Quote:I'm still hurt by the fact that winning the Fishing Extravaganza is. Of all the achievements in the fishing list, that's really the only one I can't ever achieve.You've probably done all this, but just in case:
1) Make sure you have an epic mount. Right now, having a Magic Broom would be an absolute must, due to its instant-mount capability shaving precious seconds off of each mount cast.
2) Use a Riding Crop or Skybreaker Whip. Better yet, be a Paladin with Crusader Aura or have one follow you around.
3) Start WAY up north in Stranglethorn Vale. Most of the competition on the event is in the southern area, and the largest key to success is to hit Tastyfish nodes uncontested. Yojamba Isle (where the Zandalar rewards are) often has zero competition, and there are many nodes there. If there IS competition there just before 2 PM, head off to the coast to the east and work your way south as you fish.
4) Set your hearthstone to Booty Bay.
5) Should go without saying, but make sure your fishing skill is sufficiently high enough that you never get any "misses." If you're 375 fishing already, no issues.
6) Use auto-loot. Don't waste time clicking on fish to loot them!
7) Having fishing bound to a key - clicking slows you down.
Here comes the e-peen: I beat this on my first try. Of course, that was a long time ago, and the competition for this now has to be completely crazy due to the achievement.
