During the Fishing Quest, Nat Pagle sends you all around Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms to get 4 fish. While I was there, I did gather some herbs to raise my skill, so, it wasn’t a total loss.

Explore Dustwallow Marsh

Mortenoctum was doing the Nat Pagle fishing quest to get fishing beyond 225 and discovered the last area in Dustwallow Marsh. Path of Frost is such a blessing for times like this.

Mortenoctum was powerleveled so that we could catch plenty of Oily Blackmouth to make [Free Action Potion] and easily received two more achievements.

Fish Don’t Leave Footprints

Mortenoctum received this achievement while fishing a pool of Wreckage in Ferelas and finding the [Weather-Beaten Journal]. Having raised fishing on a number of toons, I knew that this area had the greatest chance to drop the item in a chest. In fact, I received two more in 11 crates.

Normally I will offer the journals to guildmates that want the fish tracking, but, I was stuck with two more that I tried to give away in Orgrimmar. Because it is Bind on Pickup, I was called a scammer until I explained how the book worked. The first person called me a scammer because they didn’t have the fishing skill and the crate appeared to be empty. Upon them getting the fishing skill, they were able to see the crate and apolgized.

The second person called me a scammer, told me it was Bind on Pickup and I said, did you want it? Do you have the Fishing Skill? Eventually I was able to convince them that it wasn’t a scam.

I won’t be saving any more of these unless I have someone I know that needs it. It is just too much hassle.

The Old Gnome and the Sea

Mortenoctum received this achievement after fishing a pool in Ferelas. It could have been obtained in any of the starting areas, but, while leveling fishing, I was more concerned with leveling fishing quickly than searching specific pools.

25 Fish, 50 Fish, 100 Fish

Since we were in a rush to create Mortenoctum and get him transferred with a ton of items for twink support, I didn’t level cooking, fishing or any trade skills. Since we needed someone that could fish for [Oily Blackmouth] I ended up sitting in Orgrimmar to level fishing and received these achievements fairly quickly.

Mortenoctum was helping a twink level herbalism in Zangarmarsh when I ran across a strange looking fen strider. Upon killing it, I realized it was a rare and received the ‘Medium Rare’ Achievement.
