I gave it a few tries last year but never really tried my best.</p> <p>My server is quite heavily populated by Horde and so I didn't have to worry about being ganked or anything like that.</p> <p>I had a friend who helped me by interupting Alliance players, ganking them, fake-casting in pools close to mine, but best of all: BLOCK THE BOPPERS!</p> <p>I started just outside Booty Bay on the western coast and my friend first scared away some alliance and blocked casts for the Horde players. As it went on my friend travelled alone over the the eastern side and kept blocking casts with his Travellers Tundra Mammoth, this is extremely effective and people started running away to different areas, which gave ME a lot of time to catch more Tastyfish.</p> <p>The contest started out at 13:58 server time and I was finished at 14:13 and used Hearthstone back to Booty Bay. No one ever casted in my pools and I wouldn't have made it without my friend.</p> <p>So a few tips for you to ALMOST guarantee victory:</p> <p>* Have 1 or more friends with you to gank players of the opposing faction or just interupt casts, and most importantly, have them block the fishing boppers by standing with their mount in the fishing pools for other people. This is extremely effective!</p> <p>Best wishes!</p> <p>//Salty Koprofagen </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/two-fish-short-d#post-6520 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 20:40:16 +0000 ILubLawn 6520@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I tried the tournament today and was two fish short when someone won. I got some not-so-tasty fish in the process so that didn't help. Having a pally follow me around with crusader aura helped a lot. I think next time I bring a DK for paths of frost. And a scout who can track fish... I have been paying helpers to encourage them.</p> <p>First attempt: 34 fish at winner - no help<br /> second attempt: 36 fish at winner - DK helper<br /> third attempt: 38 fish at winner - pally helper</p> <p>Statistically think I have to win next time. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/new-prizes-for-the-fishing-extravaganza#post-1256 Mon, 25 Aug 2008 03:13:54 +0000 llie 1256@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Does anyone know if they will be releasing new prizes in WOTLK for the Fishing Extravaganza? I've been going every Sunday for about 2 months, I've won twice and caught a couple of each rare fish so I have all the items I can get from the tournament. I like doing the tournament every sunday and would like something that can keep me looking forward to going other than the gold I make from turning in the tastyfish. If anyone knows anything about this let me know!! :) </p>
