WARNING: This guide contains use of a fishing bot. If you don''t like to use bots, you may not want to read any further.
Intro:
I know there are a lot of guides out there for fishing. However, they always tell you to go fish Deviate fish. This guide is how to make money with little effort, and for higher level items.
What you need:
-Fishing (350-375)
-Cooking (At least 300)
-Fish bot (I prefer PiroX http://www.mmowned.com/forums/bots-p...s-fishbot.html)
-Level 70 with an epic flyer is preferred.
Your going to mass fishbot while you sleep, go afk for a few hours, goto school, goto work etc. Everytime you leave the computer for more then 10mins, fishbot Your going to target the most important fish. Fish that people need for buff food. Fish that people buy everyday and in bulk. The cooking is to turn those fish more profitable items.
There are a two main places you are going to be fishing at. Nagrand and Terokkar Forest. Within those two zones are specific fish that are valuable. Your going to need to pick up the recipes that this guide covers. I will show you the recipe and where to get it for each faction.

Why are these so good?
These 4 recipes go hand in hand with the two areas you want to fish in. The Feltail and Fishsticks mats come from fishing in Terokkar while the Mudfish and Bluetail mats come from fishing in Nagrand.
There is a Universal fish that you will pull up called Barbed Gill Trout. This is fished in both areas and is more common then what your targeting. No one will buy them, they are a waste of space. You can either use a loot filter to stop them from taking up your bag space, or you can vendor them. ( I do recommend you check your server first just incase.)
Lets set up an example of what your bags will soon look like. These are my bags after a good night of fishing.
The green tinted icons are Grilled Mudfish. These sell for 45-50g a stack on my server, and will all be bought out by the end of the night.
In the picture I have 10 complete stacks. 10x45g=450g alone for that fish.
The tan tinted icons in the pic are Poached Bluefish. They go for 20-25g a stack on my server, and will also be bought out very soon.
In the picture I have 12 complete stacks. 12x20g=240g alone for that fish.
With these two fish alone I make at least 690g a night while sleeping. Not including The fishsticks which sell for 40-50g a stack and the Feltail delight which goes for 20-25g a stack.
Additional Recipes
You can train for a few others at the bar in Lower City.
Talk to her and she will give you 3 recipes:
Fisherman's Feast: Fisherman's Feast - Spell - World of Warcraft
Hot Buttered Trout: Hot Buttered Trout - Spell - World of Warcraft
Stewed Trout: Stewed Trout - Spell - World of Warcraft
The Fishermans feast is the best. They sell for about 40-50g a stack.
The Strat
Doing this will take a bit of strat. The one i use is as follows:
1. Fish bot in remote locations EVERY time i goto bed. (You can decrease this if your cautious.)
2.ALWAYS keep a steady supply of lures in your bag. (40 at least)
3. Cook while doing other things on the computer! Your going to be cooking up to 200 of each thing. Pretty time consuming. Do this while you check anything you always check when first waking up.
4. Fishing AND Cooking dailies! They are very easy and give you additional recipes and mats. (always choose 'Barrel of Fish' when doing the cooking daily.)
5. Auction at the begging of the day and collect before setting up your bot at night.
6. Don't tell ANYONE!
Fishing Places
These are the two main spots. First, Nagrand
The area you will fish in will look like this: http://i36.tinypic.com/21dicy.jpg
Its a really nice secluded place in Nagrand directly behind Aldor Rise. Fish on the rocks and no one will see you.
Second, Terokkar
The area you will fish in will look like this: http://i33.tinypic.com/fb023b.jpg
Its cornered in somewhat and no flight paths cross over it and its not really an area anyone will fly over you with a mount. There are a few level 62-63 mobs around but should cause no problems.
It's really self explanatory. I find this more beneficial then botting for Deviate fish. Besides, you never see anyone getting kicked from a raid for "not having a deviate fish buff up". These are things people need in bulk and come back for more fast.

Thanks for reading. I will add additional recipes and tactics for fish botting in the future. But thats all for now.
