look for ripples in the water like some on through a rock into the water then just cast away make sure ur bobber lands inside the ripples or u wont catch tasty fish and when 1 runs out move along the coast and find another one but dont go to far cuz they respawn about every 2 minutes or so. rinse repeat til u have 49 then mount up and go turn in!

評論來自 Thottbot

As a note to anyone who is thinking about attempting to win this competition: if you can't get the 40 tastyfish in under 30 minutes, don't bother trying as there is usually a winner within 20 minutes or so.

Next week ill get the pole^^

評論來自 Allakhazam

My second time out. I'd been looking forward to this tourney since I found out that my wife would be taking the kid to a birthday party this afternoon. A switch since I took him to a friend's B-Day party yesterday, while she was at a bridal shower. And then, while at the park yesterday, he fell off of a play set at a park, tearing the skin back on an inch of the top of the rim of his ear.

He took a dozen stictches, had to be anesthitized, and we don't get home till midnight. But, resilency in a 5-year old should be measured in 5-digit numbers, and he was raring to go to his friend's party.

Hooray! I still get to fish (Other parental emotions have been deleted due to excessive length, and were irrelevant to this set-up).

I set things up, pick a spot, log out to work on an alt, log back on just as it starts, when some lousy cheaters interfere with my casting, to help a guildie win (heh, which didn't happen). Opening trade windows, challenging for duels, and using their toons to cover my bobber so I couldn't click on it.

Now, these were lousy cheaters. Lousy in theire morals, certainly. But lousy in their tactics, as they had up to 3 of them doing this me at one time. Far better ot have spread out, hitting multiple nodes, reducing the number of fishies the competitors could take, to the benefit of their guildie, whom they wouldn't be reducing the size of his node (and considering the prior 24 hours, imagine your mood in dealing with such childish behavior).

So, no second win for me. But, I did catch all 3 rare fish, which had been my main goal anyway. Everything I've read says these are very rare fish, so I wasn't expecting to catch any, but I caught them all in 1 hour 20 minutes of fishing. Admittedly, the time rate for catches has increased, since 2.1, but has the drop rate changed? Or should I have gone out and bought a lottery ticket today? ^_~

2nd question: How common is such boorish, juvenile intereference in the tourney on PvE servers (PvP servers you sign up for anything goes)?

Heh, and thanks for the thanks, Seravais. yet another of my "D'Oh" moments, lol. "Scholar" may not be part of your name, but your guide is definitely scholarly.

where do I get this quest?

Edited, Wed Oct 12 04:30:55 2005

評論來自 Allakhazam

Tried this quest today and was a bit dissappointed to be honest. It's basically a ratrace where a group of players run up and down the coast racing to fish in small discolored circles in the water. The circles move evry so often so it's a hectic ratrace instead of anything really resembling a rl fishing tournament. I'm sure it's fun for those who enjoy that type of thing, but it's certainly not for me. My biggest enjoyment of fishing is that I don't feel pressured or crowded while doing it, but this "tournament" removes that stuff from fishing and turns it into, well, a ratrace.

評論來自 Allakhazam

Who do you have to talk to to get this quest?

評論來自 Allakhazam

I've been lucky enough to win TWICE! So now I got both! Also I've gotten the Lucky Fishing Hat and Nat Pagles Boots! Now if I can get the Queenfish or whatever that gives the Eternium Fishing Line I will have everything! Nat Pagle look out! I'm gonna fish me up a Ashbringer! Haha jokes... :D

評論來自 Allakhazam

does anyone kno the required fishing skill or the lvl requirement if any? and where is this quest?

評論來自 Allakhazam

anyone know if it is possible to win it twice and get both rewards? Got the trinket today but the pole would be cool to have aswell.

評論來自 Allakhazam

You don't pick up the quest, it's just a turn-in like the Scourgestones for Argent Dawn.
When the server clock hits 2pm, the guy in Booty Bay where you turn this in (over near the engineer portal guy) announces that the fishing extravaganza has begun. Between then and 4pm, there are little swirly fish-catching spots where you can catch the tastyfish and rare fish. First person to catch 40 and turn them in finishes the quest. Everyone else turns in their tastyfish to the female assistant next to him and any rare fish to the robot assistant.

alright so I'm working on getting my fishing skill up so that I can do this... both for the pole and for the trinket... I'll prolly take the trinket first cuz... hey... no matter who the hell you are if you're not a shaman it'll make it easier for me to get away from you in the water :p

I'm alliance... and every horde in STV is scandalous it seems... level 70s chilling outside nessingwary's expedition and killing the level 30s and camping em... it's weak and pathetic and you should be ashamed of yourself if you do this. Maybe I should go to barrens and start picking off your lowbs just cuz I can.

Doing this undermines the fun of the game and for a new player in a pvp server that's a bad thing. In a PVP server you need all the players you can get or the game isn't as fun. So stop running off the people who aren't very good at it yet.

I'm going to get the big iron fishing pole from desolace for the competition. Seems like the +20 to fishing (while small) would be a good place to start.

PS

Don't kill people equipped with fishing poles ya loser!

評論來自 Allakhazam

is this quest repeatable (once a fishing tournament)?

評論來自 Allakhazam

I've never participated before, but as I understand that time will be of the essence when I do try....

Do I understand correctly that you can just be out at the coast at 2 when the contest starts and then after catching your fish turn them in?

Alternatively, if I'm wrong is there a need to "accept a quest" in order to participate? Do you do that right at 2? Or is it something you can do beforehand and have it out of the way?

This quest promotes very rude behavior, everyone racing around stealing peoples "schools", so rude. Then these players seem to think it's alright to do it all the time so then come over and steal your school of fish well after the tourney.

評論來自 Allakhazam

Hi what level do you have to be and what level do your fishing skill have to be to be able to enter, i have another charater with very high fishing but level is on alittle over 30.

評論來自 Allakhazam

No idea on the level req, but I won this the first week on a new BC server at level 30. Did it in just under 30 minutes, had to avoid mobs a lot and use +75 lures on my wimpy +5 pole, but with only 225 skill at the start I never saw any "got away" messages. So if theres no "quest" level requirement, it could be done at whatever level you can train journeyman (75-150) fishing at. Which is 10 I think? You'd need a team to keep mobs away of course.

Theres was maybe 1 other person fishing the first sunday on a brand new BC server, since 99% of the "serious" players wouldn't dare to stop leveling long enough to hit ~150 fishing. (lol) Although some of those "serious" players were buying up all my cooked deviates like hotcakes, since I saw them in pirate/ninja form all the time at the AH's. The modest time I spent skilling to 150 paid off in spades, both gold and these.

Won it the next week at level 49, in 24 minutes flat ;)
There was some competent competition then, though still low numbers compared to an established server.

I heard from someone who had their 40 fish but forgot to set hearth in BB, he showed up about a minute after I won. I would say thats a requirement to win if theres anyone else seriously trying. The other requirement would be understanding that you recast until its in the pool, I heard lots of people complain in general chat that their drop rate was 1 in 5, if it lands in the pool its around 90-95%, the rest is usually one of the alchemy fish, stranglekelp or a blue if you're really lucky.

I did get really lucky with a string of 7 or so pools in a row and lots of bouncing bobbers right after casting...the last 25 fish came so fast. A little non-combative fun and thrills on a sunday :)

I'm pretty sure you can do this quest as many times as you want, well max 1 time a Sunday. BTW I won the fishing pole on my server Durotan in 35 minutes! Wee! =) I clicked so damn fast thru the npc text to close the tourney that I didn't have time to read what he said lol

評論來自 Allakhazam

Well this is usless for a level 60, no offence to Blizzard but WTF is wrong with them?

A lower level would benefit much more from these things, let's say level 40? or 45...

I think as a priest it is much easier to get about with levitate, so far I have been all over the place and opened most fly paths at level 35:) I do use a lot of feathers but hey you can farm them from moonkin or whatever teh bear-birds in Auberdine drop them every time. Plus I'm a tailor so I made that silk belt that gives 15% swim speed.

BTW where do you start the quest?

It took me over 4 months of Tourneys, but i finally won one.
The Grasshopper has become the Master (Angler)!

Some tips from a Master Angler for those frustrated from not winning (tested)

- Fish! Fish like the wind!

- Set your Hearthstone to Booty Bay. This will get you back faster once you get your 40 Speckled Tastyfish. Don't run, don't ride, don't fly. Hearth! Also, don't dawdle while turning in the fish. Right after I turned in my fish, there was another player right behind me. He was the first loser that day. ;) Speed is paramount!

- Be ready. The tourney begins at 2:00 P.M. server time. Be setup and ready to go before then. If you start the tourney late, you will not win. (Although at 23s per 5 Tastyfish, and by selling reagent fish (Firefin Snapper, Oily Blackmouth, Stonescale Eels) you can still make some money for your efforts.)

- It helps to be higher than level 40 for two reasons: The mobs won't aggro you quite as far away AND a mount is almost a must to get to the schools.

- Fishing skill.... by the time I won, my skill was 300 plus modifiers (up to 30). You need to be high enough level to fish in the area without seeing, "Your Fish Got Away" every other hit. So, a high skill is important, but I don't know a 'good' level to suggest. If you have +Fishing bonuses, use them.

- Bait.... Basically, don't waste precious fishing time by applying bait. This ties-in to the above--have a high enough Fishing Skill that you don not need to rely on bait. Bait increases your level so that you have more time between your Bobber jumping and you clicking on it. It does not improve your chance to get a bite, nor does it improve the chances of the types of fish that you will catch. If you want to use bait, apply it at 1:59 P.M. (server time) just before the tourney starts. If you are applying bait, your bobber is not in the water.

- Casting... When you cast, make sure your bobber is within the School of Tastyfish. Sometimes, because of the camera angle, it looks like it's in, but if you move the camera around you will see that you are not. If in doubt, recast. It takes less time to recast than spending the 'channeling time' and coming up with a Mithrilhead Trout or Spotted Yellowtail to realize that you were off.

- Assign the Fishing skill to a hot key so that you can cast/recast as quickly as possible.

- Location... You can find Schools of Tastyfish anywhere along Stranglethorn Vale except in Booty Bay. I suggest islands or peninsulas because you increase your shoreline in a smaller coverage area. Try to keep travel time to a minimum. If you are running/riding to locate the Schools, you are not fishing. Also, try to find a spot where not too many other players are fishing. If multiple bobbers are in a school, it makes it disapear faster. Look for the next school.

- Know the area It helps to know the general spawn locations of the Schools. There may be add-ons that show schools, but after a few fishing outtings, you will be able to know where the schools pop up.

Other notes:
I was (finally) able to win the tournament by using the above strategies. I did not use any mods or add-ons--it can be done without them. I have no suggestions for any mods or addons.

If there are unscrupulous members of the other faction that like to pick on unarmed fishermen, and you get killed you probably will not win the tourney. If your ghost is running back to your corpse, you are not fishing.

It seems that there are a set number of schools that spawn and a slightly higher number of spawn locations. When one school is depleted, another will pop in one of the other locations. Hopefully, it will pop close to you. If several players are fishing the same school, it will go away quicker. Look for the next spawn.

All tourneys start at 2:00 server time. Most are won by 2:35 - 2:45. You should be getting about 1 Tastyfish per minute (average) or better. You will catch things other than Tastyfish, just loot and recast. You should have 40 Tastyfish before 2:40.

Even if someone beats you to the turn in, you can still get some $$ from your efforts by turning in stacks of 5 Tastyfish. You will also probably catch some 'reagent' fish or Stranglekelp which are used by Alchemists. You can either sell these (Stonescale Eels gennerally go for 1g each) or make reagents if you are an Alchemist. During my time doing the Torneys, I was able to catch all of the rare fish, so I had gear with +Fishing Skill.

Besides the 3 Rare Fish that give you +Fishing gear, I also fished up the Rockhide Strongfish--a fish that can be used as a mace! Imagine whacking opponents in Battle Grounds with a fish!

Happy Angling!

P.S. If you play Horde toon, you can get Nat Pagle's Extreme Angler FC-5000 which is a good Fishing Pole. It doesn't have as high of a Fishing bonus as the reward from this tourney, but id does have more DPS. ;)

The trinket is FUN!

Not sure if it's been mentioned before, but if you have the spell Find Fish
尋找魚類

(I think it's a book that drops randomly when you fish and when you click on it, it gives you the skill to find fish, similar to how you find minerals or undead) it's even better for this tourney.

There was a bug a few Sundays back and no pools showed up in the water visually, although they were there if you hovered over the sea. Having that tracking item would have been super helpful...

Is this quest turn-in still bugged so that npc respawns after a while so you can actually turn in quest many times same day?

On other hand there is way more fishers to compete for pole and trinket now.
