Fishing Buddy
A fishing addon that keeps track of the fish you catch and helps manage your fishing gear.
Other Versions
Features:
- Double-click fishing
- Supports the new WoW "fish without a pole" feature
- Bring out your fishing pets! Drink heavily!
- 'Fish Watcher' lets you see the fish you've caught here before (or the fish that you've caught in the current session)
- Display your current skill level and the time since you started fishing - Choose your fishing outfit and change into it easily
- Support for automatically adding a lure to your fishing pole
- Support for tracking 'cycle fish' such as the Nightfin Snapper so you know when to go looking for them
Example commands:
/fishingbuddy or /fb toggle the display of the Fishing Buddy window /fb help print the list of Fishing Buddy commands
/fb switch wear your chosen fishing outfit, or change back
Known Issues:
"Fast Loot" addons will mess with FB counting fish -- they're gone before they can get counted. I am trying to find a work-around, but nothing solid yet.
Silly stuff:
In addition to displaying the fishing bonus for your fishing outfit, it also displays your 'style points' as inferred from Draznar's Fishing FAQ (http://wow.toshimo.com/viewtopic.php?t=272).

Same for me. Tried everything and still not working.
In reply to McAoifeDA:
I am at a loss. It works for me and I use it daily without issue.
There are some use cases I'm trying to fix (liek click to move), but all of the core functionality should be working for everyone :-(
In reply to Sutorix:
Everything after the 1.19 betas haven't worked for me and I can't understand why. I keep having to go back to 1.19.2 and deleting "InventoryEvents["WEAR_EQUIPMENT_SET"] = true" and then it works again. It's so weird.
In reply to Sutorix:
I even backed up and deleted the Fishing Buddy .wtf files and have no other addons enabled, and nothing works. not even easy casting. I dont get it either, dont know why it works for you^^
Version 1.20.4
- Display progress on fishing gear quests
- Update TOC
you have to equip your fishing gear for right click to cast without a modifier
What happened to the Stat window Overlay that showed you what u caught, time and etc etc..FB v1.20.3. DF 10.0.5
Could you add a condition that prevents your fishing code to be run while in combat? Because i use right click for my abilities and when im in fight or raid etc, double clicking my right mouse button leads to target change or remove my target. Would be really nice, thanks for this addon
Greetings,
I have tried almost everything from the comments. I uninstalled and reinstalled it by deleting everything manually and still, it does not work at all!
I am facing that issue since the start of the Dragonflight. I love the addon and I am using it for many years now. It makes me sad that everything I try is not working and writing here is my last solution. I am using the addon mostly for the AMAZING "Enchance fishing sounds" feature and I guess it is supposed to switch automatically the sounds the moment I click the Fishing button to start the fishing (since there are no equipped fishing rods anymore).
What should I do ;(
In reply to mew_the_real:
The addon is not working at all for me either
In reply to Decady:
When I use my [Garrison Hearthstone]. The sound options are changing to something like the FB used to do when I was equipping the Fishing Rod, but I don't know if the Fishing Buddy doing that. It is the only clue I got. Other than that I can't understand how it works to some people here... I have tried many things (i dont know if I missed anything) and it did not work.
So the rest just go to a poll "press Fishing" and their sound settings are changing to Enchanted Fishing Sounds? and since we don't have something to un-equip now, how the settings are returned to normal when u stop fishing?
Using v1.20.3
Still got the ClickToMove problem, and FB activating using portals, posting auctions (even the watcher pops there), and sometimes the mailbox.
I completely removed FB and all the SV files, loaded into game, without it, clickToMove was ticked and working.
Exited game and installed a fresh copy, and it's doing the same thing. Have to reload if I use a portal.
After enabling ClickToMove, and reloading, then go fishing it works fine, turns itself off when I mount up and fly off. But dare to use a portal or hearth, it turns CTM off and enhance sounds on
Edit:
seems after logging on, a reload (without going and turning CTM on) is enough to turn it back on
In reply to imjayc2:
I have no idea what's going on. For me, FB only activates when I double-click using the casting key. What mouse button setting are you using?
I will play with click to move (I don't usually have it on, I find it annoying ;-)
In reply to Sutorix:
modifyer alt and right double click
I can post my SV files if it helps, but they look ok to me, still have the old ones in my recycle bin too
I've repeatably tested this with just FB active.
With double-click casting enabled, FB seems to turn off "Click-To-Move" and it stays turned off after fishing is done, not re-enabling without force (macro or toggling.) What's worse, is that even after turning it back on myself, upon next logon into the game it's *off again*. Every time, even if I don't fish. This is super annoying. Would it be possible to make it so that FB toggles it back on with an option? If it's Blizzards bug that makes it not turn back on properly, at least making it so FB can turn it back on would save a macro slot.
Version 1.20.3
- Full linting and cleanup pass on all the code which probably fixed some subtle bugs
Working through all of the old features and setting up to add new ones.
This is absolutely not the most important thing but is there a way to randomize the raft that's summoned? For ages it didn't work at all, and now it just summons my gnarlwood waveboard. Would love to be able to add the angler fishing raft and tuskarr boat as options.
Very strange. Today Easy cast stop works at all. Without any errors. Fished items list appears, but Easy cast not works (I mean "double RMB click"). I haven`t any new addons or changed any Fishing Buddy settings. There is problem on all my chars.
P.S. Something unbelievable. Today all work as needed. Sorry for my previous post.
I would pay real money for an option to be able to cast over the Looking for Lunkers channel without having to click a macro. When i am fishing, I don't want to have my meditative flow interrupted.
Then I remembered about the Use Action option. I created a Macro and now it interrupts the channel.
So, I spoke too soon. Use Action with the macro does NOT interrupt the Looking for Links cast.
Does everyone just stop fishing and go after the lunker with an harpoon?
In reply to drgall:
Look for the new addon Better Fishing that has an option that “Allow fishing while “Looking for Lurkers” buff is active”, plus it does the coffee: I now fish with my bare foot on a second keyboard (you'll understand finding that addon!)
