Icecrown, Storm Peaks, Zul'Drak
el, April 2009:
...all now contain fishable water. I'm off to investigate fully, but from initial catches, there may be no new types of fish. Detail to follow.
Curiously, this was a very late change. I routinely check these zones on PTRs, and throughout testing these waters were not fishable.

No. More details please. I'm aware that the minimap is bugged, and pools in Crystalsong Forest below can be seen while in Dalaran.

Haven't been able to find any pools outside of VH, only ones that were bugging like El said.

I've added information for Icecrown, Storm Peaks and Zul'Drak. The first 2 are a lot like the coast of southern Northrend, except have higher skill (550 for no junk). The few inland areas of Icecrown both have coastal fish. Zul'Drak is identical to inland Dragonblight/Borean Tundra. No new pools found anywhere.
el, April 2009:
Curious diversion: 10 days before Icecrown gained fish, Richard Bartle observed the juxtaposition** between the lack of fish, and the shark visible in the water. So if the Baby Shark pet suddenly becomes fishable in Icecrown, we'll know what to call it...
(Although the icon for the pet is now being used for a junk item - that pet is becoming the new Ashbringer - doomed to be forever rumored to be caught from fishing.)

Icecrown

I'm not sure if the large pool under Icecrown Citadel counts as 'open water', but there's no fish in it anway.
The Lich King, April 2009:
There are two areas in the area around my citadel i can think of that i go to fish at. Deep underneath, where some meddling adventurer found my heart, there is a pool. Try there. Also, those annoying Scarlet Crusaders have an island you can fish off of. No guarantees of there bein any there, i might have emptied the pond before you even make it there!
