Fishing Fire Ammonite

Hey all! Was just wondering about the ammonite in draenor, anyone has a tip on how to fish them? I’ve found a number of schools and fishing what I need would be pretty quick, problem is I cant fish in about 90% of those schools.

“Your cast didn’t land in fishable water” , yep, got that one a couple of times today. I’ve tried all possible angles and distance from the target but it’s just impossible.

Do I need a fishing rod from the nether or maybe stick an icecube on the lure or is this just the way it is?

Yes, there is a bait for the fire ammonite which you can fish out from the schools, from the NPC you can summon via item gained by fishing in your garrison, or by buying it at the Auction House. It significantly improves your chances of fishing out the fire ammonites.

However, you don’t need the bait to fish them. Just search the lava pools all over Frostfire Ridge and find the schools you can fish from.

Ye I know that. But I’m going for the angler achievements in draenor where you need to catch 100 enormous insert name of draenorfish. The schools always give enormous so i’ve used those, I tried bait for some of the others but schools have been SO much more efficient.

But like I said, most of the fire ammonite schools doesnt work for me. The rare ones I can fish from work just like any other school though.

You have to fish them out from the schools. All you can do is find the ones you can fish from.

However, as far as I can see, there’s currently a bug that makes most of the fire ammonite schools impossible to be fished from due to reasons you mentioned. The only place you can try is south of the Iron Siege: Bones of Agurak.

Another thing I’d recommend is the Tuskarr fishing net equipment for the Shipyard. Which fish you get is random, but it’s free fish with no effort so worth looking into.

IIRC it even has a chance at the Sea Turtle mount.

I think I got a couple while using lure actually, but the chance is probably around 2% lol

Oh ok, I kind of suspected that. Thanks for confirming :slight_smile:

Well since i’m going for the achievement I think I have to actually fish them up myself, really don’t need the fish though. :smiley: But thanks anyway.

Yeah, it’s heavily RNG. I think I was getting about one enormous fish per lure duration or something like that. Good luck.

Actually, things caught with the fishing net do count towards those achievements :slight_smile:

Oh dang! would’ve been good to know when I started lol. Too bad I “only” need about 150 more now, might still give it a try :stuck_out_tongue:
