On the trail of Mr. Pinchy

Latura heard on the grapevine that in Terokkar forest located in Outland in three specific lakes there are pools of fish known as "Highland Mixed School". She also heard that within these schools of fish you are able to find what is called a "Mr. Pinchy" a type of Lobster. Some other players say that "Mr. Pinchy" is so named after the "Mr. Pinchy" lobster who was featured in The Simpsons TV cartoon. She is unsure as to how easily they are found but she have discovered that "Furious Crawdads" are also found in these pools so right now she attempts to find out how easy it is to get a "Mr. Pinchy" companion and what it actually does.

Lake Ere'Noru
This lake is relatively small and hidden in the hills behind "Allerian Stronghold" the Alliance Base, it is a very safe area with no MOBs to attack.

Latura realised that it's a safe area as long as you don't do a "Lemming" and jump off a cliff without being on a winged mount or have a parachute attached to your back at least.

Six Highland Mixed School locations confirmed with the assistance of Gatherer. It seems these fish pools do not spawn very often and fishers regular fly overhead awaiting these valuable pools of fish, hopefully etiquette will be remembered by any people poaching Latura's pools. The Highland Mixed School fishing pools generally give you between 3 - 5 loots.

Blackwind Lake
This is the largest of the three lakes in Terrokar Forest and located to the west of "Skettis" and there are plenty of "Highland Mixed Schools" to go with it. Well plenty of spawning locations at least. However water elementals known as "Skettis Surger" have also made this lake their home, they are usually between level 71 and 73 but watch out there is an elite elemental called Alluvion who annoyingly gets in the way of Latura's Fishing. It also appears that these fishing pools only support between 3 and 6 loots.

At this point Latura became very aware of a huge "Talonsworn Forest Rager" who wanders the East side of the lake. She knew instinctively that  he will undoubtedly stomp her to death, so jumping on her flying mount she escaped. So watch out for "Camera Shake" that simply means get ready to bolt out of the giants way!

This lake is located in the hills above "Stonebreaker Hold", it again is a quiet lake with no enemy MOBS to annoy but this one does have a fishing platform and two friendly MOBS these are like bird people / witch doctors and are known as "Minion of Sar'this".

Pool 1 Findings:
#1 Golden Darter
#2 Furious Crawdad

#4 Furious Crawdad
#5 Furious Crawdad

Pool 2 Findings:
#1 Golden Darter
#2 Curious Crate (contains 6x Netherweave Cloth)
#3 Furious Crawdad

Pool 3 Findings:
#1 Furious Crawdad
#2 Furious Crawdad
#3 Barbed Gill Trout
#4 Inscribed Scrollcase (conains Scroll of Intellect VI)
#5 Enormous Barbed Gill Trout
#6 Furious Crawdad

Pool 4 Findings:
#1 Furious Crawdad
#2 Furious Crawdad
#3 Golden Darter
#4 Furious Crawdad

Pool 5 Findings:
#1 Furious Crawdad
#2 Furious Crawdad
#3 Inscribed Scrollcase (contains: Scroll of Intellect VI)
#4 Furious Crawdad

From all of this information Latura concludes that at each "Highland Mixed Pool" can fish and loot between 3 and 6 times. Within those loots there is a great chance at finding "Furious Crawdad" but are also very easily able to also find "Barbed Gill Trout", "Curious Crate", "Enormous Barbed Gill Trout", "Golden Darter", "Huge Spotted Feltail", "Inscribed Scrollcase", "Mote of Water" and of course "Spotted Feltail".

Latura will keep trying to capture the elusive "Mr. Pinchy"!
