Think Mixed Schools, for better results.

Commento di 29877

Furious Crawdad are caught from pools called "Highland Mixed School". These pools are found in three elevated lakes in Terokkar Forest, Outland:

1. Blackwind Lake (near Skettis) - 10 confirmed pool spawning locations (2 on the western side of the island in the lake, 8 around the edge of the lake).
2. Lake Ere'Noru (above Allerian Stronghold) - 4 confirmed pool spawning locations.
3. Lake Jorune (above Stonebreaker Hold) - 3 confirmed pool spawning locations.

Do all of these "elevated pools" require flying mounts? Just to clarify...

Commento di 29877

Yes, they all require flying mounts.

I'm not sure if this is a well known fact since I just started doing the whole fishing thing two weeks ago, but being a priest with levitate makes fishing up in Blackwind lake a LOT easier when you can just kill one or two elementals and chill floating above the water while fishing. ^-^; Just a lil annoying to redo the spell every two minutes. I farmed 18 crawdads in 45 minutes.

I haven't seen any Highland Mixed Schools since patch 2.1. Did they change something that I was not aware of?

I rarely get a 'get-away' with 512 skill - 375 skill, an arcanite fishing pole, glove enchant, and a +100 lure.

I can sell these for 8g for 5, though I am on a rather low-pop server. I usually see them sell out around 8PM server time - when most guilds start to raid

If you plan on farming these, I suggest you get an engineer to make a few hundred https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=6533 for you; they run out faster than you'd think since they only last 5 minutes.

Having read all your great tips and the great guide at capsu.org, thought I would share my experiences having caught 32 in under an hour this morning. It took me a bit to grasp the whole thing, hopefully there are some tidbits in here that helps someone else where I had struggled. I usually look for off hour times, like early A.M to avoid competition.

Lake Jorune - At the letters "ebrea" of StoneBreaker Hold. I consistently find 3 pools here, in order. Excellent spot, wish there were more then 3 pools. Fly around Stonebreaker Hold on your way to this lake because a flying elite might knock you off your mount if you don't.

Lake Ere'Noru - Took me a bit to find it, posts said above or north of Allerian Stronghold, it is actually south at the letters "old" in Allerian Stronghold. Been past here 10 or more times and never found a single pool. Fly over it between fishing at Lake Journe and Blackwind Lake to look for pools, but don't be suprised if you rarely see any here. I flew above this and idled while writing this, and even waited 20 minutes extra before posting this, and still no pool spawns.

Blackwind Lake - In Skettis area, easiest and largest to find. I have found 9 of the 10 locations so far, and 5 of those were this morning, so don't be suprised if it takes quite a few tries before you find all 10. Because of the number of people in the area, I sometimes only find 1-2 pools. Bosses are not the problem people discuss, only 2-3 spots required you to kill a simple level 70-71 and 1 place has the 72 elite walk by occasionally. Wait for him to walk by, drop and fish. Since most pools are gone afer a few successful casts, you should be gone before he comes back. Easily the best area when you get lucky and find a bunch of pools.

If I go back and refish pools I already tried, the "fish got away" is very, very high.

Commento di 31431

Catching those was quite easy. At least for me..
Went to Blackwind Lake. Fished pools after pools. When i didnt find more i went to Lake Journe and found all 3. After 40 minutes i got 36 Furious Crawdads and 11 Golden Darter.
Started with a buffed fishingskill 465!
Only got 7 fish got away in all!

Commento di 83683

A little trick to fishing these up even if your base fishing skill is not yet maxed. You only need about 395 total fishing skill to fish from Terokk's Rest (the island in the middle of Blackwind Lake, Skettis). There are 2 or 3 highland mixed school spawns around the island.

I am not sure if its just an oversight on Blizz part, but as long as your location shows as "Terokk's Rest" you can fish with just 275 base fishing skill a +20 pole and +100 lure.
You will still see a few "misses" but they are pretty rare if you get your fishing skill to at least 300.

good way to get cooking from 365-375

Commento di Allakhazam

Lake Ere'Noru in terrokar forest at 59,61 but it does require a flying mount to get there

Commento di Allakhazam

There's really no other way to explain it, i roll around with a 375 fishing skill and use +100 Aquadynamic fish attractor on eveything i fish. Five out of 10 times, i have the msg fish got away (Highland School Mix). I belive the next patch this has changed a bit, decreasing the number of times you lose your catch, and fishing skills will be easier to obtain. With that said, will this put all those people that took there time to stand out with high fishing skills gone to waste? So eveyone can be a fisher man now..=(

Commento di Allakhazam

These things have a horrible drop rate, in my experience so far. I can make it to the locations have 375 fishing plus Nat's and lures..but have spent a couple hours and cannot get one hooked. The only way I have gotten one so far is to clear mobs and fish one up from a 'Mixed Highland School'. Perhaps this is the only way to get them?

Arcanite Fishing pole (+35)
Eternium Fishing line (+5 enchant to pole)
Total possible of 427

TERROKAR FORREST (Yes, most of these locations will require you to fly)

Tip: bright baubles (+75 / 10min) are avail in Stonebreaker hold (Horde) at the trade goods vendor.

1. Lake Jorune @ 45,40
no mobs
407 = "Skill not high enough"
482 (w/ Bright Bauble) = often received msg "Your fish got away"
507 (w/Aquadynamic fish attractor) = aprox 30-40% "Your fish got away"

2. Lake Era'Noru @ 60,59
no mobs
407 = "Skill not high enough"
482 (w/ Bright Bauble) = often received msg "Your fish got away"
507 (w/Aquadynamic fish attractor) = occasional "Your fish got away".

3. Blackwind Lake / Skettis @ 67,80
many mobs lvl 70-71
407 = often received msg "Your fish got away"
482 (w/ Bright Bauble) = occasional "Your fish got away"

4. Silmyr Lake @ 38,5
some mobs, easily avoided
407 = often received msg "Your fish got away"
482 (w/ Bright Bauble) = catching all fish

5. small pond @ 39,22

6. behind Bonechewer ruins @ 68,57
no mobs
407 = often received msg "Your fish got away"

In the two and a half hours it took me to test these areas I caught the following:

Barbed Gil Trout: 42
Spotted Feltail: 15
Golden Darter: 14
Furious Crawdad: 1- I caught this in a Highland Mix School, which I found on Lake Jorune.
Enormous Barbed Gil Trout (held in offhand: 1 - Also found in a Highland Mix School

To the best of my knowledge furious crawdad are only coming from the highland mix pools, if that is incorrect please let me know. I'm also assuming that the mix can spawn in any of the areas listed by allakhazham, which are the higher fishing skill pools.

Hope this helps, Enjoy :D

In Skettis they seem to spawn in a clockwise fashion. gl getting these babies!

Commento di Allakhazam

Catched around three Crawdad's on every Fishing School, Blackwind Lake is the place to be. Only some of the Skettis Surgers were annoying that were spawned below the surface :/.

Commento di Allakhazam

Those freaking pools are nearly impossible to be catched, on a previous attempt i got 3 near each other, after that, tried for 2 hours and no spot at all

Also consider that (Skettis that is) is kinda overcrowded by trash 71 seasons plus various elite mobs

good luck

Commento di Allakhazam

The Blackwind lake has several nodes to fish from. Naturally this is the one area that has level 70+ mobs and those patroling elites you need to watch out for. But for priests and shaman fishermen, we can water walk or levitate on top of the water and fish from there and avoid most of mobs(need to kill only one mob per node usually) and completely avoid the elites. You'll need to stock up on reagents to use these abilities but it does make life a lot easier for me on my priest.

Commento di Allakhazam

Maybe it's just me, but I can't figure out any way to get to the locations listed (Blackwind Lake, Lake Ere'Noru, and Lake Jorune) without a flying mount. Anybody know how to get to these crawdads?

WP

Commento di Allakhazam

I believe the Max fishing lvl to fish up by Skettis is 525. Obviously, you would need Aquadynamic fish attractor, the (+20) fishing pole and the rewards from the BB fishing tournament to get there. You can fish here @ lvl 430, but you would need lvl 525 to catch something on every cast.

Commento di Allakhazam

Im 375 and fish them at
3. Blackwind Lake / Skettis @ 67,80

I got the find fish drop so this makes fishing them cake - I use +100 aqua lurer and I have the +20 pole --- that being said I gather about 27 per hour, very few fish got a away and I get 4 crawdads per hole

Commento di Allakhazam

Went up there for the first time tonight to fish. Found a few highland mixed schools round the lake and a couple round the island in the middle. All are highly dangerous, you'll have to kill at least a couple of mobs and get clear when the giants come past (unless you're on the island, in which case clear all mobs).

I was getting mainly crawdads, a few golden darters and the usual non-fishy items. Even found a campfire on the island to cook them on. I had a fair few getaways though, with 375 skill, the +20 fishing pole and bright baubles.

Commento di Allakhazam

I have yet to find a Highland Mixed School in either Lake Jorune or Lake Ere'Noru, but I've found plenty at Blackwind Lake in Skettis. Fished up a bunch of Motes of Water in addition to the usual Furious Crawdads and Golden Darters, but no Magical Crawdad Box yet.

Commento di Allakhazam

i have taken my nate angler test.and no matter were i am fishing it is takin like 6 to 8 fish to go up 1 point but all my cookin recipes require fish in outland. can anyone please give me some advise.

thank u..i am on the kirir tor server and alliance side if that helps.and a lvl 65. lock..dont know if any of that helps..

thanks ahead of time .for anyones advice.

Commento di Thottbot

Where are the crawdads found?

Commento di Thottbot

i got these alot all day and night i was 317 fishing with +20 fishing poll eternium line,fishing hat and glove chant then the +100 bobber and i could fish them at the 3 elevated lakes in terrokar forest. by allerian stronghold and the horde city near by then s/e of the allerian stronghold lake is the third.

Commento di Thottbot

Either the drop rates are way off, or these are in fact time-sensitive. Trying to fish these from both "Skettis Fishing" and Blackwind lake at about 9:45-10AM in the morning has resulted in 40 fish, but 0 crawdads. This is with a fishing skill of 490.

Commento di Thottbot

See this site for more info on fishing furious crawdad. Basically they can only be fished from the pools.

http://www.capsu.org/wow/catching_furious_crawdad.html

Commento di Thottbot

First of all dont even try to catch these babies without fishing skill 365 + 100 from the Aquadynamic Fish Attractor +25 or 20 from the fishing pole.

The ONLY place I got some of these was the lake in Terrokar Forest that you do need a flying mount to reach.

Don't expect to just sit there and fish. 70lvl mobs are all around which means u have to clear some area to be able to fish (not to mention that big elite that patrols and if u get aggro you are down).

I found most around 68,81 in the HIGHLAND SCHOOLS.

What I suggest is fish somewhere else untill you hit the 375 skill. Cause up there even at 365 most of the fish get away so it is much harder to skill up.
I ' m on 369 atm and it is still very annoying of how many of them get away.

Good luck to all the fishing freaks.

P.S. If anyone has any more extra info plz post guys.

Edit: I found them in the other pools thot mentions. There are much less pools than the big lake ofc but u can easily fish them without mobs around + u get those nice Golden fish for healing etc. Good luck.

Commento di Thottbot

I recently hit 70 and got my flying mount. Went to the 3 lakes noted but have only seen the highland pools in the lake at Skettis. I have literally spent hours at the other 2 lakes and never have seen a pool spawn. The amount of mobs you have to fight at Skettis lake is insane and making it even harder for me personally as an Ice Mage is the fact that all the water elementals are immune to frost spells.Base fishing skill: 385,buffed with rod/lure and +fishing gloves:485

Commento di Thottbot

I have confirmed that Lake Ere'Noru, which lies just above Allerian Stronghold, can be reached without flying mount or druid flight form. I made my way through Veil Shalas till I got to the entry point at coordinates 57,65. I mounted up with my epic mount and ran up the hill as far as possible then while still running up I repeatedly pressed the jump button. Though it seemed as though I wasn't moving, little by little I had made my way up and over that little hill and into the lake. Hope this helps out.

Commento di Thottbot

I also entered Ere'noru (south of Alliance Fortress) via the Arakkoa village. However I couldn't make it on my Epic kodo, so I dismounted when I reached the limit and kept running and jumping until I finally found my way up.

It works without flying mount!

Commento di Thottbot

Yes, there is a path to Lake Ere'Noru via Veil Shalas starting at 57,65. Don't try to go directly up the hill there (you can see a path on the minimap and *almost* get to it, but not quite). Instead, go down the little drop to the north and follow that path to the next right. That ramp will drop you into the southern end of the lake.

FYI, if you are the northern end of the lake and you are horde, the gryphon riders will aggro on you.

Also, the lake really does need lures. I have max fishing and the +25 fishing pole (for a total of 400) and it still told me my skill wasn't high enough to fish there until I added lures.

Commento di Thottbot

what time are those crawdads out specically?
I hear daytime...but whats the exact time to fish?

Commento di Thottbot

The crawdads can be caught at any time of the night or day, but only from Highland Mixed Schools.

Commento di Thottbot

Spent 20 minutes fishing on Lake Ere'Noru. Skill 375, +20 fishing pole, +100 fishing lure, +2 gloves, for a total of 497. Had the following results:

Barbed Gill Trout: 18
Golden Darter: 9
Spotted Feltail: 5
Got away: 16
Crawdads: 0

Is anyone catching the crawdads, and if so how high was your skill level?

Commento di Thottbot

What I didn't see anyone mention was the fact that these can only be caught from Highland Mixed School of fish. These are pools that spawn and then disappear. YOU CANNOT JUST STAY IN ONE LOCATION CAN CATCH THESE. You have to hunt each lake area until a pool spawns, clear anything that you would aggro around you and then fish the pool. YOUR CAST MUST BE IN THE POOL OR YOU WILL NOT GET ONE. Then you will only get 2 or 3 and the pool will disappear and you start again.

check this link for great information: http://www.capsu.org/wow/catching_furious_crawdad.html

Commento di Thottbot

I caught these with 336 Fishing skill with +5 Lucky Fishing Hat, +75 Lure, and +25 Nat Pangle's Extreme Angler FC-5000

336+75+5+25=441

I definitly let a lot of fish get away though. But they CAN be caught at this level

And I caught them around 8:30-9:00AM Server Time, So they can be caught in the morning/day.

I caught mine at the elevated lakes above Stonebreaker Hold and whatchamacallit Stronghold (the alliance place south of Stonebreaker). I only found 1 school at each zone. So when they ran out I went back to fishing Golden Darters.

The next day I tried Blackwind Lake. The mobs were not so bad. They take at least 10 minutes to spawn, and if you are careful, you only need to kill 1. As a shaman, I was a little spoiled with waterwalk, but its not impossible to fish there without it. The previous posts make it sound out to be quite a pain to fish there. but there are tons of schools, and if one looks crowded with mobs, just go find a different one. I would not suggest the school next to a log in the southern shore of the lake. An elite Mountain Colossus paths though there, and he can swim

Commento di Thottbot

This is sooooooooo hard to get. I am level 375 fishing skill, and i use +100 lure and add 25 fishing pole, and i cant catch any of this. The only time i caught one of this is at high land school fish pool in the morning, and i only got one. All the fish will get away when i fish at the high land fishing pools.- -"..Guess i need to get the best fishing pole and lucky hat this sunday.

Commento di Thottbot

Caugtht 24 of these today, all from Highland mixed schools. I mostly caught these with some GOlden darters + the odd crate. Took me 1 hour all in all.

375 fishing +25 (Extreme angler) + 100 Aquadynamic.

I used up 8 Fish attractors.

Pretty easy catch imo.

Commento di Thottbot

The best place is 65.3:78.5
Fishing skill must 525

Commento di Thottbot

These are found in the Highland Mixed School pools in the Skettis area of Terokkar forest, as well as other places.

I think you need a relative fishing skill (after bait and gear buffs) of 430 to fish here. I did it at 450 and about 85% of my fish got away. 500 is good, and I hear 525 reduces all 'fish got away'.

Commento di Thottbot

you can also learn 3 more recipes from the barmaid in lower city to lvl cooking:

Stewed Trout
Hot Buttered Toast

Commento di Thottbot

Easy found in Skettis!
Just look for circels in water called "Highland Mixed School"
OBS you should have about 500 skill the fish then!

Commento di Thottbot

The lake elevated above The alliance zone and skettis has tons of these spawns... they look like a welt on the surface of the water and if you have a good video card u can see the circling fish beyond the surface.. i catch about 35-40 of these a day early in the morning when everyone is in bed and all the spawns are fresh, right after server maintenance is also a good time to catch these spawns. Currently 375 fishing +20 pole +100 lure and +2 to gloves. These sell a little better uncooked but cooked give a 30 stamina buff, great for raids and is also one of the easiest ways to cap cooking at 375. good luck!

Commento di Thottbot

Confirmed - possible to get on skettis without flying mount.

Instructions: Walljump up to the lake just next to Allerian Stronghold. It's reasonably hard but can be done. From there, go to the furthest corner south of the lake. Drown yourself. Rez up above :)

Commento di Thottbot

caught a stack of these today.

very low level of "Your Fish got Away" msgs.

348 base fish skill
Aqua-dynamic fish attractor
Seth's graphite rod.
regular string. no chants for +fish.

so super duper fish skills are not a must.

paying attention to your surrounding is. the elites aren't friendly.

Commento di Thottbot

These are very easy to catch,

I caught 59 of them in one hour.

I have 500 fishing skill with +25 pole and +100 lure.

I have epic flying mount.

I have "find fish" ability so i can see all the highland mixed schools on my mini map.

On top of that, I also just caught mr. pinchy, I guess i'm lucky cause i've probably only fished about 40 highland mixed schools total so far.

Selling the furious crawdad RAW on the AH for 40g a stack.

If your cooking is max'd and your fishing is max'd, I recommend selling your fish raw, People like to buy them to level their cooking.

Commento di Thottbot

just to add in my 2 cents. i needed to fish them to get my cooking skill from 250-275 so i read up on where to find them. i went to skettis (black wing lake or something) you can only reach by flying mount but since there are dailies there i am going to try a diffrent body of water to avoid being ganked. i can onyl get them from the mix highland schools, iam sure there is the very rare chance to get one from jsut fishing in any elevated body of water but i wouldnt bet on it. i had 375 fishing skill, +20 to pole, and a +75 lure..wasnt about to waste a +100 if i didnt have to. and in the 7mins left on my lure when i started in the school i came up with 7 crawdads, and the time does take into account moving to diffrent schools, and fighting the water mobs that attacked me. hope this helps

Commento di Thottbot

So right! do the "Highland Mixed School" I got 2/3 sucessful fish pulls. I had been doing them just across the shore on same area w skettis and had been there for 20mins and got 0. So more worth it to do the schools.

Commento di Thottbot

I just fished out 20 of these with fishing 348 and a +100 attractor. Only missed a couple of them. A couple of times i used the +10 fishing beer but not the whole time.

Commento di Thottbot

The 3 best lakes to catch these are in Terokkar Forest.

Lake Jorune = 46,40
Little or no mobs here.

Ere'Noru = 59,59
Little or no mobs here.

Blackwind Lake = 64,74
Mobs on the shores and in the water so be prepared to clean some out.

Need to have a flying mount and high fishing level to fish in all of these. Furious Crawdad can only be caught in the Highland Mixed Schools. Also caught a bunch of Golden Darter (makes great healer food) at all of these locations. Happy fishing!

Commento di Gwalchgwyn

As far as i'm aware, you are unable to catch these in Phase 1. I used to farm these from pools around Skettis back in the day. As of phase 1 there are no pools up there, nor any mobs for that matter. I believe the area is for Shatari Skyguard dailies, which isn't available currently.

Commento di erockinit

The respawn rate of the Highland Mixed School is absolutely abysmal. I've seen one pool in the last 45 minutes if not longer. Seek your cooking leveling materials elsewhere if you value your sanity and your time.

This page says the respawn rate for these is over an hour.
