Re: Others preparing for the Sea Calf?

I'm at 36 now and have a landshark. I may be the guy selling my sea calf for major gold right out of the box and fishing up another for myself.
Tip, I move around to optimize my drops. Spires and Shadowmoon for the Ephemeral Fishing Pole (+100 fishing, lasts 24 hours of in game play time), and the other zones to catch a Hightfish Cap or Tentacled Cap (+100 fishing, lasts one calendar week). I find I play too much so my hats last longer than my poles. You can get fishing close to 1150 with bait and buffs, over 1200 if fishing in a group and getting hit with pheromone fish. I seem to average about a lunker every 40min. My best was 3 lunkers in 4 casts. I then went 2.5 hours without another blue item (I was trying to replace my pole at that point.)
