I've found the docks near Wetlands to be a great place to fish these.

Kommentar von Omgimdrunk

STV does have a high concentration of Firefins pools, but on PvP servers, standing in one spot with your back to the woods is a guaranteed way to get ganked. The amount of time wasted walking back to your corpse is not worth the amount of FF's. mommyclz is right about Stonetalon in the oil spill's, and their are a lot of em, 99% of the time you will pull a FF. At lvl 40, fish a oil spill till it dissipates and mount to the next one. This is lowbie land so you wont have to be on guard. I got 2 stacks (40 FF's) in an hour and got 3 waves from lvl 2x hordies.

in south shore i got blackmouth and firefin, fairly frequently

Kommentar von Thottbot

Fishing off the Zoram Strand is a good place to get Firefin and Oily Blackmouth.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Best place I've found for Horde to catch Firefin and Oily Blackmouth is at the Zoram'gar Outpost on the Western edge of Ashenvale. I've gotten 6 in a row of both types here at times.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've been having quite a bit of success fishing for them at Booty Bay

Kommentar von Thottbot

So one day I was bored and actually wanted to see how often I could catch firefins and blackmouths... So here is what I caught after 20 minutes of fishing on the Menethil docks:

29% - Blackmouths: 12
9% - Firefins: 4
62% - Other: 26
Total Fish: 42

This was with my fishing level effectively around 170
(skill was 120 + nightcrawlers)

So unless someone knows of a better place for firefins, I'd say it'll take you quite a while to make significant amounts of fire oil.

Just as a side-note, Oily Blackmouths were going for about 2 gold per 10 when I checked the AH. Which means if I sat there and fished for an hour or so I could make a nice round 10 gold between the firefins and the blackmouths.

Just my 2 Copper

I wish you could fish with polearms...

In Menethil Harbor, between Deepwater Tavern and the old Osprey shipwreck (the shipwreck a bit southeast on the map) ... I found a school of Firefin snapper.

I was working on the Morbent Fel quest for the ingots and saw a school of red fish swimming around.

As soon as I saw it, I jumped on shore, equipped my rod and fished away. I must have gotten 8 or 9 Firefin Snappers before the school eventually left.

One way to see the school from above the water is there will be a circle on the top of the water ... sort of like a disturbance of something swimming beneath it. That's a good marker to look for. Try to get your bobber to land in or around the circle for best catching results!

There were also several schools of Oily Blackmouth fish around the other shipwrecks in the area too.

Kommentar von Thottbot

With 1.9, you can now find schools of Firefin Snappers in Cragpool Lake west of the loggers in Stonetalon Mountains. But... it's not just a school of fish, it's an "oil spill", complete with a black goo and a barrel floating in it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You can catch them both off the docks in southshore at level 65 without needing any further +'s with bait.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I really don't have a difficult time when I look for these. The best place for me thus far is on the coast in Shadowprey Village. When ever I get there is about 3 schools floating around.

Kommentar von Thottbot

WHenever I need some snappers, or some money I always take my Horse to Dustwhallow Marsh. Start at the graveyard near Theramore, and walk along the beach till Ratchet. Many spots there, and almost no competition, like in STV

Kommentar von Thottbot

300/300 Spec

I don't know if it's any different on your servers... but my little secret sweet spot for Finefins and Blackmouths are in Desolace. If you just run the coast at Shadowprey Village (horde) then when your done farming there... go north to the next open coast line.. there's about 5 or 6 more schools there.

By the time you're done farming one area, you can go back to the other and it's replinished!

Happy Fishing!

Kommentar von Thottbot

"also for firefin snappers, i caught like 13 in Stonetalon mountains on Cragpool lake, near an oil spill i got em."

Confirmed

This is the best place to get firefins, also watertight chests when you cast into the floating debris. Go up and down the river there and you will get 20+ stack in no time.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Went fishing in Stonehale mountains and caught 34 in 40 minutes with a lure on. As well as a bunch of greens from the floating wreckage. Just start at the top of the rover and make your way south. By the time your done the top ones respawn. Expect to get 3-5 on average from each pool with a low of 2 and a high of 7. Goodluck :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Booty Bay have both Oily Blackmouth and Firefin Snappers, lots of them. Just go to Booty Bay.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just got done spending 1 hour farming for Firefin Snappers in Windshear Crag, Stonetalon Mt. Payout was 48 Firefin Snappers, and some stranglekelp. Just follow the pool of water and keep hitting the oil spills. Pretty much every cast i put in came up with one. No oily blackmouths which surprised me. Started fishing skill at 84+50(nightcrawler) and ended at 131+50.

Havent tried Shadowprey village coast which i hear is great also, but for low lvls who need the firefin for Alch then i think Windshear Crag is the place to be. Happy Fishing.

Kommentar von Thottbot

instead of standing in one place fishing, i started walking north on the west coast of stranglethorn vale, looking for schools of firefin.

to my suprise these schools was plentyfull

1 hour later i had over 60 firefinns, 20 blackmouts and almost 40 stranglekelp.
from floating wreckage i got boxes wich gave me 11 green items to sell, bolts of mageweave/silk and rune cloth, and a book that taught me the "find fish"-skill.
this skill is a tracking skill that makes all schools and wreckage apear on the minimap, making them easy to see.

if your looking for firefin snapper or blackmouths i recommend doing this.

(was 305 fishing skill when i started, didnt need any lures and such)

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found a good firefin school at 27 17 in the wetlands, got about 6 from it before it went.

Kommentar von Robbie

Firefin Snappers are used by alchemists to create Feueröl.
Southshore, Wetlands and the eastern coast of Dustwallow Marsh are popular areas to fish these pools.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I fshed for a while in MH and caught 20 Oilys and 11 firefins in about 30mins
Lvl 125 now lvl 40
BTW where do u get the next lvl of training for the fishing once u hit 150?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So... What is the level required to fish these 'lil tackers?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Another great place to find schools of these fish is at Shadowprey village, in Desolace. Just follow the coastline south of the village and numerous schools of the fish spawn at a quite decent rate!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Not having any luck getting these, someone who's caught them fairly regularly mind letting us know what your fishing is up to and how often/not often you get them, and where? Please and thank you

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got 8 in about 25 mins at Menethil Harbor -once I got pass 135 skill got 3 in a row and also a lot of oilys also.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Have fished for firefin and oily in several places. Without doubt, the docks in Menethil is the best....I took 3 toons from under 140 to 225 here, and the oily came roughly 1` in 3 catches, and the firefin came roughly 1 for each 2 oily caught. This by actual count.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got 13 Firefin Snapper and 30 Oily Blackmouths in an hour...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

what level do you need of fishing to fish them?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

have to be fished for as far as i know

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Hi,

I was reading the posts on this site and went to menethil harbour to fish. I was there for a little over an hour and fished 100 oily blackmouths and 40 fire fins. My fishing skill is at 150 and I used fishing baubles that added +75 to +100 skill.

I don't know if this will be much help to any of you but I thought I'd share. It seemed pretty successful for the oily blackmouths but the fire fins were a little bit more rare to catch.

Anyways happy fishing.

I am a lower level under 20 horde. I have trouble fishing from booty bay at level 100 with a 50 and 75 lure. Are their any horde locations with good drops for these?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I went to Southshore last night around 8pm EST. I found that on the Eastern Strand there were lots of Firefin Snapper schools while on the Wesetern Strand there were lots of Oily Blackmouth schools. You guys should try it out, I hope it works as well for you as it did for me. Happy fishing.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It appears that if one fishes near the naga on the beach at southshore, you can fish up one every ten minutes, or every fifteen or so fish, I was there for two hours and came away with 4 of them, enough to make 1 potion of Firepower... Hmmm I guess I'll have to try Booty Bay

Kommentar von Allakhazam

:D.....i got 40 oilys,5 stonescales,23 firefins and 1 smmal locked chest outside gormgol base camp in 3 h.with 180 fishing and 75+lure

anybody know where the vendor is that sells these?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Long live Menenthil i got in 15 minutes at lvl 65 fishing 4 firefin snappers and 2 oily blackmouths

Kommentar von Allakhazam

something strange happens with their drop rate (or it's totally random ofc). I fished tons on the dock of horde village in Desolace while doing my 225+ fishing q. I mean 15+ of each in less than 2 hrs and thinking I got the perfect spot I went back again some day later only to get 2-3 in 30 mins... They're pretty thin in AH and when they do appear they cost a lot...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Awesome place to fish for these is in Windshear crag in the Blackwolf River and Cragpool Lake.

I was there during peak hours on a weekend and fished for these uninterrupted.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Feuerflossenschnapper found it useful and entertaining. He's not advertising anything but helpful tips >:P Doi.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If you go to the very north-eastern tip of Darkshore, you will come to the edge of the Veiled Sea. I had to swim to get to this point. I started fishing from a rock outcroping just past the deep water(when your swimming, you'll see what I'm talking about) with a fishing skill of 110 and no lure. I caught 3 firefins in the first 10 minutes, but no more untill I reached skill lvl 125 where I caught another 4 in 10 minutes. After that I was able to catch one more for about every 8 - 10 minutes of fishing. In total I caught 11 firefins and 5 oily blackscales in 45 minutes time.

Fishing these and Blackmouths in the "Schools" off the coast of STV, got 33 of these and 37 black in 1 hr. + i got like 20 chest, wich incl. bolts of RC, MW, Silk. Money. Food and some greenies

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Booty Bay is by far the best place to catch them. In about 2 hours fishing with a 225 skill and +100 lure I caught 17 of them and another 10 Oily Blackmouths. These fish went for a lot in the AH, too.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

to booty bay then!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Since no one's mentioned it. Try the Oil Spills in Stonetalon. The spills consistently have Firefins and sometimes you'll find wreckage that contains boxes with goodies.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Southshore is packed with schools of these guys...pretty easy to find...just walk along the shore and watch out for the murlocs xD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

where is the best place to catch em?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got them there with a fishing skill below 100.

Had no idea what they were used for so my bird ate them...

Well, guess I regret feedin' 'em to the bird now.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just mount up and run along the STV coast. Schools of them are frequent and you get 4-6 fish per school.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just found these in Booty Bay on the pier near the Wharfmaster at level 30, with a skill of 106 using a +100 lure.

They were few and far between..about 3 in 15 mins of fishing.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got 13 from Menethil Harbor in under an hour...
Also got 20 Oily Blackmouths.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't know if this is true for anyone else. I look on the AH and there are people with starting bids for these things (stack of 20) at 1g and 2g buyout. I am only trying to sell them for 1g buyout now because they weren't getting bought and they still aren't. I put them up every day and nobody buys them...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Outside of grom'gol camp and at the docks in descolace i got about 17-20 in les then 15 minutes, try the schools of firefins and blackmouths, the crates give u nice stuff sometimes to and the rumsyrum u get sells good to.. dont fish outside of schools it'll take u 10 times the time...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If you have low level but you want to hook them, you can go to Stontalon Mountains and there in Cragpool Lake and Blackwolf river. There is a lot of them. You have to fish the schools!

Kommentar von Deformaster

Go in Stonetalon Mountains. Go there in Windshear crag (east) and look for oil spills along the Blackwolf river. If u start from the lake in the north to the end of the river, u should find at least 5 schools, including wreckages.

Kommentar von LibertyBoy

I've had almost 100% chance of getting them in the Oil Spills located in Stonetalon Mountains at Windshear Crag.

Kommentar von MikelosM

There's a place in Stranglethorn where I plopped down to fish (starting, I had 129 fishing skill + 75 from the shiny bauble). I caught 15 Firefin Snappers (and 15 Oily Blackmouths) in 40 minutes; about one Firefin every 2m40s. My haul:

80 - Other - 72%
15 - Firefin Snapper - 14%
15 - Oily Blackmouth - 14%

Kommentar von KnightTime

While Stranglethorn Vale is listed as the highest drop rate zone, I decided to fly to Wetlands to spend an hour leveling (from 180 to 215 during my time there) as it was much closer to Ironforge. The results:

134 Raw Rainbow Fin Albacore (~65.4%)
38 Oily Blackmouth (~18.5%)
31 Firefin Snapper (~15.1%)
2 Waterlogged Crate (miscellaneous engineering materials)

That works out to roughly one catch every 18 seconds, on average. The listed 16% rate for Firefin Snapper versus my result was pretty close. If the type of "trash fish" matters, STV is better because of Raw Rockscale Cod and Raw Spotted Yellowtail drops.

Kommentar von CommanderAmaro

I caught a ton like 24+ Firefin in about 30 mins in Stontalon. Thats waaaay more then any other area I tried plus its low level and you dont have to worry about pvp to much there.

one stack of 20 sells for 1silver. and never never sold in auction. not even the fire oil or fire potion.
I must say that this fish is almost useless. cannot cook as food as well.

Kommentar von Ssateneth

On Classic SOD- if you're alliance, I think Wetlands ocean coast open water fishing is probably your best bet to get both Feuerflossenschnapper and Öliges Schwarzmaul in relatively efficient numbers. I got about twice as much blackmouth as firefins. I also tried in Stranglethorn (booty bay fishing off the docks) and got about the same amount of each, overall less per time. Hillsbrad ocean fishing off Southshore dock may be about the same %'s as Wetlands.
