Wow Fishing Guide

I've set up this wow fishing guide to teach you how to level up as quickly as possible, hence I've left out what you don't need to know that is a waste of time.

Seeing as I'm going to be teaching you how to fish in this Wow Fishing Guide, I've decided to also cover cooking as well as they complement each other well and you can use your time to skill up on both at the same time.

It should take you about 15 hours to complete the following guide (perhaps 11 if you are really fast!)

What causes your skill rate to change?

Your skill rate goes up based on the number of successful catches that you make.

Here is the approximate equation:

(current unmodified fishing level - 25) / 25 = # of fish needed to level, assuming a minimum of  fish per catch.

You should also be aware that it does not matter where you fish, your skill rate only changes due to the number of successful catches that you make.

Before reading on, I wanted to let you know:

Horde Instructions

1. Begin at Bloodhoof Village in Mulgore.
2. Speak to Harn Longcast, purchase Billiant Smallfish and Longjaw Mud Snapper recipes.
3. Go to Stonebull Lake and begin fishing.
4. Equip your rod, next apply the shiny bauble lure to it (makes catching fish a lot easier!)
5. Spend about 40 minutes catching 60 Brilliant Smallfish.
6. By this time you should have also caught about 30 Longjaw Mud Snappers. When you have 60 of them, cook them. You can go back to Harn Longcast and use the fire by him, or build your own.
7. Cook Brilliant Smallfish
8. At level 50, begin cooking Longjaw Mud Snappers
9. Go and catch Longjaw Mud Snappers in the pond in Orgrimmar. It's better for you to go there than stay where you are now as the drop rate is better in Orgrimmar.
10. Somewhere between levels 50 and 70 learn journeyman cooking and fishing.
11. In order to raise your cooking up to 100, catch at least 30 Longjaw Mud Snappers.
12. Go to Tarren Mill in Hillsbrad. See Derak Nightfall and purchase Bristle Whisker Catfish recipe.
13. You will requre about 80 to 100 of these to get your cooking level up to 175.
14. Between levels 125 and 150, go to Shadowprey Village in Desolace and purchae Expert Cookbook.
15. Go to Booty Bay and buy a book for your fishing level. Speak to old man heming and purchase his book Expert Fishing.
16. When you reach 175 cooking, go to Shadowprey Village in Desolace.
17. Speak to Wulan and purchase Mithril Head Trout recipe and begin fishing on the pier there.
18. Get about 60 of these in order to raise your cooking up to level 225.

By the time you have completed the above 18 steps, you should have levelled up your fishing and cooking to 225. This is as far as you can go if you have not reached level 35 yet. If you are on levels 35 or above, then you will have 2 quests to compelte before you can continue.
