Dark Herring...Caught

1. hominids, February 2009:

   The Dark Herring was caught in a fangtooth herring school in Winter's Breath Lake.

2. palanthiel, February 2009:

   Wanted to add that I also caught it at this location, in a school.

3. Faderaven, February 2009:

   I caught this fish in a Fangtooth pool also. Was going to do Stonebulll but decided if it was going to be long and painful I might as well get a nice weapon...got it after about 50 casts! That was a nice change....

1. Eltressa, February 2009:

   I got this the other day from a Fangtooth pool in north Howling on my first cast. Since I was only there for the Northrend Angler achievement, it was a nice surprise. Especially since I haven't had any luck at all with crafty/ironjaw/giant rat/mr pinchy/etc >_>

2. Gungner11, April 2009:

   my lucky day! got my Giant sewer rat on 7th cast and my dark herring on my 13th cast now i just hope ill get that turtle soon
