I asked a friend to code such an addon, because I didnt want to see a BOP loot fenster and recast my fishing pole. :) This addon will auto accept every BOP request while not in a group:
Thought you would be interested...

donquixote235 <Angler>, 1 year ago:If this works, this will be awesome. So far I've lost two rare fish during the STV Fishing Extravaganza, and I would have screamed if I'd lost Mr. Pinchy during my thousand-cast quest. I've just dropped it in my addons folder, and once the servers are up I'll put it to the test.
I wonder how well it will work with Fishing Buddy?
Yeah, I wonder how it works together with FB, cause I am used to right click twice on my bobber so I auto loot the fish and recast at the same time.
The thing I am wondering about is that the addon will be quick enough to not destroy a Crafty, Ironjaw or Mr Pinchy cast. If it doesnt it would make fishing a lot easier.
I installed the addon and caught all three fishes already, so I can test this with a comfort mind and will feedback as soon as possible.

donquixote235 <Angler>, 1 year ago:Well, although I can't verify whether it works with Fishing Buddy, I can at least verify that it works in a normal environment. I had forgotten that I'd installed the add-on and I was fishing for Mr. Pinchy when I saw the dialog box pop up and then immediately go away. At first I thought that I had inadvertently done something to overwrite the dialog (and therefore lose the catch) but then I noticed that I had the "Received Loot: Mr. Pinchy" message and Pinchy was sitting in my inventory.
By the way, my first Mr Pinchy took over a thousand casts to get but I got this one within 10 or 15 (it was my third pool).
I have both this little addon and fishing buddy, but havent fished up something soulbound yet. I right click once to auto-loot the fishing bobber, and right click twice to re-cast (at least that works well so far). In instances and such, this mini-addon is supreme, thank you so much for this tip!! :D
Glad to help ya all. :) Didnt fish any rare fish since then, so I am lucky to hear from you, that it does work. :)
donquixote235 <Angler>, 1 year ago:Through further testing, I can verify that this doesn't trigger when you're in a group. I still haven't tested it with Fishing Buddy, but my other two concerns (does it trigger when solo, does it NOT trigger when grouped) are alleviated.
About triggering solo:
I asked my friend to make it that way, to exclude the addon while in a group.
And: IT DOES WORK.
I just caught Old Crafty in Orgrimmar (as alliance ^^), and didnt have to accept the loot window - the addon just looted it.
I didnt have fishingbuddy installed - but if your latency is below ~1000, the double right click recast CAN'T be faster than the looting-addon. So even if youre using FishingBuddy I would guess it does work.
