Fishing & cooking. Tell me more babyFollow

I am really interested in this two profession lately. Reason being i'm bored of the common mining skinning issue.

I am considering picking up both or maybe just fishing itself. So if anyone could kindly tell me :)

And since i'm pretty bored lately and my hunter's account has expired, i usually log on to another mate's 70 priest With tailoring and enchanting. Which i do not really find useful in the making of gold. So i'm thinking of sitting down fishing while i study infront of the monitor screen.

I'd like to know whether this profession (cooking too) is a worth or just a waste of time, Noting that i'm currently at level 1 fishing. Or are there better option in the journey of gold?

Hit me baby. (not too many times)

You realize that playing on an account that isn't yours comprimises the account? You know that you (and your friend) can be perma-banned if caught?


Fishing can be lucrative, but if you think that you don't have to pay attention and do something else while your toon catches fish, then you are delusional. Even with FishPing, it's very easy to miss some catches. How much studying can you do in the 20 seconds between catches?


It's not a waste of time. I can make approximately 80G/hour just fishing the pools in Tanaris. It's also a relaxing break from grinding/questing, although some people find fishing boring (I think that the ones that do might have a bit of attention deficit - or, they might just be easily bored).

Are there better ways of making gold? Yes. Day Trading and Disenchanting can make gobs of gold, but also require you to know (and study) the AH market. Nothing comes for free in the game.
