[Contests] Kalu'ak Fishing Derby Results

  1. Krahn <Salty>, 9 months ago:

    After catching the Blacktip Shark back on February 27th, 2010 and not turning it in on time ( I was waiting for Elder Clearwater to "appear" when someone turned in their shark first) -- Here on this May 14th, 2011 after trying quite consistently, I bagged the sucker and got a clean win!

    Win -- Yuuuuuuup

    Effective Fishing Skill -- Cata Max (525) plus Hat, Boots & Bone Pole = 568 (Interesting enough I forgot to put a lure on my pole, not even the free Weather Beaten Hat bonus. Very Interesting to me.)

    Faction -- Horde

    Successful Casts --23

    Pygmy Suckerfish Caught -- 12

    Where Shark Caught -- Southern Howling Fjord. Start at the lift and move East. I caught the shark on an iceberg right east of where the Alliance Boat cuts through the opening into the Fjord.

    Turn-In Time -- 2:09

    Anything Unusual -- I guess just that I didn't end up using a lure, or that I didn't use my Arcanite pole. Used my Dal Ring to get back quickly. Also a 1:09 catch is rare, not as rare with Cata out and less people doing the tourny (I think) but still have been seeing 2:05 and 2:06 wins lately.

    And today was the day where I actually thought about changing my fishing spot, since I've been doing Southern Howling Fjord for most of the past year. Craziness.

    * Win: yes
    * Effective Fishing Skill - 525+113
    * Faction - Alliance
    * Successful Casts - 23
    * Pygmy Suckerfish Caught - 13
    * Where Shark Caught - Southern Howling Fjord / Imperial Manta Ray
    * Turn-in Time - 14:13
    * Anything Unusual - Race with an orc shaman, nothing unusual imo. I used Elixir of Water Walking, because there's alot of pools hard to reach from the cliffs. After I cought the shark, I hearthstoned right away, I got the ring then 4-5 ppl showed up, I was very-very-very lucky to be the first there, 3-4 sec and I lose : /

    PS.: Thanks for the guide :)

    Anything Unusual (for example, low level win or interesting strategy)
    > No, used flying mount, hearthed to Dalaran as soon as I caught the shark. Hit accept when boots were selected because I thought I saw another person trying to turn-in, so I guess I'll try again for the ring on another character.
