Regarding gear with bonus-to-fishing effect - such as the Weather-beaten Fishing hat, or the boots - the item is more important than the look, in some ways, as a badge of "look! fishergnome!"</p> <p>Now, however, when aiming for the "look" only, I find it -more- impressive to see someone who has managed to find a good looking set that can simply transmogrify their adventuring gear. Whilst most of the "traditional" fishing outfits have been made up of primarily cloth with some leather, hunters now would be looking for fishing-relevant looks in mail, and warriors in plate!</p> <p>To that end, I've discovered that the Talhide "set" of mail looks like a brown cloth set, with waistcoat and trousers, and so looks rather good. I aspire to the Lightning-charged spaulders to go with it. </p> <p>Finding good fishergnome transmogrification gear in plate is even harder, I think, without the "hunter" looks for the mail sets to add at least some relevant looks. Direforge and the other Vashj'ir sets hold some promise, helmet aside, thanks to the "salt-stained copper" look they aim for. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-11495 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:33:37 +0000 Eponandilas 11495@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>So excited I get to post this, this week. It's been a long time in the making. I don't even know how or why, but I found the mechbuilder's on the AH this week, I won the Kalu'ak a couple of weeks ago, and my Darkmoon tokens added up to the right number today. Since my gloves no longer match with the Boots of the Bay, I bought myself a set of the replica Darkmantle Gloves to match.</p> <p>So the current set is:</p> <p>Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat<br /> Mechbuilder's Overalls<br /> Blue Lumberjack Shirt<br /> Replica Darkmantle Gloves<br /> Azure Silk Belt<br /> Boots of the Bay</p> <p>and don't forget<br /> Nat Pagle's Broken Reel</p> <p><a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/draktharon/Eponandilas/simple" rel="nofollow">http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/draktharon/Eponandilas/simple</a><br /> or an image if I'm my safety equipment:<br /> <a href="http://i.imgur.com/e31hp.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/e31hp.jpg</a></p> <p>I had a couple of suggestions for those looking to spice up some of their wardrobe. I used to wear Seer's Gloves to match my old Nat Pagle's Fishing Boots- same colour as the brown leather and equivalent shape, but cloth. Blue stripe instead of purple. For the perfect colour match to the old boots, Runecloth Gloves have purple and gold details on brown, but big cuffs. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-11483 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 17:30:53 +0000 Jimbra 11483@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>My fishing outfit:</p> <p>Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat<br /> Captain Sanders' Shirt<br /> Blue Overalls<br /> Grizzly Gloves (with Angler enchant)<br /> Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-11472 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 08:00:55 +0000 millsy013 11472@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Awesome Guys, i just got the weather beatin fihing hat :) that made my day. just got to win those tournaments -_- takes forever! wish the tournaments were daily! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-10470 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 16:02:34 +0000 Torture 10470@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Well finally got the <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=9508">mechbuilder's overalls</a>. Then a few days later while doing one of the Orgrimmar daily's, <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/quest=26588">A Furious Catch</a>, I fished up a <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=8181">hunting rifle</a> within the Southfury River. So with that I think my fishing outfit is now complete! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-10272 Fri, 15 Apr 2011 00:50:54 +0000 Phrin 10272@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I've been playing around with attire for a few days, and have still not finalized the ensemble. My main is a shammy, and so can wear mail, which broadens the available selection. She has the following fishing gear already:</p> <p>Head: weather beaten fishing hat<br /> Pole: Kalu'ak (with +1 from the Reinforced Fishing Line I got from Stendel's Bane; I don't have any other line on this toon yet)</p> <p>Hands were my primary focus for a while. The fingerless gloves drop from Thuros Lightfingers in Elwynn. According to Wowhead he respawns every 2 hours or so. It also says he spawns at one of four different locations. The period may be correct, but I have always found him at the bandit camp to the northeast of Jerod's Landing. Although he allegedly drops fingerless gloves, I haven't seen them. Wowhead says they are a 3% drop. After too many kills, I bought Heavy Linen Gloves for a pittance in the AH. They look the same and are readily available. Add the Angler enchant, and voila! fishing gloves.</p> <p>Other gloves I looked at were Gauntlets of the Sea and Seafoam Gauntlets. These are both leather, and are truly gauntlets, riding half way up the arm. A mail option is Seaspeaker Gloves. These ride even further up the arm. Cumbersome gloves like these seem counterintuitive for fishing, even though they look cool. One additional consideration is that they obscure a large part of the sleeves on whatever shirt you choose. If you are a Hordie, Fisherman's Gloves are a quest reward for killing an enormous fish in Stonetalon Mountains. Its an amusing quest and worth the trip. Ally have a different reward, which I discuss later.</p> <p>On my back, I have the Gnomeregan Drape. It has no connection to fishing, and does have the annoying gnome emblem. But is it waterproof and stainproof, and as a pragmatic angler I overlooked the annoying gnome connection. Unless you got it during the clearing of Gnomeregan, it's not now available. I haven't looked for other options. One serious down side of any cape, is that with Phrin's draenei tail, the cape rides out over the tail and makes her butt look big.</p> <p>I'm not currently equipping a chest piece, although I have looked at several. I like the blue overalls. They do obscure any legs you wear, as well as most of any shirt. I tried to farm the Mechbuilder's Overalls, which drop in Gnomer. Wowhead shows these as less than a 1% drop from many of the trash mobs. I gave it up as bad business after one partial clear, even though I liked killing the gnomes. I also looked at the Kalu'ak rep rewards. All of them seem to have some connection to harvesting the sea (Whale Skin Vest for a politically incorrect example), but I don't like the appearance of any of them enough to wear them for looks alone.</p> <p>As a shirt I currently wear the Red Lumberjack Shirt. I like the appearance and workman-like association. I'm going to try the blue and green versions, and also look at the workman's shirts. They all have suspenders, which are awsome, and which you can't see if you wear the overalls. I tried the Exodar Doublet, but I was looking for full sleeves, and this is primarily a chest-only covering. I have Captain Sanders Shirt and Sash, which I wear on all my toons, even my low level Hordy. But for fishing I was looking for a more visual statement on the shirt.</p> <p>On my waist, I am currently wearing the leather Fisherman's Belt, which is the Ally quest reward for killing the big fish in Stonetalon Mountains. Other options I have and may use are Captain Sander's Sash and Bloodsail Sash, both of which look exactly alike to my undiscerning eye.</p> <p>For legs I am wearing Bloodsail Pants, and will probably continue to do so. I also looked at Haliscan Pantaloons and Tuxedo Pants. Both look nice, and it's only my personal preferences which governed my choice. Sea Legs are a low level mail quest reward in the Cape of Stranglethorn.</p> <p>I am wearing Bloodsail Boots on my feet, at least until I get some fishing boots.</p> <p>I don't have shoulders equipped, but did find the Seafarer Mantle, a cloth quest reward in Borean Tundra. It looks fine, but doesn't go with the Lumberjack Shirt. There are also Seafarer Boots as another quest reward in BT, as another option until you get your fishing feet.</p> <p>If you want to carry a main hand item that's not a pole, you can get the Traditional Flensing Knife as a Kalu'ak rep reward, or the Fisherman Knife, a trash reward from fishing quests.</p> <p>I don't have any neck, wrist, trinks or rings equipped, although other posters have made good suggetsions about many of those slots. If I ever get Antique Silver Cufflinks from the daily quests I'll probably equip them because they are so rare.</p> <p>Fish on. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions/page/2#post-9361 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 01:22:30 +0000 Torture 9361@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Only thing I want to complete my set is the <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/?item=9508">mechbuilder's overalls</a> </p> <p> <a href="http://i53.tinypic.com/vzja6f.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i53.tinypic.com/vzja6f.jpg</a> </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions#post-8470 Fri, 04 Jun 2010 09:41:40 +0000 Melvoid 8470@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I have on my Angler , Weatherbeaten fishing hat, Gauntlets of the Sea (+5 fishing enchant)<br /> Blue overalls, Captain Saunders Shirt, Blue Suede Shoes (from the Battle for mount Hyjal, btw they look awesome like blue tie dyed wellies lol) because i still have not been able to find that damm rare fish for the boots,<br /> Azure Silk Belt, cos its blue and has a Swim speed increase.<br /> Mastercraft Kala`uak Fishing pole (with titanium line enchant).<br /> i sooo want the boots of the bay but that could take forever on this server cos of all the twinks trying for that Darned heirloom ring.<br /> as For leggings its usually whatever the best PvP legs i have at the time cos they dont show till you remove the Blue Overalls.</p> <p>i Finally got the Turtle too the other day so the look is almost complete ;). </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions#post-7786 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:18:23 +0000 Christhina 7786@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Kantastic,</p> <p>That's an interesting view - how on earth did you get your toon using an off hand (lantern) at the same time as carrying a two-hander (fishing pole)?</p> <p>Looks very interesing, would you be able please to share details of what the individual pieces are please?

I'm new to fishing (started couple days ago, thanks to this site!) and I already really like the whole thing. I'm using the "Fishing &amp; Cooking 1-450" guide, and now my Fishing is 225 and Cooking around 250 after the first day.<br /> I started my own fishing career with the STV Extragavanza competition, and got my fishing skill from 1 to 75 during the hour. I had alot of fun, I even could wear my fishing gear (see the link) because of the PvE realm. Some guy won the competition after some 10-15 minutes, and yelled to General chat that he's been trying to win this for over a year now. I suppose he earned that win more than me, heh. </p> <p>Anyways, here is my fishing gear:<br /> <a href="http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/2250/wowscrnshot010310225910.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/2250/wowscrnshot010310225910.jpg</a> </p> <p>*Battered Jungle Hat<br /> *Shroud of Moorabi (Cloak, not showing but I have the parachute on it)<br /> *Azure Silk Vest<br /> *Handwraps of Surrended Hope (From ToC, matches with my boots and belt)<br /> *The Confessor's Binding (From ToC, matches with boots and hands)<br /> *Azure Silk Pants<br /> *Titan-Forged Slippers of Dominance (From WG, works as a rocket boots for me)<br /> *Strong Fishing Pole </p> <p>If there's anyone else from Hellscream EU leveling fishing and cooking or just likes fishing, whisper Ukkokukko in-game and lets go on a fishing adventure!<br /> And good luck to everyone with the rare catches! </p> <p>-Ukkokukko </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions#post-7084 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 06:02:09 +0000 jeraz 7084@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>;) </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/suggested-addition-for-fishing-fashions#post-7083 Sun, 20 Sep 2009 00:59:23 +0000 Al 7083@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Nice outfits!
