Drink, Fish, Drink Some More...

 

There's nothing like kicking back, getting a cold mug of ale, and casting a line.  No serious dangers as long as you don't go swimming, you catch some fish, get some sun, relax... 

And then you see the gleam in the water.  There's something down there and it's a good thing you have your trusty fishing pole with you today, because whatever is down there could be worth a lot...

Fishing 101 

How To Drink And Fish In A Straight Line

Fishing is one of the games secondary professions, so have no fear learning it, anyone in the game can. Fishing is relatively easy to do, if sometimes a little boring, but easy to skill up, there are plenty of recipes for fish and a few ways to make some decent money if you really are that lazy. :p

To start fishing, all you need is a pole, which any decent trade supplier can get you, maybe a lure or two, and some time. Pick a nice spot to fish and cast away. If you want to mix it up a bit, get drunk while fishing. Don't believe me? Why, go ask Nat Pagle in Duskwallow Marsh, he'll tell you the same.

Making Gold With Fishing 

You Get The Drinks, I'll Get The Poles

Making money with fishing takes a little doing, but isn't too bad. Since fishing is easy to skill up and use, fishing for money is basically about running around lakes, oceans, ponds, and shorelines to find decent stuff. Elemental Water, Motes, wreckage, and schools of various fish and eels will be your claim to fame with fishing. Decent for a little boost in revenue every so often.

Your Best Catches Will Be:
» Motes of Water
» Stonescale Eels
» Varous Fish (Blackmouth, Firefin, Deviate)
» Wreckage
» Elemental Water
» Other Random Fish For Cooking

Hey there.

Nice lens, but you could probably expand on it a bit, like you did with your superb gold lens.

If you want to try making Savory Deviate Delight in the real world for your real guild (say, "Arrr!") you should take a look at the MMO Cookbook.
