    These are my stats fishing in "Cantrips & Crows" for the Giant Sewer Rat. It seems like my stats are always on the high side, not sure if I am unlucky or not; but the stats are 100% accurate. I would however take them as the high end of the spectrum in terms of # of casts.

    Sewer Carp: 55.7% (1172)
    Magic Eater: 24.8% (521)
    Empty Vial: 6.9% (146)
    Drowned Rat: 5.5% (116)
    Partially Eaten Fish: 4.0% (84)
    Leaded Vial: 1.8% (38)
    Crystal Vial: .6% (12)
    Imbued Vial: .4% (8)
    Enchanted Vial: .2% (5)
    GIANT SEWER RAT: 0% (1)

    Total Cast: 2103

    On a personal note this was my last fishing achievement :P

    Fished up the Giant Sewer Rat a few hours ago. He's HUGE!!!

  4. Arayllas <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    Screw Blizzard and their miniscule drop rates... UGH!

    You would think, after taking 1,400 casts to FINALLY get Old Crafty, I would have a little better luck with the Giant Sewer Rat. Oh no! 1700 and counting.

  5. Arayllas <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    Sewer Carp: (1080)
    Magic Eater: (450)
    Empty Vial: (128)
    Partially Eaten Fish: (95)
    Drowned Rat:(90)
    Leaded Vial: (22)
    Crystal Vial: (12)
    Imbued Vial: (5)
    Enchanted Vial: (1)
    GIANT SEWER RAT: (1)

    Total Cast: 1884

    I'm not sure if I'll ever fish again... lol

  6. Marlburo <Extremely Salty>, 4 years ago:

    lol, try over 6k for the crushfish! Often times when my motivation for the actual fish starts to fade I just think, "I gotta these stats up so others who come to el's will know the truth!"

  7. Pwnica <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    5300+ casts and counting for the Giant Sewer Rat. :( So discouraging, especially since each person (20+) I've seen catch him does so in under 1000 casts, with the majority of those catching him in under 300 casts. Agh!

  8. Mushroom <Salty>, 4 years ago:

    Well over 4000 casts myself, no luck. The insulting part is when some random chump strolls up and catches the rat in less than 30 casts, I could puke.

  9. thelastrace <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    I got mine within about 20 min or so after taking a small break from the Coin Master fishing. This makes up for the crap I went through for Pinchy and the One that Didn't get away.

    I saw someone catch it on - literally - their second cast. I wanted to puke, as well.

  11. pinktoque <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    I kept track this time, expecting to have 238230598698457047 casts and more Magic Eater and Sewer Carp than I could shake a stick at, but I was surprisingly lucky this go around. 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!

    I haven't yet caught this little guy but I did want to make others aware that I was fishing right next to a guildmate at the Fountain in Dalaran and he pulled the Giant Sewer Rat from there so I guess you don't HAVE to be in the Underbelly to actually catch him.

    If you fish the edge of the fountain, you're able to get underbelly fish.

    I just go my.. about 2.400 catches in "Cantrips & Crows" area.
    450 fishing skill, +25 fishing pole, +100 and +75 lures.
    was worth it ;-)

  15. Arrowsflight <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    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.

    (just caught it in the last 5 min on Icecrown server)

  16. Ruein <Angler>, 4 years ago:

    I logged in December 25th at 8:00 AM. 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

  17. Isa <Salty>, 4 years ago:

    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!

  18. dezdemona <Salty>, 4 years ago:

    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%

  19. Arithin <Salty>, 4 years ago:

    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)
