WoW Fishing Guide 1 - 450

2010 - 7 - 7

This Fishing guide will show you the fastest and easiest way how to level Fishing from 1 to 450. Updated for WoW patch 3.3

You'll discover that it requires a lot of patience and time to build your skill level up to the maximum level. In the end of this Fishing guide, you will have to catch about 3000 fish to get from start to finish. You can skill up your fishing from 1 to 450 in any fishable water. This means you can stand in Orgrimmar all day long and get skillups on your fishing at the same rate as you would in a higher level zone. What decides your skillups is the number of successful catches.

From level 1 to 75 you will get a skillpoint on pretty much every successful catch, this will decrease as your skill gets higher and from 300 to 450 you will need to do more than 10 successful catches for each skill point gained. The following equation gives a rough estimate:

(Current Fishing Skill - 75) / 25 = Rough number of successful catches for a skill-up.

If you are low on gold, I recommend you to try this Gold Making Guide, it can help you to make loads of gold. You also need to realize this is not a leveling guide, so if you are looking for a leveling guide, the best one is this 1 - 80 Leveling Guide.

First, visit any trainer in the main cities of old Azeroth - just ask a guard, and learn Fishing Apprentice.

1 - 300
Buy a Fishing Pole, it's sold by trade goods vendors and fishing suppliers. Go to the nearest water, and fish from skill 1 to 300. When you reach skill 75, you can go to Barrens and cath [Deviate Fish], the best spot is to go into Wailing Caverns and fish there, because then you won't have to move between pools to find School of Deviate Fish. You can sell the fish raw at the Auction House or if you have the recipe you can sell [Savory Deviate Delight].

Do not forget to visit your fishing trainer when you reach skill 75, 150 and 225!

 

300 - 450

Before you travel, gather together gear and lures that improve your effective fishing skill. At least a +5 Strong Fishing Pole and a stack of +75 Bright Baubles. There are a lot more fishing Poles, check out this link for the list of every fishing Poles and this link for the list of lures.

Go to Borean Tundra in Northrend and learn Master rank from Fishy Ser'ji (Horde) in Warsong Hold, or Old Man Robert (Alliance) in Valiance Keep. Even with good gear and lures, initially you will catch a lot of junk fishing in Northrend, in Borean Tundra you will need 475 effective skill to fish without catching junk. If you are higher level, around 80, you should go to Wintergasp instead of Borean Tundra, you can make the most gold by fishing there, at the start, around half of your cathes will be junk, but the amount of junk will gradually decline.

Do not forget to visit your fishing trainer when you reach Fishing skill 375!
