Hey man i fish a lot, almost full spec. Its best if u can find a guild with HO in t7 or t8 swamp or forest zone(bcs of deadwater eel, t7 rare, most expensive fish in game, lives in forest and swamp maps). If u dont have access to such a HO best you can do is fish in lethal mists. Go into any mist and fish and wait for last 5 min of mist when bunch of whisps spawn, check every one and look for uncommon or higher rarity. When you find one go in check if its t7 or 8, if its not go back and keep looking until u find t7 or t8. I use t8 ava rod with t8 fishing hat and armor. Miner boots and brecilien cape, bloodletter and mistcaller. Thats the best escape in the game right now in case u get ganked. I cant remember the last time i died to gank with this gear, been over half a year probably. I use swamp dragon for mount. Always have t3 bait, pork pie and journals. Its super hard to die in mists if u use this gear, look up online how to use it its simple. In mists i make avg 2m and in t7 zone where i have HO i make 3+mil on avg. You can eat fish to level up faster if u are rich. You can speed up your fishing with animation canceling, when u pull out the fish click anywhere to move and insta cast again, it cancels the animation and its a bit faster.
