[Fishing] Catching Ironjaw..

  1. CatBalou <Angler>, 7 months ago:

    New to the board, but have been 'fishing' around here for a while ;)
    I've been trying for Ol' Ironjaw for a while now, up to nearly 600 casts and no luck. Is there a minimum of casts required to fish him up? or is it jut pot luck?

    Pot luck my friend....i was well over 1700 catches when i got him...got old crafty in less then 50 though...

    I put about 1000-1200 casts in either city. I got Ironjaw after about 1200, and I lost track of how many times I tried for Crafty, but it was at least 1000. I gave up, eventually, and then caught it during Crocs in the City

    iv'e been trying for a while to catch it. pot luck is alot to do with it i guess. My uncle caught it after 1500 casts or something. keep on fishin'

    Took me 730 odd casts on my main who has all fishing achievements, went to level fishing on my 34 alt last week or so got Ironjaw under fishing skill 200, random is random and sometimes randomly annoying as hell.

    Thanks for you replies :)
    Just an extra comment... does it matter if you log in / log out and keep trying to fish him up? Or do you literally have do all those hundreds of casts in one sitting?

  7. CatBalou <Angler>, 7 months ago:

    800, and counting ..... : /

  8. Shircon <Salty>, 7 months ago:

    Doesnt matter,the server keeps track i think.My 1700 were over 2 1/2 days when i would come home from work so i dont think logging out makes a differance.

  9. CatBalou <Angler>, 7 months ago:

    Ah thats good,
    Had this awful feeling that whenever I teleport out of ironforge for WG that I would have to start again!

    And what is 'crocs in the city'? Is the the ol man barlo thingy? what exactly does that hav to do with Ironjaw..?

  10. Shircon <Salty>, 7 months ago:

    nothing to do with IronJaw,its one of the daileys from Shat,you can possibly pick up one of the croc mini-pets from the reward bag.

    I was wondering do I have to cast 500+ times in one sitting to catch him? I only have enough time ti maybe get like 250 or so casts before I have to do something else.

  12. Jan.aka.MrGolf <Salty>, 7 months ago:

    no u dont have to do it in one sitting fishing adventure. I did it also in multiple times. but I was really glad when I finally caught it though. Had numerous casts also, dont know for sure how much, but it was a bunch. Just keep trying, u will catch it eventually.

    The one in Orgrimmar ( dont mind spelling) was pretty fast catch for me. had it within an hour or so. But it's all just luck.

    GL catching :)

    and i was only a lvl 8 fisher when i got him so its all random

    I finally caught OI after over 4,5k casts, just 12 hours after my old man caught him on his very first cast in IF.... Oo

    Let's just say he wasn't flavour of the month until I caught mine......

  15. Lily <Angler>, 6 months ago:

    I managed to fish up Ironjaw pretty quickly, not long after I picked up fishing with my main. I was sitting in IF fishing away and chatting to another player who was telling me he'd been there for 3 hours already, trying to catch the Ol' guy.

    About 50 casts in, I suddenly got him. I don't think my new friend was terribly pleased, as he left a few seconds later. Ooops!

  16. Jindar <Angler>, 6 months ago:

    I caught Crafty on my 12th cast ever... I'm edging close to 200 casts with no Ironjaw, however.

  17. Al <Salty>, 6 months ago:

    Hey, Lily.

    Your main's not on Kilrogg is she? LOL! I had just that experience some time back with my dwarf, Al, who already had max fishing at the time. Grinding for Old Ironjaw, I was chatting with a 70 who was just starting to level her fishing and who caught Ironjaw right before my eyes.

    I was happy for the player, but just worn out with fishing that time. I DID get Ironjaw the next day ... and then caught him again two days later doing the crocks quest.
