Fishing past 225: Nat Pagle's four fish and the road to 300

Head south of Theramore to the small island off the coast, where Nat sits with his line in the water. Take Nat Pagle, Angler Extreme from him before you cast anywhere: the four fish are quest items, so get the quest first.

Start on Nat's continent. In Desolace, fish off the Sar'theris Strand for the Sar'theris Striker. Then go south to Feralas and fish the Verdantis River for the Feralas Ahi.

Feralas is the hard one. Its waters are rated 205: at 225 most fish bite, but one gets away now and then until you reach 300. Put a lure on before you cast. Desolace is rated only 130, so at 225 nothing escapes.

Take the boat from Ratchet to Booty Bay. Fish the Savage Coast of Stranglethorn Vale for the Savage Coast Blue Sailfin, then head east to the Swamp of Sorrows and fish the Misty Reed Strand for the Misty Reed Mahi Mahi. Both zones are rated 130, so every fish stays on the line.

Return to Nat with all four. He shows you how to set your lines, and you can now fish to 300. Alliance players can sail from Menethil Harbor straight to Theramore; Horde players take the boat back to Ratchet and ride south.
