Daily Fishing QuestFollow

I try to do the fishing quest daily every time I'm on. I got the gem a little while back, and last night picked up the hat finally..woohoo!

And as the last poster said, time to free up bag space by getting rid of all those darn sharpened hooks!

I heard a tale of someone on my server getting "the 2ring" and sold it for something like 2500 gold.

I'd like to get that fishing chair next!

The daily fishing quest at the moment , is the only daily i do, mainly because i want some heart of the sea's for my tank kit. I've already got the Hat, Muckbreath (baby croc) and the beer recipe. The best thing about the daily is that it is so ridiculously fast to do, not one of them takes me longer than ten minutes usually.

Note to the above poster,, i believe that the Fishing Chair is actually only available from Lando Longshot as a Reward from the Trading Card Game, not a prize from the fishing daily unfortunately, as i've been lusting after that chair for a loooooong time, but i will not fork out £60 on Ebay for the bugger :P

Couple of days ago I got the head! And today the golden weddingband, which I could vendor for 11 gold, not a bad week. And my pet can always use fish.

Why would anybody want to buy this? It has no use at all.

And I found a much lower price

I have been doing the fishing daily pretty frequently. I received the recipe not long ago, and to my suprise The 2 Ring as well :D

Morthandeus that's exactly what I did. I had listed it originally for 3000g but it didn't sell. Then I thought it would be amusing to list it for 2222g and it sold within the hour :D

I spent all of the gold making the Alchemy Trinket from Shattered Sun rep ;-; That and a leg armor kit :3

That's just real uh, said?

@Monsieur Ebonspine Sage: You lucky devil! I think If I find that 2 ring, I will just keep it for myself.

now i feel stupid. sold my golden wedding band to the vendor (thinking 11g was great)

I enjoy the fishing quest a lot. So easy to do and I actually like fishing (in game, not real life... :P ) The most time it ever took was not quite 15 minutes the first time I did the Bait bandits one, more often the quests take well under ten minutes.

I'm haven't gotten the glass eye yet, but I did get the Mariner's Log, which was pretty funny reading. *edit* Maybe the eye belonged to Cedric? :D

I’m right there with you. It never even occurred to me to try to sell mine on the auction house. Dohh!


I actually stopped doing the daily fishing quest for a while. Part of it was my taking so many characters through the Children’s Week quests. But part of it was also my frustration. I’m taking four characters through the quests. Cashara got the fishing hat the first day. Woot! Later I got a second hat. But it was again on Cashara. So I had to vendor it. Then, just before Children’s Week, I got a third fishing hat. But again it was on Cashara. So there I am with three hatless fishermen and I’m vendoring yet another hat. Grr… So I took a break.

I started doing the fishing quest again last night and Farli got his fishing hat. I’m feeling much better now. *smiles* And just for the record, that’s four fishing hats so far along with three Hearts of the Sea. But I’ve yet to get a monocle, which I’d like to have for a couple of bank alts. Oh well, its something to look forward to. I could buy one from the auction house, but I’ve only seen them on Blackhand for 190 to 300 gold. I don’t know if they sold. All I can say is that I didn’t buy them.

I'm still plugging away on the fishing with 2 characters.

Neither have the hat. One has looted two fishing lines, the other none. The non-fishing line toon has looted two pets, Chuck and Muckbreath, the other none. Both have looted one Eye of the sea. Both have looted a shadow pearl.

I have looted a few wedding rings, tried to AH for a minimal mark up but no joy so I vendored.

This week I looted one or two monocles. Will see if they will sell on the AH (keeping one for fashion). And looted a Ornate Drinking Stein yesterday. Will see how both look on my AH mule.

I was contemplating stopping all dailies for a while because of the mind numbing repetition, but the fishing one is easy and quick enough, with the poptential of a nice jackpot, that it's the one daily I still make sure I do.

Usually I can do the fishing quest on both toons in the a.m. right before my 4 year old wakes up and wife is finished getting ready for work. Only takes a few minutes to get both done. If the RNG isn't my friend and I still haven't caught the catch of the day, I can log at that spot and be ready to resume later at night.

Never bothered with this (or getting my fishing above 225) until I read this thread; now I do it every day I log. Fishing about to break 300 (its soooo painful to level) and I love these quests. Even got a gray ring (ancient ring or some-such that vendored for 25g!).
Haven't seen any of the cool stuff yet, but thats just icing on the cake. Great quests...well done Blizz.
Cheers!

Isn't the Enormous Barbed Gill Trout a main-hander? My bank alt carries one, but I don't remember if its main or off-hand. Great for those times when you really want to slap someone with a wet trout.

I sold a monocle for 55g over the weekend. I probably could have held out for more, but I figure 5x the vendor price was pretty good. Beware though, the deposit is roughly 6.5g on the monocle. It doesn't display when you list it, but you'll see the deposit when it's returned to you with the sale.

A few weeks ago, I sold the Eye of the Sea for about 450g.

Still waiting on the other goodies. :-)
