Caught him about a week or so ago on lightbringer. Rerolled from scratch oon horde and fished him out at about level 15. Seems rarer than i could ever had imagined. they must've just added him because no one seems to have caught him on my server......BTW caught in in northern valley

On a lazy weekend in Orgrimmar I found myself putting a few brews back and tossin' a line. It approached that time of day when the sun hit the tree line and every fisherman knows that it's magic hour - the time when legends are made. The mosquitoes were thick and I was weary from the sun's power that day but I decided to cast just one more time before Retiring. The cast was long - a country mile - and I was taking my time reelin it in as I looked back on the day's catch and how good a fish fry sounded for dinner when I noticed something...

there was a swirl of water around my bobber and although it was getting darker by the minute I distinctively knew something was interested and I stopped reeling. Left station less the bobber looked like a beacon of light in a black glassy void and sensing I had perplexed the taker I picked up the reeling - this time fast... very fast. I used figure eights and small jerks to simulate injury and as the lure approached the drop off point near the waterfall - the all too familiar heart-snap and adrenaline rush HIT me as I now had - FISH ON

I struggled to control the getaway - releasing just a bit of slack and giving the beast some time to show me it's mettle. I was surprised at the intensity of this one... it clearly was not the typical snapper or catfish... even the 17 pounder I had caught earlier was a breeze to land compared to this... Yes this was something far more sinister.

the line was taught and my pole looked dangerously angled towards water and I knew I had to act quickly. I stood up and pointed the pole at the waterline and drew my arms up and back using raw force to pull the behemoth up and then compensated on the re-draw with a reeling hand so fast - I think I wore out the bearings of my old Penn. On the repeat motion I finally saw something right beneath the surface... something dark and brutal.. something that seemed like it was aching to get a look at ME! Our eyes met and I felt a chill run down my back as I finally beheld the slick engineered looked of this fish. the dorsal was sharp and the fish was long and lean. I grabbed for my net - a net that was now making me nervous with its now miniscule stature in comparison. I went down into the abyss with it, dying to see this fish out of its element and in mine when, as if God himself had cursed this fish, it looked at me and in a blink of an eye - BIT through my spider-line like it was 2lb test!! With a splash in my face I saw a flicker as this missle accelerated into the deep along with my lure.

I sat there on the now dark water's edge in awe - looking at my frayed line. I picked up my stringer and box and started on the journey home. I knew, however, that this would not be my last encounter with the Crafty God of the Orgrimmar Ponds.

---------------
---------
----

In my quest to land this fish I present to you the stats:

- started with skill of 55, +5 pole, and lure // Ended at skill of 225, +20 pole and lure
- not once did a fish "get away" so these statistics reflect my experience and although may not be yours, aren't skewed
- I fished every inch of both ponds in Org using multiple casts in same area
- this took around 4 hours although it may be a bit more as I had downed a few during this adventure

----------

- 317 mudsnappers
- 132 catfish
- 82 sunfish

- 1 17 pound catfish (0.02 %)
- 1 healing potion (0.005 %)
- 1 bloated mudsnapper (0.003 %) (looted 1 shadowgem from it)
- Old Crafty (0.001 %)

----------

Although you could say the odds are the same for all the rare items above - I actually caught the 17 pounder at fish #45, the healing potion at fish #174, the bloated mudsnapper at fish #312, and The legend at fish #531.

As an footnote (showing that this is only my observed probability - it will most likely not be yours) during the time I spent doing this another person announced they had caught him after only a half a dozen casts... it was a hunter looking to simply feed his pet...

I will divulge that I caught him WITHOUT lure and skill at the time was 225 + 20 for pole but as any true angler, I am not giving away the spot!

Good luck and always remember for true fish masters... trolling is never a bad thing...

(P.S I did NOT practice catch and release...)

Using a Shiny Bauble (+25) and a Strong Fishing Pole (+5).

I recently started some new alts and had not gotten fishing started on them, even though they were pushing 30. I decided to get my warrior started on fishing, and this guy showed up on the cast that got my fishing to level 15. I so rarely get unusual drops; it's a shame it's on a warrior where it won't do me much good. I mostly post this so players will know that it has very little to do with fishing skill.

Had the brilliant idea to pimp my alliance bank alt with this little bugger.

Got him to level5 and learned fishing (easy), went on a long journey to Orgrimmar, Valley of Spirits (painful). Then tried to actually catch him. Failed and stopped after about 2000catches. My Auction House business had been on halt for too long already.

Be warned, catching this fish can take weeks if you are unlucky.

I fished in the valley of honor from level 1-129. Got him at around 115.

评论来自 Eigna

This fish can be caught in Org it seems entirely at random. I threw my line into the water at the Valley of Spirits (no bauble, regular fishing pole, and lvl 125 fishing). He was the very first thing I caught.

Don't go rushing over to this pool with pole in tow hoping to snag this little guy immediately. You just have to be patient or get very lucky. haha

Just caught him while levelling fishing on my priest, had him at 25 without any lure but clicked my fishing button out of habit and lost him. I cried :<

Just for everyone's info, yes you can feed Crafty to your pet as a hunter.

389 Brilliant Smallfish
506 Bristlewhisker Catfish
1335 Longjaw Mud Snapper
1 Old Crafty

Also, at least a dozen-odd Off-Hand Fish, some Lesser Health and Mana Potions, a +2 healing mace, a white cape, and a white pair of greaves.

Totally worth it... Armory Wong from Ravenholdt for the full effect =P

EDIT: I have Maxed personal Fishing level, and a lot of +Fishing gear, so you can catch him at whatever level.

Just caught today.

I got stack of smallfish, catfish and 1½ stack of mudfish.

I fished a healing potion and said something about it being strange getting a potion from fishing then my next catch I got Old Crafty.
I was just levelling fishing in valley of honor, but now I have a permanent souvenir.

I think fish love me. Fishing strictly on the fisherman's dock in Org I got this fish by the time I hit 71 skill. I was also a lucky prick and caught Mr. Pinchy on the 3rd Highland Mixed pool and the Crawdad was the very first wish reward. :D

I needs me some more rare fish to hunt now.

Tips for ALLIANCE fishing Old Crafty

Fish while /sleeping to look slightly less conspicuous.
Be prepared to click "OK" on a "Looting this item will bind it to you" dialog box. This dialog box appears regardless of whether you're in a group, and if you cast again before clicking OK, you will not loot the fish.
Turn off the display of your title to make your bright red name smaller.
The easiest, most out of the way place to fish from is inside the waterfall in pond in the Valley of Honor. The Valley of Spirits is where Horde get portaled in to Orgrimmar, from Mages or from Shattrath, so the Horde traffic there is considerably higher. Entering from the side entrance will be easier than the front.
Bring some Elixirs of Camouflage. If you don't, you'll likely be troubled by hunters and druids who have track humanoids on. Using this elixir will reduce ganking. Edit: Or, if you are a hunter, you can use Aspect of the Beast (Thanks, Arhippa!)
Have at least 4 empty bag slots; the more you have, the better.
If you are not at max fishing skill, make sure your skill is not capped. You will probably do quite a lot of fish catching, so you may as well get skill points for it.
Be patient! This will quite probably take you a long time, so don't set out to do it one sitting. If gankers are persistent, be prepared to log out and play another character or do something else.

Good luck!

Caught him in Org in the Valley of Spirits while trying to catch my Baby Crocolisk for the fishing Daily. Needless to say i was QUITE suprised, I wouldnt advise farm fishing for this guy though, Youd be better off getting a Azure Whelp to drop

I caught him by accident fishing in between AB's. Caught no more than 40 other fish by the time I had him... my fishing skill is 34 :) I guess I am lucky. What good is he anyway?

评论来自 ho0ber

I now have TWO Old Craftys! However, there's nothing I can really do with the second one, because I can't even prove to people in game that I have two because you can't enchant off-hands.

Bah!

Alliance can get this. Caught mine after pulling up the IF one. There's a nice hidden alcove by the waterfall around 65,25 where you can fish. I got to it by popping invisibility and dropping down the waterfall area by the hunter trainers, but I doubt invisi was really necessary. Gnomes will have to back up against a wall in order to stand here, but the other races can stand in the water and cast wherever. Took me about 40 minutes. Clearly, the 5% extra int let me outsmart him faster than the others. Happy fishing!

Pulled up:

45 longjaw mud snappers
10 bristle whisker catfish
6 brilliant smallfish
and
75 skill points in fishing :)

70 Gnome Mage - Ryokhai - Stonemaul(PVP) - <Simply Outplayed>

Don't auto-loot and chain cast fishing if you're after this fish!

Dropped for me and the "Looting this item will bind it to you" dialog popped up. I'm so used to auto-loot, recast that by the time I realised what had dropped, I'd recast and the bobber was gone :(
