Fish Slapping

Does anyone know of any mainhand fish besides the Steelscale Crushfish? Fish slapping on a warrior to 60 is my next project and the crushfish is quite rare and has a level requirement I believe.

I believe it’s 20 but don’t quote me on that.
Also not sure if there are other MH.

If I find one it’s yours if on Defias Pillager.
I’ll bookmark this and post if I get one.
I may have used up all my luck on Vendorstrike in SoM though. Fished up two within days of each other.

i use find find those in the lake behind Goldshire on a regular basis fishing.

I don’t know the answer, but I wholeheartedly wish you success in your endeavour!

There is also a one hand fish weapon that I don’t believe is restricted to main or off hand that you catch in STV. It’s around level 40 and I’ve caught a couple of those before as well. I think it’s called something Strongfish.

Best of luck, OP, on your fish slapping quest.

There’s a pretty comprehensive guide on WoWhead: https://www.wowhead.com/classic/guide/fishing-fun-items

Looks like there are two weapons: Steelscale Crushfish at level 20 (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=6360/steelscale-crushfish) and Rockhide Strongfish at level 40 (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=19808/rockhide-strongfish).

There are off-hand fish ‘weapons’ that deal no damage and can be used from level 1. You could off-hand one of those and punch your way to level 20 for maximum hardcore.

Hey cool. Thanks for the research!

Wowhead gets wonky sometimes on mobile so I was just going by memory.

Your memory was pretty much as accurate as the WoWhead guide. Level 40 fish weapon from STV, bang on.

Yeah I remembered a bit about it since all those I caught in STV were during the fishing contest from the special pools.

This may be nearly as painful to level as a paladin using the AH and getting regular groups for dungeon runs!

Good luck to you!

That fish - the Rockhide Strongfish, level 40 one - with Fiery enchant is KING!
