Guide to profit while browsing tankspot.

1: Make sure you have a 22" wide screen. It might work on smaller screens though.

2: go in windowed mode and make the screen pretty small, also bind fishing to a key.

3: make sure you hear wow-sounds while another window is focused.

4: Open tankspot, set up your windows so you see both.

5: Start fishing and go back to tankspot, when you hear the "hooked" sound, double rightclick to catch your fish. (1 to focus the wow window and 1 to actually reel the fish in. Press you hotkeyed fishing button and go back to reading tankspot.

6: Once in a while you'll get Pygmy Suckerfish - Item - World of Warcraft as a by catchh.
As alchemist I was able to make 21 Pygmy Oil - Spell - World of Warcraft out of 12 fishes.

7: Go to the AH and put up the Pygmy Oil for 40G a piece.....profit.

8: I caught about 12 of em during 40 minutes of fishing right outside Vendeance Landing where the crabs are.

And yeah, ~2k gold in 3 days with tankspot to keep me entertained.

One of the things I noticed is that when you make the wow-window smaller, the "clickbox" for reeling in the fish stays the same size, so it didn't become harder to fish with a smaller window, I'd even say easier. Also a lot of the other fish can be used for buf-food (which I use myself or give away to the raid) but can make quite a bit of gold on AH also.

I think the three word game deserves a sticky too.

Stickies tend to reduce visibility unless something is in danger of falling off the page.

You have a point, I doubt the three word game is going to fall off the page until the thread breaks.

Not yet. Christmas day is so close yet so far away. Achievements are a godsend.
