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/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/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>
