Booty Bay Fishing TourneyFollow

My fishing is level 216/225, I have a strong fishing pole(+5), and I use Aquadynamic Fish Attractors(+100).

Sunday I fished for an hour and a half did not catch any event related fish.

What am I doing wrong? Am I just to low to catch the event fish?

I'm a level 34 rogue so I cannot do the uncap quest.

Please advise.

Thanks.

This is exactly right. You have to find what looks like small whirlpools and toss your bobber inside of the circle. That’s the only way to catch the tastyfish or any of the special fish.

As long as you can fish without getting the message that the fish got away your all set. In your case I doubt you need to use a lure. Once you have enough skill to fish in the area your done with anything to do with fishing. The rest is all up to speed and luck.

You can only pull four or five fish out of a school before it vanishes. So you’ll have to run, or ride, up and down the shore looking for new pools. Once you find one and manage to cast your bobber into the circle you could pull up an oily blackmoth, a firefin, an eel, some kelp or a tastyfish. Or if your lucky, one of the three types of special fish you can turn in for a prize. The first person to get 40 tastyfish and turn them in to tje goblin near the inn will win the competition and get to choose a prize.

Thanks for filing me in folks. I thought I could just sit on my gnome duff in BB and rake in the swag ;)

Now that I know how it really works I should be fine next Sunday.

Thanks a bunch.

I will second the working Sundays issue... I also hope they can make contests that will be more like quest based. You know finding a particular fishing hole anywhere in the world (your lvl based of course, don't want to see a lvl 10 Night Elf in Ratchet...lol). And maybe even a proficiency type contest. Oh well only time will tell.
