Both we're in Northrend, in WOTLK days. My first was a Druid who maxed her fishing and eventually got it. The second was my DK who went from 1 to about 200 something and got it.</p> <p>Now, I'm on my Goblin hunter, been fishing in Northrend for a week- stopped leveling, fishing nonstop, I want this mount before Vashj'ir. What I'm trying to ascertain now is whether or not you can still catch the mount in Northrend? Are we sure it's not JUST Cata pools, can we confirm it is still Northrend and Cata content?</p> <p>And for what it's worth, I did manage to fish up the Dustbringer. :/ </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/northrends-pools-distribution-map#post-7603 Fri, 22 Jan 2010 09:03:21 +0000 Mightfish 7603@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><a href="https://sites.google.com/site/wowfishpool/distribution/distribution.jpg">Northrend Pools Distribution Map</a> [new link]</p> <p><strong>Distribution Map</strong> Zone Shortcuts (only work with 1024x768)</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#borean_tundra">Borean Tundra</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#dragonblight">Dragonblight</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#the_frozen_sea-borean_tundra">The Frozen Sea - south-east coast of Borean Tundra</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#the_frozen_sea-howling_fjord_1">The Frozen Sea - west coast of Howling Fjord</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#the_frozen_sea-howling_fjord_2">The Frozen Sea - south-east coast of Howling Fjord</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#grizzly_hills">Grizzly Hills</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#howling_fjord">Howling Fjord</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#sholazar_basin">Sholazar Basin</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wowfishing.coms.hk/northrends-pools-distribution-map_en.html#crystalsong_forest">Crystalsong Forest</a></li> </ul> <p>Northrend's fishing pools distribution map.</p> <p>Let you can easily understand location and number of pools<br /> Let you more easily to gain the<a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/kaluak_fishing_derby.html"> Kalu'ak Fishing Derby</a>!</p> <p>Distribution map only can display approximate location or number of pools, because fishing pools appears location and number is random.</p> <p>Distribution map size:2581x1363<br /> Note: You can click or mouseover on pools icon, to get information for the fishing pools. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/in-northrend-what-is-open-water-named-coastal#post-10242 Thu, 07 Apr 2011 12:25:28 +0000 andreii_1989 10242@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I've noticed that on the pages that summarize the fish that can be caught in the northrend zones listed on the site, like borean tundra, howling fjord, grizzly hills, they have their "open water" sections separated into:<br /> Open Water - Inland and Unnamed Coastal<br /> Open Water - Named Coastal<br /> Apparently, you get different catches when you fish in each, regardless of the zone, but what's the difference between them geographically? What is a "named" or an "unnamed" coastal area? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fishing-bots-fail#post-9293 Thu, 04 Nov 2010 20:50:13 +0000 Hells Angler 9293@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>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 "super secret never ending" 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! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/safe-northrend-fishing-spot-co-ords#post-9301 Thu, 04 Nov 2010 22:12:22 +0000 Hells Angler 9301@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Thread To Post Co-ords of Peoples Favorite/Safest Fishing Spots In Northrend.<br /> *El if you have any Id love to know where you fish too :) </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/biggest-concentration-of-pools-for-turtle-mount#post-5137 Sat, 11 Apr 2009 10:43:07 +0000 fredje222 5137@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>So the new turtle mount will be fishable from any pool in northrend, completly random...<br /> Like evry good fisher i'm gonna fish like hell till i get it :p but i was wondering where the biggest concentration of pools is for fishing it...</p> <p>So what do you think? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/kaluak-fishing-derby-some-strategy-is-possible#post-7699 Tue, 02 Feb 2010 00:19:53 +0000 Sabrieal 7699@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Been lurking here for a while but i thought i'd share my thoughts on the Kalu'ak Derby.<br /> Okay so after having no luck with the Fishing Lottery- I mean Derby so far (I haven't caught a single shark and fished the full hour in every contest so far^^) I've been looking at a few ways one COULD increase their chances of winning.</p> <p>A few factors that can affect chances of winning:<br /> How close are the pools you're fishing?<br /> How many other people are fishing those pools?</p> <p>These are the first two which spring to mind. But how about these:<br /> How far apart are everyone else's fishing pools?<br /> How MANY FISH are in their pools? ; )</p> <p>These last two are of interest to us because we CAN control them.<br /> How? Well although it involves spending a good few hours beforehand for relatively small gain, some form of "preparation" is possible. I've noted that people tend to stop fishing pools as much a couple of hours before the contest starts. Starting last week i have begun "forcing" pools into a close group. In Grizzly Hills I succeeded (after a good half hour) Of emptying most of the southern Imperial Manta Ray pools and filling most of the eastern ray schools.</p> <p>However, this week i'm going to try something else: fishing as many pools as i can to reduce the number of fish in each pool (apart from mine on the east coast : P) Effectively all one does is fish 2-3 catches out of each pool so that only 1 or 2 fish remain in each pool. The theory being that competitors will take longer travelling between useless pools while I catch the shark and win : D Obviously it's gonna take some time to go around every pool in Northrend, and sure some lucky randomer with a fishing skill of 23 may still get it on his first catch, but it has to help SOMEHOW!</p> <p>I'm not sure if some will view this as cheating, but I for one think this is perfectly acceptable : )</p> <p>What do you guys think? Too much effort for too little gain?</p> <p>Also still wearing max fishing gear out of paranoia incase the skill does have some affect on your chances. :P any proof of that yet?</p> <p>Anyways thanks for reading, sorry if post is a bit lengthly. Will let you know if i end up with some nice boots or a broken computer and a sore fist! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/sparkly-pools-on-the-coast#post-6555 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 00:10:23 +0000 pomegranite 6555@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I haven't been able to find this--which may be my own doofusiliouness--but I can't find any reference to the sparkly pools on the coast of Northrend. I'm on Grizzly Hills in particular. The pools looks bubbly &amp; sparkly, and are a few yards off the coast. Are they merely cosmetic or do they contribute anything to fishing itself?</p> <p>Thanks a lot to anyone who doesn't think my question is too dumb to answer... I've been playing for a few years very casually (read: infrequently) and am not always up on everything. </p>
