I know its not even been a week. I know you’re not supposed to be able to get all of them straight away. Good, ok that’s out of the way… The rare item to fish up that can possibly contain one of five basic fish recipes has many other recipes and items that it can possibly drop as well. I’m sorry blizz, poor design choice. Based on this, RNG being RNG, it is possible to also NEVER get all 5 recipes, let alone one. I fished for about 6 hours yesterday, and 2 this morning (In the fishing hole, Perception is at 79). I got 7 bottles and none of them had any fish recipes. I also fished up enough coins to get two silver bags from the Great Swog and got two bottles from them, also without the fish recipes. Guys, this is not a good system. EDIT: The VAST majority of fishers are also cooks. They are fishing up these bottles specifically for cooking recipes which also gate the higher end fish recipes through discovery; END EDIT. All the meat recipes are much easier to farm. At least up the drop rate for the fish recipes for the bottles themselves.
/end rant, Thanks
How do you see your fishing perception? Does the gathering profession perception affect fishing?
edit nevermind, you’re just talking about the one fishing rod we can get atm. Id be curious what the tradeoff between +skill and + perception is

There’s another thread about that around here somewhere. It sounds like at current levels of available Perception it just can’t compete with the benefits of extra skill.
I only found this out myself after hitting renown 11 with the Tuskar but you get 1/4 of the fishing recipes for free during the quest chain it unlocks. So everyone will get a BoP version of one of the 4.
