I've decided to use unusual compass for fun (playing Jack Sparrow), and where it points, i will cast only once, and then give up for a while. I casted and then... "WTF?! It's the rat!!!" I start to believe it really works :D Good luck to everyone who still need it Spencer on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1/page/2#post-6222 Thu, 14 May 2009 19:34:51 +0000 Spencer 6222@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ Caught it after 153 casts :). Location: Cantrips & Crows. Fishing Skill: 450 + 198 (648) Was extremely lucky for me, to be 100% honest. Fish/Junk caught: 91 Sewer Carps (59.5%) 42 Magic Eaters (27.5%) 8 Drowned Rats (5.2%) 6 Empty Vials (3.9%) 3 Partially Eaten Fish (2%) 2 Leaded Vials (1.3%) 1 Giant Sewer Rat (0.6%) Gear: Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole - +30 Fishing Spun Truesilver Fishing Line - +3 Fishing Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat - +5 Fishing (Use: +75 Fishing Lure) Buffs: Underbelly Elixir - +50 Fishing Glow Worm - +100 Fishing Captain Rumsey's Lager - +10 Fishing The rat is most probably entirely based on LUCK. I'm not 100% sure though, as I did have 648 fishing. So I'm guessing if other people try to get around my fishing and then try it too, we'll see the results and see if it is based on luck or not. :3 Good luck to everyone on getting their rats, though! vineoak on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1/page/2#post-3973 Sun, 18 Jan 2009 22:25:30 +0000 vineoak 3973@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ got him after 650 casts.i must be lucky.450 skill+lures at pier in catraps Selka on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1#post-3960 Sun, 18 Jan 2009 02:58:15 +0000 Selka 3960@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ Sewer carp-281 Magic-116 Empty Vial-37 Part. eaten fish-24 Drowned rat-18 Leaded vial-3 Enchanted Vial-1 Arithin on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1#post-3744 Sun, 04 Jan 2009 23:42:44 +0000 Arithin 3744@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ I got my rare fish (Dark Herring) earlier today, and logged in prepared to settle down and fish for the Rat. The Herring took me close to 6k casts, so I was all set to spend a lot of time on the Rat... Got him in about 50 casts today. Cantrips & Crows: 49% Sewer Carp (155) 25% Magic Eater (81) 11% Empty Vial (35) 6% Drowned Rat (19) 4% Partially Eaten Fish (14) 1% Leaded Vial (6) 0% Enchanted Vial (1) 0% Imbued Vial (1) 0% Giant Sewer Rat (1) --Total: 313 dezdemona on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1#post-3687 Thu, 01 Jan 2009 12:05:45 +0000 dezdemona 3687@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ This is my lucky day, i got my rare fish earlier within a few casts, finished the saltyachievement with two junknodes and figured i might aswell keep going with various fishing challenges... I got really lucky, i have no illusions of that. Anyway, i'm posting my stats if anyone wants to make some sort of chart, or just to give some of you a little hope :) All casts were caught at Cantrips and Crows 22 Sewer Carps = 52,4% 14 Magic Eaters = 33,3% 2 Partially Eaten Fish = 4,8% 1 Empty Vial = 2,4% 1 Crystal Vial = 2,4% 1 Drowned Rat = 2.4% 1 Giant Sewer rat = 2,4% Isa on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1#post-3634 Tue, 30 Dec 2008 12:10:11 +0000 Isa 3634@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ I haven't logged what I had to catch, but it were several 3 hour sits at night... Finally got it though. It's a bit disappointing how it doesn't do something funny as a pet. Even that common white rat's doing back flips!

It was my first time in Dalaran and I decided to fish in the underbelly, next the the inn. At 380 fishing skill, (plus 1000 lure) I set out one cast. I got a, 'your first got away,' I set out another cast, and looted the sewer rat. I was excited, so I decided to look it up online. I had no idea how hard it was to get, so I was really lucky to get it the second cast! I guess it was my christmas present? :D Arrowsflight on "Giant Sewer Rat" http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/giant-sewer-rat-1#post-3583 Thu, 25 Dec 2008 18:35:14 +0000 Arrowsflight 3583@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ 17 hrs total fishing Sewer Carp 2646 : 54:.1% Magic Eater 1236 : 25.3% Empty Vial 347 : 7.1% Drowned Rat 271 : 5.5% Partially Eaten Fish 245 : 5.0% Leaded Vial 98 : 2.0% Crystal Vial 24 : 0.5% Imbued Vial 16 : 0.3% Enchanted Vial 9 : 0.2% Giant Sewer Rat 1 : 0.0% total casts: 4893 And for what it does or does not matter, I had the 'haunted' buff on for the most part, and just took it off for say the last 3 hrs of fishing. Hubby thought it was a debuff lowering my chance of getting it ;p Who knows, but it's worth mentioning.

Maybe to make up for all of those previous unlucky situations trying to win in STV or "The One that Didn't Get Away?" ;) I fished off the dock in the Cantrips and Crows area, spread across two sessions. Here's my catch data: Session 1 54 Sewer Carp 23 Magic Eater 7 Empty Vials 3 Drowned Rats 1 Leaded Vial 1 Partially Eaten Fish Session 2 37 Sewer Carp 28 Magic Eater 8 Empty Vials 6 Drowned Rats 3 Partially Eaten Fish 3 Leaded Vials 1 Giant Sewer Rat Totals 91 Sewer Carp 51 Magic Eater 15 Empty Vials 9 Drowned Rats 4 Partially Eaten Fish 4 Leaded Vials 174 casts to get my Giant Sewer Rat Good luck!
