WoW Fishing Profession Guide
WoW fishing is not only fun but can be a good way to make some good gold. Like Mining, Herbalism, and Skinning this profession is a gathering profession. In the WoW Fishing guide that follows I’ll introduce you to fishing and how to best play this profession.
WoW fishing takes real patience just like real world fishing. Just like the real thing, in Warcraft fishing you’ll spend a lot of time just waiting for something to take the bait. When the bobber dips you’ve caugt something, so quickly double click the bobber! You may get other items other than just fish, such as junk or more valuable item that only come from fishing.
Like other secondary professions, fishing compliments other primary professions. For example, Cooking goes great with fishing because by cooking the fish you catch you can make more gold. On some occasions you may get materials such as cloth or leather. These items can then be used in Tailoring and Leatherworking. The following are the steps to begin fishing.

Step 3: Find water
Just about any body of water will do. This includes rivers, ponds, lakes and so forth. Fishing spot with less noise and combat has 2 advantages. For one you can fish without having to stop to fight. Secondly, when you’ve made a catch you’ll hear a splash in the water.

For convenience put the fishing icon on your action bar. Get it from your Spellbook.
Step 6: Cast
Click the fishing icon to cast your line, the bobber will be in the water if you did it right.
Step 7: Reel In the catch
As I mentioned before once the bobber dips it means you’ve caught something. Double click the bobber. After the catch is reeled in just put it in the inventory.
As your skill level goes up, the amount of junk you catch goes down. This WoW Fishing guide won’t go into leveling, but there are some really good guide available. As far as junk some fishing hole have more than others. Focus on catching to more valuable fish. It may take longer but the gold is much better.
