			<description>&#60;p&#62;I haven't seen anything about this yet, so yeah, &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I'm sure most are familiar with it, but with patch 4.3, came transmogrification; which allows you to change the appearance of your gear to look like another item of the same slot and material.&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowwiki.com/Transmogrification&#34;&#62;http://www.wowwiki.com/Transmogrification&#60;/a&#62;  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;This means not only can you can  showcase your old MC and BWL epics again, but it opens up a whole world of creative outfit and costume ideas. Finally you can show up to your raid in appropriate gear but looking like the master angler you are, or pwn some noobs in pvp with fish daggers.&#60;br /&#62;
Here's what I've transmogrificated  my lock's armor to look like, taking into account all visible slots.&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/profile=34041536&#34;&#62;Cloth Transmogrification Fishing Example&#60;/a&#62;&#60;br /&#62;
and here's an example of how my rogue looks&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/profile=34041543&#34;&#62;Leather Transmogrification Fishing Example&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I've found its been kind of difficult to find shoulders that don't take away from the outfit,&#60;br /&#62;
I think the uncommon offhand fish like ol' ironjaw or the dark herring would be great weapons to use for transmogrifying.&#60;br /&#62;
I haven't tried any creations to make a fisher mail or plate wearer, and I imagine they could be a bit more difficult.&#60;br /&#62;
But yeah, I'd love input and especially to see what kind of gear other people have been using to make their own creations, hopefully get some new ideas and such for us all.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Last Sunday and This Sunday/Saturday, I tried the STV competition for the first time, altogether twice, and the Derby once, for the first time. This is on a Normal server, and I am an Undead Frost DK with Find Fish, +5 Fishing  Boots and a +5 Rod.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Last Sunday, I started in the northern STV area and stayed around that area, catching 24 Tastyfish before the inevitable announcement of the Master Angler took place. I was discouraged, but knew that I would get better. I blamed it on the poor aim of the Lure.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;This Saturday, I tried the Fishing Derby. I started in the Heart of the River in Sholazar Basin, and met with a Blood Elf. We half-grouped together, she buffed me with battle buffs and I buffed her with Path of Frost. Kind of an unfair trade considering the battle buffs will help me in no way, but whatever. Anyways, I see a pair of people come along, one of them a dwarf. The dwarf fishes the pools I am at, and I think, 'Damn douchebag.' But hey, it's a competition and I can't really blame him. The contest begins, and there are no pools to fish so I fly up the river(s) quickly and within the first 10 minutes the winner is announced, I have only fished about 3 or 4 pools and caught about 8 Pygmy Suckerfish. I am discouraged.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Today (Sunday), I tried the competition again with a better feeling of winning, as I am in a good spot and I see no people around the pool. I spot a few people coming in with mounts and there is a Night Elf slightly above the area that I was planning on heading. How dare him! &#38;gt;:[   So the contest begins and suddenly the pools disappear, I wasn't sure if they disappeared or not but soon enough I found more pools. There are just WAY. TOO. MANY. PEOPLE. FISHING. I mean god, there are always at the least 1 person fishing at a pool, only twice in the contest I found a lone pool. Again the Master Angler is announced, with the same unlucky number as the last one, twenty-four tastyfish.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;That is where YOU come in! You tell me about all your tips and tricks, lend me a hand, and I could within the next 6 weeks win the STV Fishing Extravaganza (Or the Fishing Derby, really want that Arcanite Rod though)!  I hope I do win within the next 6 weeks at least, since Booty Bay is getting screwed I don't think the contest will exist anymore and there goes my chance to get the best fishing rod EVAR (as of now). I already know all the tips listed on the STV Contest Strategy page.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I would consider myself an especially lucky Fisherman and would like others with lucky experiences with WoW fishing to share theirs on this page so maybe we can find out who is the luckiest :)&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Anyway here are my fishing stories so far after 858 items caught and 268 skill:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;About a month ago I decided I would pick up fishing on my lvl 80 (Mightykiwi / Aerie Peak) I started from lvl 1 skill in Ironforge - after about 38 casts I caught Old Ironjaw. (Guild saw me get 25 fish achievement then Old Ironjaw was a good laugh). I stopped fishing coz I wanted to show off my 25 fish/Old Ironjaw achievements together for a while :P&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The other day I decided to start fishing again, after getting some other fishing achievements (scavenger, deadliest catch etc.) and catching a few hundred fish to level my Cooking which I was levelling at the same time, I decided to have a shot at Old Crafty. My first trip to Orgimmar I must have only done 50 casts or so before I had to go because of RL stuff, my second trip there even less because Horde kept killing me. My third time out there I caught Old Crafty in 20 casts or so.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Just tonight I caught the 15 Pound Mud Snapper on my 4th cast in Elwynn Forest. To be fair I probably did 50 or so casts the night before trying to get the same fish.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;So in 858 casts, most of them not aimed at these Achievements, I got Old Ironjaw, Old Crafty and One that didn't get away Achievements&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Everybody else please share their luckiest experiences so we can compare :)&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;(p.s I have screenshot's)

			<description>&#60;p&#62;So my guild is hosting a 2 day fishing contest to try to get people involved in helping to get the achievment and new fish feast.  What I'm told is that it doesn't matter where you fish, as long as you fish in pools.  I was thinking about fishing pools in Wrath as I never  got the turtle mount but was wondering if anyone had any advice or tricks.  Where might the most pools, or most respawns happen?  Anywhere in the world!&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Thanks for any input :)

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I'd like to fish up a few stacks of Lavascale Catfish as soon as possible. Since Deepholm is locked until 82, any estimates as to how hard it might or might not be to fish in Uldum at level 80? Would it just be constant aggro from mobs, or are there some relatively safe spots?

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Hey guys, I would just like to tell you that after 3 grueling days and 1783 fish later, I can confirm that the Darkwood fishing pole still drops after 4.0.3a! I fished it up in Everstill lake, on a rocky outcrop away from Lakeshire in Redridge Mountains. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;It's a beautiful pole, and I was happy I was able to grab it still. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Heres a SS of proof:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://img543.imageshack.us/f/wowscrnshot120410194024.jpg/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://img543.imageshack.us/f/wowscrnshot120410194024.jpg/&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Sorry, forgot to show proof that it was post 4.0.3a...I guess you can see that I am wearing a gilneas tabard.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;So out fishing The Frozen Sea last night with the officer of my fishing guild (trying to get him his sea turtle mount, Ive got mine) and low and behold, someone is fishing in our &#34;super secret never ending&#34; pool hotspot. We were cautious approaching as he was an Allie flagged for PvP.  When we got closer we approached him as fisherman not enemies. (waved, bowed and degeared to poles only) We were astonished when we got no reply or response. We camped directly next to him and fished for atleast 2 hours. The Allie never budged! Was constantly casting/looting, nonstop! We left for a few hours and came back to restock bags only to find the Allie still there casting (twice as fast as us, btw) We instantly realized he must be a fishing botter and killed him on sight. He did not defend himself at all, just kept fishing. To end my story Id like to say this: Fishing Botters Beware! You drop AH prices and disgrace all real fisherman! I will be checking this spot frequently and am killing ALL botters on sight!  Anyone else notice fish botters in Northrend? Gimme name and they will be hunted (atleast on Draka Realm) Shame on Fish Botters of Both Factions!

			<description>&#60;p&#62;so today was my first win.  it's very exciting to finally be able to turn into an ugly fish.  anyways, i contribute most of my win to luck.  i woke up from a nap right before the contest started and just decided to give it a try even though i didn't think i'd get there in time.  i also had no trouble with griefers on either faction, though i did spot a well-known alliance griefer before the contest while i was in Booty Bay.  but a good portion of my win was thanks to good strategy.  most of that strategy can be found &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.elsanglin.com/stranglethorn_extravaganza_strategy.html&#34;&#62;on this page&#60;/a&#62;.  i'm here to reiterate some of that knowledge and hopefully get you guys a step closer to that Salty title&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;1. Find Fish&#60;br /&#62;
it's common sense but i had &#34;find fish&#34; on, so i could see the pools of tastyfish on my minimap.  if you don't have it already, &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.elsanglin.com/2_3_changes.html#tracking_journal&#34;&#62;you can find more info on that here&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;2. Get There Early&#60;br /&#62;
got there early enough to set my hearth to Booty Bay and waited out on the coast for the contest to begin.  depending on where your hearth is, about 1:40-1:45 server time is a good time to head down there&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;3. Water Walking&#60;br /&#62;
if you're not a shaman, collect them from fishing dailies or get an alchemist to create them for you.  water walking's freedom is essential to helping you save much needed time when traveling from one pool to another.  and for you priests, don't rely on levitate either.  you'll need water walking specifically so you can mount up on the water&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;4. Stay Away From the Crowd:  Where to Start&#60;br /&#62;
i read two very important pieces of info on &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.elsanglin.com/stranglethorn_extravaganza_strategy.html&#34;&#62;this page&#60;/a&#62; that definitely gave me my edge.  first i read that there was no real place to start fishing, though the person who wrote the guide suggested starting in the center of the western coast.  so i did that and i didn't run into people for a good ten minutes.  it makes sense, most people would start at one edge of the coast and work their way towards the other.  and when they do that, they're busy dealing with the crowd taking their tastyfish&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;5. Stay Away From the Crowd:  Do the Opposite&#60;br /&#62;
the other important piece of info i read was &#34;You must learn to adapt to what other anglers are doing, and normally do the opposite.&#34;  this tip may have been the one that gave me my win.  in the past, i would fish anywhere.  if three people were trying to grab fish from a pool, i'd jump in.  i mean, any piece of fish is worth fishing for, right?  wrong.  if you're spending your entire time competing for pools of fish, then you're wasting your time.  the more people fishing out of one pool drains that pool faster and forces you to travel more often than you should.  stay away from the crowd.  when i saw a group of people coming at me from one direction, i'd try to stay ahead of them, or i would run towards them and look for pools of respawned fish&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;6. Research Beforehand! Know What You Want&#60;br /&#62;
i didn't have trouble with this but i thought i'd share the tip anyways.  once you've gotten your fish and you're ready to turn it in, choose your reward and complete the quest as soon as possible.  i've read stories about people trying to figure out which prize they want as another  person snuck up behind them and took first prize for themselves.  it's common sense but definitely something to keep in mind&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;well, i slept through yesterday's Kalu'ak Fishing Derby, so i'll give it a try next week.  if i win, then that means i'm doing something right and i'll be back here to start a thread on it.  see you guys, and happy fishing!

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Looking back at how fishing skill had serious impact on your chance to catch something, I question why Blizzard has included BoP one hour lures that grant you +100 skill (&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=46006&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - Glow Worm.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;Glow Worm&#60;/a&#62;). Sure they might be very useful for leveling your fishing, but when you're at 450 skill you might as well want to vendor them. At least I did so with some of my lures, but then I decided to save them, in case Blizzard makes them normal lures some time in the future and I will be able to sell them at AH/transfer them to my alts.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;In vanilla WoW days you had to have maximum fishing skill and had to use best fishing gear and lures available, so you could fish in Bay of Storms for money. In TBC you had to be well geared too to be able to catch fishes in Terokkar's lakes. Now in WotLK you need a maximum skill and a 75 lure to be able to catch all fishes you need for &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=43015&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - Fish Feast.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;Fish Feast&#60;/a&#62;. Zones that require you to have more than 525 skill don't actually provide better fishes. How many of you actually made more than one &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=43478&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - Gigantic Feast.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;Gigantic Feast&#60;/a&#62;?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I only need to win STV Extravaganza now for my title (got as close as 39 fishes so far) and I'm wondering what I will do after that. Sure it might be fun for some people to win the contest twice for both the trinket and the pole, but I don't feel like doing it twice and making it harder for other people to get the title. Compared to the Undying title I have, Salty requires much more work and patience, as losing the contest several weeks in a row when you thought that you are about to win it, is really sad. Well, at least I can spend the rest of the contest time to fish for money and possible rare catches (got only one &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19971&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - High Test Eternium Fishing Line.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;High Test Eternium Fishing Line&#60;/a&#62; so far, so saving it for an &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19970&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - Arcanite Fishing Pole.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;Arcanite Fishing Pole&#60;/a&#62; I hope to win someday).&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Overall fishing in WotLK seems uninteresting. Yes, I can make money by selling Fish Feast, as I have about 1k+ &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.wowhead.com/?item=43007&#34; title=&#34;Wowhead - Northern Spices.&#34; class=&#34;nocolor&#34;&#62;Northern Spices&#60;/a&#62; on my main char, but I want some excitement from the profession. I got all possible achievements, except for the one mentioned above and I want more. Maybe some really hard stuff like catching all those fishes, that got away. That would keep me busy for some time or catching 100k fishes, which isn't hard, but sure takes more time to get, than 1k for the title. I still have to see fishing rings and some of the rarer TBC fishing drops, such as crocs (make it an achievement too, come on), but all in all every time I think about fishing in WotLK, I get excited and then in a second I tell myself  &#34;Wait, there is nothing interesting to do actually.&#34;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I'm not an angler, just a fisherman, a sissy by someone's standards as I didn't bother to level my fishing skill to maximum until WotLK arrived, but after that it became a way to pass time in game without mindless killing or farming reputation or whatever.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I am curious if anyone has found an AddOn that changes the color of your cast bar when your bobber bobs?  Often times I fish while doing other things and if another fisherman/fisherwoman comes by, I lose sync with my fishing.  If anyone knows of an AddOn like this, please let me know.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I won the Tournament last week and I wanted to share with others my strategy for winning. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;First off, my husband and I both wanted to win this contest because we both wanted the &#34;Salty&#34; title. So we took turns competing. One Sunday, I'd fish while he ran around looking for pools, keeping the opposite faction off my back, and fishing in other peoples' pools if they were close by. The next Sunday, he'd fish while I ran around doing what he'd done the previous Sunday. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;My husband won the tournament on Mother's Day. Everyone figures he won because it was a holiday and everyone was spending time with their family, but I'm sure we still had a lot of competition. I don't think winning it on a holiday makes it any less of a feat than winning it on any other day. You still have to beat everyone that's competing back to the quest giver.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;After he won, I was able to compete in the tournament every Sunday and he'd run around scouting for pools and keeping the opposite faction off my back while I fished. Two weeks after he won, I won! It was a very busy Sunday for STV, or so it seemed since I had at least five other people fishing on Yojamba Isle with me when we normally just had one or two. This just goes to show you can fish in a busy location and still win. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Remember that everyone else is fishing near other people, too. There are no &#34;hidden locations&#34; in STV for fishing in this tournament. You want to find the area that has the fewest number of people to pools that you can. Remember it's the number of people to pool that is important, not just the number of people. If you are fishing in an area with 10 people and 20 pools, that's 2 pools per competitor, and you'll be better off there than you would be in an area where three people are fishing, but only two pools spawn.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Our chosen location every Sunday was Yojamba Isle and the beach just north of there. We had a nice circular route that we'd follow. There are usually few people fishing in this spot and little to no one from the opposite faction. We found that more often than not, people would start on Yojamba Isle, but they'd then follow the beach south to Grom'Gol Base Camp and Booty Bay rather than double back for respawned pools. So after the first 3-4 minutes, we usually had Yojamba Isle to ourselves.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The biggest key things to our strategy was 1) having someone scout ahead for the next pool so the one competing knew right where to go next, and 2) because of our watery location, Elixirs of Water Walking! These made it much easier to get around and enabled us to reach pools north of Yojamba Isle before other people. I always brought a stack of 20 with me every Sunday, but I usually only used 2-3 of them.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Good luck!

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I haven't seen or heard of this before so I thought I would post it: I caught a Giant Sewer Rat in the fountain of Dal and it gave me the achievement even thought it says to fish it up in the Underbelly. I use fishing buddy and have cast into the fountain 861 times (those coin achievements are a pain). Is this new to the patch?

			<description>&#60;p&#62;So, yeah, it's me again. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I was just wondering, what kind of addon for fishing do you use, to keep track of fishes, etc..&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I tried using Fishing Buddy, but it didn't work for some reason, WoW wouldn't pass the loading screen. Do you guys have any tips you could give a newbie angler? =) Thanks for the help in advance.&#60;/p&#62;
