The trick was the same as Crafty. I had the quest for the Baby Crocolisk (sp?). I had the Baby Crocolisk in my bag, so you don't have to catch them both in the same cast. :D colar on "Old Ironjaw" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/old-ironjaw/page/2#post-2689 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 02:14:42 +0000 colar 2689@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ I got the old crafty on the very first try after the achievement system went live. However Ironjaw is proving elusive. I was able to run into Ironforge with only 1 death along the way. Nekkid run = no durability loss but long run from gy. The first hour went without trouble as most players were away exploring WotLK expansion. Over 150 fish caught no ironjaw yet. I quietly logged out when a few 50's allies started gathering looking at me. Being PVP server, I didn't wan to find out if they called in a high level ally. I'll be back later to try and fish some more.

Old Ironjaw dropped for me this afternoon. Just putting in a quick half hours fish during my lunch break. I don't have the final count - but I'm guessing just over 2500. Now for Mr Pinchy.......

Easiest way would be just to teleport to Gnomeregan from Booty Bay. Once outside, just head north-east towards the center and you should hit the Gates of Ironforge ^^ NiceBloke on "Old Ironjaw" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/old-ironjaw#post-1621 Tue, 07 Oct 2008 08:32:07 +0000 NiceBloke 1621@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ Well, I just shy of 2500 casts now - Still no sign of Ironjaw. I'm at that point where I've come too far to quit - but it's really frustrating. Bejeweled has saved some sanity and having a group of about 8 Ally fishing with me was fun. I JUST WANT THE DAMN FISH!!!!!!

Still no Ironjaw :( NiceBloke on "Old Ironjaw" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/old-ironjaw#post-1576 Thu, 02 Oct 2008 11:56:16 +0000 NiceBloke 1576@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ I've just parked myself in the Cavern ready for a battle of wits against Old Ironjaw. Being Horde I'm tucked away at the back of the cave wearing just a Lucky Fishing had and a pair of boots ;) If like me, you've never been into Ironforge - here's what to do. 1] Strip off (no sense if paying repair bills if you can't stealth) 2] Head to Hammerfall and go via Wetlands to the Gates of Ironforge 3] Mount up and head into the city (try not to run over the guards cause they might daze you - then you'll be toast) 4] Once inside the main gate - follow the path to the left and then head Clockwise round the city. 5] Try not to get stuck in the middle of the pond in Mystic Ward like I did - go round it 6] When you're in the Forlorn Cavern the pool will be on your Right - hug the wall to the back. 7] Catch Ironjaw! When you're being chased by the guards, just keep heading towards the Cavern, even if you're knocked off your mount. If you die, just rez as far away from your body as you can so you gain those few extra feet towards your goal.

I went 1-375 in 2 days, in search of rare goodies and whatnot. Me being horde, I figured the first thing I would do once I got the 375 grind out of the way was go to Ironforge and land Old Ironjaw. I sneaked in and made a dash for the Forlorn Cavern. With a full pot of coffee I was ready for hours of fishing fun. Much to my surprise...it only took me FOUR casts to capture my prize. One Raw Brilliant Smallfish. Two Raw Longjaw Mudsnapper. The next thing I yank out of the water is Old Ironjaw! I'm still "sleeping" in the water of Ironforge in shock. I can't think of a better way to start my fishing career. This site is a healthy nugget of information and the forums are great. Thanks to everyone for their contributions, I hope to be a regular here =) Swoosh on "Old Ironjaw" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/old-ironjaw#post-1517 Sat, 27 Sep 2008 10:38:38 +0000 Swoosh 1517@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <cite>Foffa <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/old-ironjaw#post-1490" title="View original post.">wrote</a>:</cite> <blockquote>I have never been to Ironforge, since I'm horde, and I was wondering if someone could perhaps give me a few pointers on good locations to try to catch Mr Ironjaw in. Any tips/pointers appreciated!</blockquote> As a rogue, it's rather easy to sneak into Ironforge so can't really give you any other advice than bring greater invisibility potions :) Realize, however, that as soon as you enter IF, you'll be flagged for PvP. Even if you're playing on a PvE server, meaning that guards will attack you and Allies can attack you if they so wish. Regarding places to fish the only two I know of are: The pool in the Mystic Ward The Forlorn Caverns. You probably don't want to fish the Mystic Ward as that is a highly trafficed area, where as the most people that come through The Forlorn Caverns are people doing their Ram Racing. Now in the Forlorn Caverns, the water is not very deep until a fair bit out, so what I did was to hug the right wall, go out until just before I started swimming and do /sleep resulting in you being underwater without actually getting the breath bar. It'll look something like this when you fish: <a href="http://img440.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iffishexamplebs9.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img440.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iffishexamplebs9.jpg</a> Of course your name will be glaring red and sticking out like a sore thumb, but most don't see it, don't care or believe you're a corpse. What to do when you *do* get spotted then? I took the Ghandi approach. Seeing as I was very lucky getting Old Crafty in Orgrimmar, I figured that I'd prolly spend a lot of time in IF fishing for the ally equivalent. Therefore I'd rather not bring down the whole wrath of IF by killing peeps to the left and right. I was there for approx 1000 throws and got ganked a total of 8 times, where 3 of them was by pesky, badly geared combat rogue at the very end at 2 am in the morning. The rest of the allies just killled me once and moved on. Fair game. I didn't fight back as I didn't want it to turn into a fun thing to do for them. There was however a lvl 13 dwarf hunter who kept attacking me, and I killed his pet numerous times. And the lvl 16 lock who pretty much pooed her pants when she smacked me with her mace and realized she PvP enabled :) Fun stuff. Anyway, hope this comment helps you Foffa and good anglin' to ya :)
