[General] Poll: How did you first discover El's Anglin'?

  1. el <Nat Pagle's Love Child>, 5 years ago:

    Taisai suggested we should "get the name out" about this site. That started me thinking about how the people that are already here first discovered El's Anglin'. I need your help!

    If you can remember, please post below how you first discovered or were told about the site. If possible, also post how long ago you first visited.

    Eventually this will become a formal front-page poll, but I'm not yet sure what the options will be.

    It was brought to my attentions by a fellow member of a certain secretive pan-server shadow organization dedicated to the accumulation of cake.

    I remember I googled "WoW fishing guide", and this was the first hit it returns with...way to go El! With so much information, how could I not sign up. Thanks El.

  4. Kylkiluut <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Google.

  5. Balgair <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Saw a link in your posts on the TBC beta forum, loved the look of the site and I've been dropping in now and again ever since. Now you have a forum I'll probably visit even more often :-)

    Google

  7. taisai <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    well, i was searching information about some fishing details on http://www.wowhead.com , and someone had mentioned this site. and spoke very well of it, with a moderately high thumbs up rate.

    I was searching for information on Fishing in WOW. I googled WOW fishing guide and El's popped up. I read about the various pools and what could be found within and planned an expedition (at level 20 something) for the coast of Stranglethorn to snag some Mithril Bound Trunks. I also read about the fishing tourney and have since won twice (both with sub 45's with below 300 skill, proving that it isn't about skill after 225).

  9. Mathiaspohto <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Google gave link for this site.
    Didnt bookmark in first visit tho, but when I went to serious about winning Stranglethorn competition, then realized the value.
    Won the rod for myself in second try :-D First one ended with 35 fish :-(

    I was Googling for information about Mr. Pinchy and your site came up. I did catch him eventually but he didn't give me the pet. One day I'll catch him again.

    I was reading about the hook of the master angler on wowhead (or maybe it was thottbot, it was a while ago) and this web site was linked as good place to go for information about the fishing contest.

  12. Katura <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    I decided to look for a guide of where i could find fishing levels for zones etc. your site popped up. that was a long time ago.. i come here ever since. now you have forums. =D

  13. Crotalidus <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Google search on Warcraft Fishing.

  14. Oberweiss <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    I believe I first saw it linked to from the WoW Professions Forums. This was back when TBC was still in beta, though, so I'm sure whatever post it was in has long since been pruned.

  15. Trokair <Salty>, 5 years ago:

    I think I was Googling for information on the fishing contest at the time. It was definitely Google that sent me here though.

  16. Gihelle <Salty>, 5 years ago:

    It was brought to my attention by the WoW Profession forums.

  17. Dagem <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Actually I was going to find a webpage that could help me with fishing. So I googled "fish guide wow" and this comes up, got a fun suprice when I noted that it's Els site. Me and El are old friends, RP:ed alot with her back in the days. (I've even fished with her! *Giggle*. By the way, come say hi someday El! Regards, Dagem.

  18. heraklen <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    I think this site got mentioned on wow proffessions forum , this was a loong time ago , might even before BC was released.
    This site has grown to be the best information "goldmine" for a fishy-freak like me :-)

  19. GreatEscape13 <Angler>, 5 years ago:

    Was trying to raise my cooking in that hard spot between 275 and 285, found that i needed to fish. Google brought me to this guide. Have fallen in love with WoW fishing since. Thanks for the great site El.

    Cheers.

    I just joined the site. About a month ago I got bored and wanted to grind up fishing, and I found a link to this site on WoWWiki. Now, fishing is one of my favorite activities to do in WoW; and I never realized how much money you can make from it. I plan on making most of the money for my epic mount from fishing. Golden Fish Sticks ftw. The site is great El. There are many times I've wanted to alt tab to it while fishing, but I had to wait till my lure was expired :)
