Introduction

These quests require level 10 and at least 1 point of fishing skill to accept. All should be possible to complete with such low skill. 75 fishing skill will allow all these daily quests to be completed without catching junk.

Only one Azeroth daily fishing quest can be completed each day: You may only complete one fishing daily each day from either Thunder Bluff, Undercity or Orgrimmar.

All the Azeroth daily fishing quests reward a Bag of Shiny Things, 1 or 2 points of fishing skill, and 250 reputation. The bag contains items worth a few Silver, gear such as Bright Baubles, and junk or novelty items. Rare items include:

• Bone Fishing Pole
• Glass Fishing Bobber
• Jeweled Fishing Pole
• Recipe: Captain Rumsey's Lager
• Strand Crawler
• Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat
• Weather-Beaten Journal

Completing all 5 quests in each city rewards a "Fish or Cut Bait" achievement for the relevant city. Completing all 3 Fish or Cut Bait achievements (all 15 daily quests) rewards the achievement Gone Fishin'.

Orgrimmar

All 5 Orgrimmar quests start from Razgar, standing near Lumak in the Valley of Honor. 1 out of a possible 5 is available each day.

Clammy Hands

• What to loot: 10 Monstrous Clam Meat.
• Where to loot it: Loot from Monstrous Clam found on the seabed in Bladefist Bay, north-eastern Durotar.
• Skill required: Fishing skill not used.

1-2 Monstrous Clam Meat are looted from each Monstrous Clam object, not caught using fishing. Looting is reported to sometimes waken a (friendly) baby Murloc.

A Furious Catch

• What to catch: Giant Furious Pike.
• Where to catch it: Southfury River, Durotar or Northern Barrens.
• Skill required: 25 to fish without catching junk.

A Golden Opportunity

• What to loot: 3 Golden Stonefish.

• Skill required: Fishing skill not used.

Thunder Ridge is south-west of the main entrance to Orgrimmar. Drowned Thunder Lizards can be found floating in the water at Thunder Ridge. Golden Stonefish are neutral creatures that swim around Thunder Ridge. This quest does not catch anything using fishing skill.

No Dumping Allowed

• What to catch: 6 Toxic Puddlefish.

• Skill required: 75 to fish without catching junk.

Sandy Carp can only be caught once your pole has been lured with a Stag Eye. The lure only lasts 10 minutes, so do not apply it until you are ready to start fishing.

Thunder Bluff

Thunder Bluff quests start from Kah Mistrunner, on the highest tier in the central island of Thunder Bluff. 1 out of a possible 5 is available each day.

• Where to catch it: Catch from Stonebull Lake, Mulgore, or pick them up from under the water.

The catch rate for Stonebull Crayfish is not high, so manually picking up creatures from the lake-bed should normally be quicker. Stonebull Lake is next to Bloodhoof Village.

Pond Preditors

• What to catch: 8 Azshara Snakeheads.

• Skill required: 75 to fish without catching junk.

Azshara Snakehead can be caught from the small pond opposite the bank/auction house in Thunder Bluff.

Each Blind Cavefish may contain Poshken's Ring, plus junk items, such as a Set of Rusty Keys.

Shiny Baubles

Shiny Stones can only be found around the base of the central column of rock, not the columns that support the 3 rises at the edge of the city.

Undercity

The Undercity quests start from Armand Cromwell, stood on a pier in the Magic Quarter. 1 out of a possible 5 is available each day.

Fish Head

Like Pike?

• What to catch: Corpse-Fed Pike.

Brightwater Lake is just north-east of Brill. Corpse-Fed Pike can only be caught once your pole has been lured with a Corpse Worm. You will gain a 10 minute Corpse Worm Bait buff.

Only one Bloated Frog is required to feed the monster 10 times. You will need to resummon the monster at least once. The Alliance Decoy Kit does not visually transform you into a member of the Alliance, but the Moat Monster will accuse you of being a dwarf.

Tadpole Terror

• Skill required: 25 to fish without catching junk.

New Dailies

1. Thay, April 2011:

   From the latest PTR notes:

   •New Cooking and Fishing Dailies have been added to Darnassus, Ironforge, Thunder Bluff, and Undercity.

   Anyone know if these are just copies of the SW ones (with locations slightly altered) or completly new.

   Also can you do only 1 or will this let you do 3 a day?

   Hopefully they may increase the prize pool from the dailies a little as well

   The PTR is currently still down, so nothing is known yet. The first Undercity quest (which was in the last PTR build) was very basic: A simple fish catch from open water, and delivery to the other side of the city. The reward was unchanged from the Stormwind/Orgrimmar dailies.

3. el, April 2011:

   You can still only do *one* Azeroth fishing daily per day. For example, Alliance pick either Stormwind, Ironforge or Darnassus. Once you complete one of the dailies, the other quests can't be taken.

1. el, April 2011:

   There are now details of the quests that have appeared so far on Azeroth Daily Fishing Quests (Alliance) and Azeroth Daily Fishing Quests (Horde). Hopefully more quests will appear when the new day starts on the PTRs - I'm sure plenty are still missing. Fortunately gnomes don't need sleep.

2. Nadal, April 2011:

   At least they're giving us the choice to use major faction capitals (Orgrimmar and Stormwind) or not, to do the daily quests. I just hope Silvermoon and Exodar will have the same treatment. It would be nice to see that Blizzard hasn't given up these capitals.

   Thanks for the update, a pity, but expected as it was unlikely they'ed force us to visit all 3 cities.

   Still unless they up the rewards people will stop doing them at 85.
   Once you have maxed fishing there seems to be little gained from doing the dailies.

4. NiceBloke, April 2011:

   Are there achievements for the new fishing dalies?

5. el, April 2011:

   No achievements... yet.

6. EIlhan, July 2011:

   I just flew past Stormwind Harbor, and noticed that the Bluetip Thresher there is now a level 15 beast, down from level 85. Some good news for lowbies who are on the Rock Lobster quest :)

7. Jimbra, April 2012:

   At low level, these quests are good for extra XP and skill points for leveling up. And even after one reaches max Fishing and max level, they are still good for rep building and leveling up your guild. So if you have a few minutes to spare, they are still worthwhile even when maxed out. This advice also applies to the Cooking daily quests.
