New Rare Fishing Mount Coralshell Turtle

So according to the PTR patch notes, there is going to be "A new (and very rare) special mount can now be caught from Northrend fishing pools"

Coralshell Turtle - Summons and dismisses a rideable Coralshell Turtle (probably will look a lot like this). This is a very fast mount, both on land and in water. So its 100% on land and in water, much like all epic land mounts after the 3.1 patch.

So i wonder what the cast rate is going to be on something that is "very rare" it could be like fishing up Mr.Pinchy all over again.

Also it seems that they have removed the annoying Nat Paggle fishing quest, the one that you have to walk half way around the world and fish in different spots to get artisian fishing. This is now trainable from the fishing trainers.

- New fishing dailies are now offered from Marcia Chase in Dalaran City!
- Players are no longer required to do the Nat Pagle, Angler Extreme quest to gain Artisan fishing. The quest now offers a special superior-quality fishing pole instead. If you already completed the quest, you can visit Nat Pagle in Dustwallow Marsh to receive this new fishing pole.
- The time needed to catch fish has been reduced.
- You can now fish anywhere, regardless of skill. Every catch has the potential for fishing skill gains, but you are likely to catch worthless junk in areas that are too difficult for your skill.
- You can now fish in Wintergrasp, and the fishin' is good!
- You no longer need to learn fishing from books. The trainers have finally done their reading and are able to teach you the same thing
- A new clam, the Giant Darkwater Clam, can be obtained by fishing in Wintergrasp. This mighty clam has a greatly increased chance to drop pearls, and yields up to five times the regular amount of clam meat.

Fish Feast - What it does and how to get the recipe.

So in patch 3.0.8 their adding a new fishing recipe:

Fish Feast!

This is the next level of the BC fisherman's feast.

Fish Feast
Binds when picked up
Requires Level 70
Use: Right Click to set out a great feast that will feed your party! Set out a great feast that will feed your party! Restores 15000 health and 12960 mana over 30 sec. If you spend at least 10 seconds eating you will become well fed and gain 80 Attack Power, 46 Spell Power and 40 Stamina for 1.00 hour.

Requires Musselback Sculpin (2), Glacial Salmon (2), Nettlefish (2), Northern Spices (4)

Better start stocking up on fish now. These things are going to sell quite well as there kinda an all in one stam buff, with spell power and attack power +80 is nothing to sniff at either for all the melee.

To get the recipe you need to hand in 5 Dalaran Cooking Awards and have learned max cooking (450).

Fishing in Iron Forge for Horde, Old Ironjaw.

The options seem bleak when you first look at it. But its not so hard to find a good spot. It does involve dying at least once though, unless you can stealth.

So here is how i did it on my Hunter (even though i didn't end up catching Old Ironjaw, got bored) But ill go back one day and keep trying.

First an easy way to get up to Ironforge. You can take many flights and a long ride, but i prefer the Booty Bay Transporter, You need to go too a guy in Org from around the engineering trainer that gives you the noob quest for getting to into Gnomereagen. This is only available to Engineers, so if your not one. Have a nice walk ;)

Anyway, take off all your gear and Mount up to ride through the front gates of Iron Forge. Then once the guards kill you, walk back and repeat until u can rez inside IF with no guards detecting you.

Aim for the middle, where the forge is.

You need to jump into the Lava on the right hand side, aim for the middle of the cog. If you keep jumping around the center of the cog wheel, you will find that there is a ledge there so your just out of the Lava. If you die while trying to do this don't worry, you can get onto the ledge while your still in ghost form, so run back and try and jump on the ledge. It can take a few tries, but keep trying you will get there. ;)

You may want to bring with you one of those Elixir of Camouflage so that allies cant see you on the mini map. Or if your a hunter use aspect of the beast.

Here is a screen shot of the spot. Zoom your camera all the way out (you may need to go into interface options and make sure the zoom level is set to maximum distance).
