The Ghostfish Mystery 6/26/09

I didn't have a lot of time tonight so I only did my daily fishing which was The Ghostfish. I got this quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran.

I had to fly to Rivers Heart in Sholazar Basin to catch my Phantom Ghostfish, I took the flight path out of Dalaran. When I got to Rivers Heart I flew up to the top, a little northeast of where you land. This is where I always fish for them and I always have pretty good luck. I see a lot of people fishing in the water right by where you land so they must be having some luck there to. I fish right by a little bridge at the top.

I got my Phantom Ghostfish on the 6th cast on Gomorra and the 15th cast on Wranngar. It usually takes me 10 or less casts to get one but today was an exception. Once you loot the Phantom Ghostfish, which looks just like a Pygmy Suckerfish so be careful you don't miss it, you have 60 seconds to eat it before it disappears. It starts clocking as soon as you loot it. When you eat it, it puts you into a state called Invisibility which is a little surreal. After I had caught and ate my Ghostfish I went back to Marcia and told her what I discovered. She gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble.

Gom's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g3s8c, a Glow Worm and a Worthless Piece of Red Glass. Not a great haul for Gom, but the Glow Worm is useful.

Wrann's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 9g26s23c, a Glow Worm, an Unusual Compass, 3 Deviate Fish and a Runic Mana Potion in it. Wrann got more stuff but not really anything of great value.

There are a lot of great rewards I haven't gotten from this daily yet so I will keep plugging away at it.

I tried to do the daily battleground but it was taking too long to queue so I gave up. I will probably get back on later and try again.
