Those made me keep fishing in the Underbelly, because I thought there might be something else lurking. I call it "Gnomish intuition" - a pattern apparent to the curious.

Can you elaborate on what clues there are?

Had already got the ghostfish and was finishing up a pool on my way back to flight path when I got it. Was around 4:00pm PST when it happened. my luck is horrible, i spent entire days fishing for this thing, I'd say well over 20 hours of pure fishing. I'm persistant. Had max fishing set on, all rare reward fishing gear and arcanite pole. flettch on "turtle higher drop rate in scholazar?" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/turtle-higher-drop-rate-in-scholazar#post-6312 Fri, 22 May 2009 03:27:32 +0000 flettch 6312@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ Just got mine. What a week I have had in fishing, in no small part thanks to reading this forum. Thanks all. :) Max fishing, Kaluak pole with truesilver line, no other buffs Dragonfin Angelfish school Dragonblight Lake Indu'le app. 8 PM server time I was Turtle fishing for perhaps 4 hours on the coasts and especially around Kaluak over the last two weeks, then gave up to pursue Salty related quests figuring it would just have to fall on its own. I popped by lake Indu'le to grab a few dragonfins on the way to do the daily and right before heading to the sea, wham!... I wasn't even thinking about it when it showed up, I am still a little shocked. Beyond that - my luck has been outstanding. In just the last few days I got The One That Didn't Get Away in about 150 casts from a pond in the NE starting zone, then followed that up with Mr. Pinchy in about the same number of casts with the second wish giving me Mr. Pinchy's crate, and now the Sea Turtle - the one I wanted most of all. I have never been this lucky in this game, I suppose I will cap it by winning the fishing contest and getting the title. :) Bummer is only a couple of people in my guild even faintly understand the meaning of any of these achievements flashing by ...

Glacial Salmon sells on the AH much higher than any other fish, so I was farming for turtle there to make some decent cash. Shift Clicked me a turtle late at night after midnight. My typical gear was worn: Weather Beaten Hat, Pagle Boots, +2 FIshing gloves, Arcanite pole with +5 line and +75 lure from hat. But yeah, Grizzly Hills. Wasn't any competition either on my server in that zone. anakhahawk on "turtle higher drop rate in scholazar?" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/turtle-higher-drop-rate-in-scholazar#post-6256 Mon, 18 May 2009 08:16:29 +0000 anakhahawk 6256@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ I had already completed the Fishing dailies and was just doing a few sweeps of the zone to stock up on Dragonfin Fillet. I'd fished extensively in the Frozen Sea for the mount and also any pool I passed in other zones was cleared out such as during my fishing dailies.

Then, when I had just finished the ghostfish daily, I realized my hearth had a minute or so cooldown, so I went up to a river and fished 2 schools there.. "thinking, well maybe I will start the grind out here tomorrow looks quiet and less boring than the frozen sea" and that last pool just before my CD was ready dropped a turtle! I too had read that a lot of people got their turtles there, but I figured, well then, that is likely just because it is a major fishing spot.. so I won't bother. Well sure enough, when I finally went there it worked. Oh, and I had only the kaluak rod and the fishing hat (using the lure from that hat, which is 75 I think).

It's just that it's a rather popular fishing place. I in fact avoid it except for the daily because there is more competition for pools there than elsewhere. That said I have done my fair share of pool casts there for the turtle without luck. zakayron on "turtle higher drop rate in scholazar?" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/turtle-higher-drop-rate-in-scholazar#post-6238 Sat, 16 May 2009 02:38:39 +0000 zakayron 6238@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ Ive read quite a few comments that say they got their turtles in just a few minutes fishing in the pools in scholazar (spelling?) and im wondering just how many peopl this has happened to. please give details such as :where you on a fishing daily? if so which one: :approx. what time where you doing the fishing: ::what lures and gear you where using including gear: i know some of this may seem random but if you know blizzard you know that stuff like this happens in WoW all the time. I personally dont intend to grind for it because i dont have the time im just fishing not in open water right now when im fishing for something. however if i found out i could do it in 5 minutes with such and such a daily at such and such i place i would do that.. this would just save a lot of hassle. thanks Touchessky on "Baby Coralshell Turtle?" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/baby-coralshell-turtle#post-2186 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 20:51:06 +0000 Touchessky 2186@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <cite>Micha <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/baby-coralshell-turtle#post-2170" title="View original post.">wrote</a>:</cite> <blockquote>Part of me is hoping that this is a noncombat pet.

But if it is really rare, it might take thousands of catches in one particular place or pool type - and I haven't done that yet! The <a href="/fish/?s=Giant Sewer Rat" title="Fish Finder - Giant Sewer Rat.">Giant Sewer Rat</a> was easier to spot, because there were little clues in the water, that made me keep on fishing.

Now I feel kinda guilty. Poor baby turtles already have enough going against them before we fishermen aim to stick them in our bank. :P Edge on "Baby Coralshell Turtle?" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/baby-coralshell-turtle#post-1746 Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:21:05 +0000 Edge 1746@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <cite>crimsona <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/baby-coralshell-turtle#post-1737" title="View original post.">wrote</a>:</cite> <blockquote>It could just be a northrend rare drop</blockquote> Though, the only place with Coralshell turtles is Azshara.

Has anyone seen this one yet? Does anyone know anything about this catch? Searching for "Coralshell" on sites like Wowhead only returns Coralshell Tortoise and Lurker which are both found in Northern Azshara. I'm guessing you have to fish up the Baby Coralshell Turtle there. Might it be a pet?
