You should be fishing out of pools, so your fishing skill is irrelevant. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/kalual-fishing-derby#post-9184 Sat, 16 Oct 2010 18:21:39 +0000 Ilapa 9184@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Win - Yep - Earlier today</p> <p>Gear - Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole and Glow Worm Lure</p> <p>Faction - Horde</p> <p>Realm - Darkspear (EU)</p> <p>Time - 8 - 10 Mins</p> <p>Srategy - Started at Vengeance Landing in Howling Fjord and wasn't another fisher near me.</p> <p>Moved along the coast and caught it in the fifth pool I tried near where the fighting with the Alliance force is.I swear my hands were shaking as I hs back to Dala lol and was panicking all the way round in case someone got there first.Last ach I needed so I also got the Salty title. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/kalual-fishing-derby#post-8829 Sat, 14 Aug 2010 19:57:41 +0000 Foxfire 8829@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Win- Yep :D bout 30 mins ago too</p> <p>Gear- Bone Fishing Pole, and Lucky Fishing Hat (the one that you dont need lures anymore with)</p> <p>Faction- Alliance</p> <p>Realm-Runetotem</p> <p>Time- bout 12 mins from start to finish</p> <p>Where it was caught-Grizzly hills. Not sure how far I wandered from the large lake in the north but I just kept following the river hopping pool to pool. I figured if I never won the contest I could still catch fish needed for guild fish feasts.</p> <p>Strategy- actually I was on a bank toon in dal wondering what I should do before I had to log for work when the 5 min warning was yelled. I almost didnt go thinking why bother if I never win. But as I had nothing else to do I logged onto my main, dumped her backpack out into the mail and headed out. Got to the lake in grizzly hills, and used the hat for a sure just as it started. Took about 10 mins or so hopping pool to pool and avoiding pools someone else was fishing in. Caught the fish, paniced, hearthed to alliance inn in dal and aspect of cheetah to hand in. Barely even looked at quest rewards as I always wanted the heirloom ring. Handed it in and held my breath. I swear my heart stopped for the moment before I got the ach and he yelled my name :D </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/kalual-fishing-derby#post-8789 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 12:39:46 +0000 Healingproof 8789@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>So I tried to do the Derby today for the second time, this time with a seemingly good strategy.</p> <p>Win - No :(</p> <p>Effective Fishing Skill - 450 + 100(lure) + 20(rod) + 10(drink) + 5(enchant) = 585</p> <p>Faction - Horde</p> <p>Succesful casts - Didnt count, but i didnt get the shark anyways :/</p> <p>Where Shark were caught - Didnt catch it :/</p> <p>Turn-in Time - Don't know, was in frozen sea</p> <p>Strategy - I went up an hour ahead to read up on some strategys. Went online at 13.30 ish. I decided to stack up pools at the frozen sea in borean tundra. Worked extremly well, I fished all over the coast and there was ~15-20 pools stacked up at one place, it was insane. Yellow dots everywhere on my Find Fish. And as this guide says, there will be competition about the frozen sea of borean tundra. This is a normal populated server, not high, not low. I brought my alliance friend who happen to be very talented at PvP, we sat on skype together so that we could keep comunication. He killed anything that came in my way (Deathknight + Paladin who were trying to steal my pools). I fished for 15 minutes without ANY downtime. I also used Water Walking elixir aswell so I didnt even have to find spots to stand on the ice bergs etc.. After 15min I asked the hunter to go Dalaran and check if there's already been a winner, there was :/ Seems to be mostly about luck. I wish Blizzard would do like the STV one and just let it be about who catches a certain amount of fish first instead of about who gets luck enough to catch some extremly rare fish.<br /> Sorry for poor engrish</p> <p>- Healíngproof </p>
