I'm not saying that they're all easy, but it's clear what you have to do. But I'm wondering about the last achievement, get one of the rare fish. Now, if you're like me, you don't want to buy one at the auction house, even if they're available. Which one of the rare fishes would you think is the easiest to get? Should we fish in a starter area for a chance of a big Mudsnapper or Catfish? Should we head to Azshara for a Lobster or Mightfish? Should we try to get the Rockhide Strongfish during the tournament? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/otdga-turtle-swordfish-out-dark-herring-in#post-2490 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:16:33 +0000 Gummo 2490@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>The latest version of the One That Didn't Get Away achievement has removed "Baby Coralshell Turtle" and "113 Pound Swordfish" (possible Northrend catches) and replaced it with a different unknown, "Dark Herring." Maybe it's a red herring? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/only-lucky-or-change-in-catch-rate#post-572 Mon, 14 Apr 2008 11:48:27 +0000 Uncle Stompe 572@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Hello there!<br /> Ive just got the fishing hat from the bag of fishing treasures and ive started to use it.
