So does anyone know where to "fish" for this rat, in the crater or is it a LK thing?

评论来自 82413

i believe you will be able to fish this as soon as WoTLK is released, while playing WoTLK you will be able to visit the city of Dalaran which was removed from eastern kingdoms in 3.0.2.

评论来自 Matsumi

You need at least 430 to cast and 525 to avoid get aways.

So is anywhere in the Underbelly okay to fish in, or do you need to be in a specific part?

评论来自 Assassinman

The waters of Dalaran require 430 effective fishing skill to cast, 525 to stop fish getting away.

Dalaran Underbelly Catches Fish Sample Catches

Percentage of all Catches
Crystal Vial 2 / 0.3%
Drowned Rat 23 / 3.9%
Empty Vial 42 / 7.0%
Enchanted Vial 1 / 0.2%
Giant Sewer Rat 1 / 0.2%
Imbued Vial 1 / 0.2%

I obtained mine about 50 casts down by the Cantrips & Crows. I was waterwalking out by the gate in the water. Careful its BoP so you do get a message to accept picking it up. My fishing was 450. I had equipped a +20 fishing rod and a bright bauble that was +75 fishing.

Fished mine up at cantrips and crows today. Took less than 50 casts. Pure luck probably, but it definitely can be fished up there, so don't give up :)

Got my pet rat today after about 800 casts.

Dropped within the Cantrips & Crows, with me standing right at the end of the pier.

OK, people will hate me or something, but I got my Giant Rat in 14 casts in Cantrips & Crows.

Well something good came of all the d/c's i have been having all i could do was fish and sure enough i fished up the rat on the 4th cast lol. I was in cantrips and crows fishing off the dock there. I have though fished before over 1000 casts and did not get it. Good luck on your fishing it up.

评论来自 240318

I just caught it after 9 hrs of fishing, unfortunately i recast before i looted, still debating if im gonna try to catch it......again.

EDIT: Caught it a second time after 153 more casts while waiting to talk to a GM about the first time lol

Ok here is the break down on fishing in the Underbelly of Dalaran. There are 3 places to fish, The Black Market, Circle of Wills, and Cantrips and Crows. The Giant Sewer Rat can be caught in any of these 3 locations.

I fished all 3 locations with Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole, Weather Beaten Fishing Hat, and Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots. I used the +75 Fishing Skill boost you get by using the hat to apply a lure to the pole. This gave me 565 fishing.

The Black Market
Sewer Carp = 47.2%
Magic Eater = 26.4%
Empty Vial = 11.3%
Drowned Rat = 11.3%
Partially Eaten Fish = 3.8%

Circle of Wills
Sewer Carp = 77.4%
Magic Eater = 18.0%
Empty Vial = 2.3%
Reinforced Crate = 1.5%
Crystallized Water = 0.9%

Cantrips and Crows
Sewer Carp = 57.8%
Magic Eater = 23.0%
Empty Vial = 7.0%
Drowned Rat = 5.3%
Partially Eaten Fish = 4.8%
Imbued Vial = 0.5%
Enchanted Vial = 0.5%
Crystal Vial = 0.5%
Leaded Vial = 0.5%

I've been trying to fish this thing up for about a month now...

I have very bad luck -_-

评论来自 298210

Got mine last night. Fished from 5pm - 11pm Sunday, and 7pm - 9pm Monday. Not 100% sure about the # of casts, but it was somewhere around 1200. As most say, I confirm that I got mine at Cantrips & Crows. I fished it at the end of the dock, facing the most open water at the end, no trick here but saying as when you are casting the 800th time you start second guessing yourself. Good luck & good patience!

Actually, this is NOT a criteria of the achievement Accomplish Angler and the title "salty"

评论来自 255327

Spent about an hour and a half on this today (total of about 8 hours over 3 days trying). Finally got it.

评论来自 splunge

I saw this posted somewhere, i dont remember where, some time ago, and today i decided to give it a try:

1. Get the Crocolisks in the City daily in your log, but dont complete it.
2. Join a raid. Ask a buddy to make a group and convert to raid.
3. Get an Underbelly Elixir, and get the "Hungry Tuskarr" buff (+50 fishing skill)
4. Go fishing for the Giant Rat (or Mr Pinchy).

Doing this i got the Giant Rat on the 17th cast.

No idea if it will work for you, or if I just got really lucky.

评论来自 HedderPilsner

I caught my sewer rat in Cantrips and Crowes. I was standing in the little boat on the side next to the dock where the fishing supply vendor is for almost 2 hours before I gave up and switched sides after catching over 20 empty vials and a ton of carp. I ran over to the boardwalk that is on the second level up, on the opposite side of the dock with the fishing vendor where the path to enter and leave the sewer is, and caught the rat on like the 5th try.

评论来自 307391

ok what made this achievement alot easier was haveing the epic fishing pole from hitting exhaulted with the kalu'ak Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole with Aquadynamic Fish Attractor or the hooks that you get from the shat fish daily and they stack with the hungry tuskar buff you can get with the underbelly pots that u find in the underbelly wich brings your plus to fishing to 180

Ehrm the drops in raids never really dropped for me..

Just aside the shark :)

Good Luck !

评论来自 Liquidor

Submitted a screenshot of exactly where you can stand to fish for the rat!
Good luck fishing.

Having the Fishing Daily does not improve your changes for a catch btw.

Note: Got mine after 83 catches <3

评论来自 73416

For those of you fishing with autoloot be very careful that you do not move or recast when you have the BoP loot popup on the screen, or you will lose the rat. I can confirm that you do NOT get the achievement for catching the rat, as you might think with the wording of the achievement. Instead you get the achievement when you loot the rat. Note this is different, and thus unexpected, from the Old Crafty/Old Ironjaw achievements, which you complete simply by fishing up the fish, regardless of whether you looted it or not.

I was fishing up the rat under the impression that you didn't have to pay much attention because you would hear the achievement noise upon catching it, and thus would be less likely to accidentally move or recast. But this is not the case, so take heed fishers!

评论来自 322140

I was lucky enough to fish up one of these about 15 minutes before a server shutdown. It took me less than 10 minutes on this particular day. I fished it up from the sewers in Cantrips and Crows, Dalaran. I was standing on the lower platform under the deck.

My fishing skill was at 450, with a +100 fish hook attached to the Nat Pagle's Extreme Angler FC-5000 fishing rod.

评论来自 325944

hi id like to add my story of catching the rat. i fished from 6am till about 1pm, wasnt paying attention when i cought the rat and cast out again :(. so i lost it. continued fishing until 11 pm that night then started at 6 am again, i finnaly just cought it at 11:25 am. So im thinkin that fishing for it from the very begining will take about 10-12 hours. i dnt know the exact # of casts but i filled up 3 20 slot bags 2 and a half times, on the 2nd time fishing for it. so to those that have cought it after 10 casts grats, but if your tryn for this b prepared to sit there 4 a lil bit, but make sure u pay attention to wat u catch. i cought it both times at the end of the dock at cantrips and crows

As of patch 3.1, it is no longer required to have a minimum of 430 fishing skill to cast in Dalaran (or anywhere now I believe). Had 244 Fishing at the time and +100 lure attached with +20 skill from fishing rod, putting me at 364 skill level total. Managed to fish up this guy and skill up to 245 Fishing at the same time after a good half hour or so of fishing in the Underbelly.

评论来自 226154

Well, I guess it's time to make everyone angry. Out of superstition i pulled my 4 stack of rabbit's foot out of the bank. Whether it works or not, with a fishing skill of 256 and a +100 item on my rod, I caught him in 3 casts. Cantrips and Crows.

Raises the question, doesn't it? Are they lucky? Last time I had them on me I scored an Azure Whelpling in less than 30 minutes.

评论来自 353041

So I have been fishing for this the past couple days. I am at 388 skill with a +30 from pole and +100 from lure and havent got anything but junk basically. I see a guy get the achievement for 25 fish. 2 min later he gets the sewer rat. So all of the notes saying how high your fishing has to be is wrong. Not long after he got the rat he got 50 fish. I feel like I wasted all my time. So just fyi to everyone that it doesnt matter what your fishing skill is to get this pet

got mine after about 15mins in Cantrips and Crows. Time to test my luck on the turtle!

评论来自 astrall

Just got mine after 3 hrs of fishing @450 fishing and +100 lure in the Cantrips and Crows part of the sewers. Was getting really bored and was reading the comments here and noticed someone mentioned Underbelly Elixir. Remembered I had found one in the sewers the other day so drank it. It turned me into a wasp which I thought probably wouldn't help much, but....I buzzed around over the surface of the water, cast my rod while still in the water and got the Rat on the first try!

评论来自 355900

for what its worth.. did this in just 44 casts.. maxed fishing +35 (buffs from pole and hat)
cantrips and crows... over by the right side down the ramp to the water.. other side was crowded.
only misses i had were when i wasnt paying attention.

评论来自 aluk

I had to register just to say this. I was fishing all day for this guy, and finally got him. I fish with auto loot on, to make things faster. Weird thing was, there was no dialog box that popped up asking me to accept the rat, it just went straight into my inventory just like any normal fish.

I don't know if they changed that about the rat in 3.1, or what... But apparently there's no confirmation box required to accept the rat.

评论来自 Draekesfury

newest patch allows you to fish anywhere anytime, so this quest should be available to everyone now regardless of fishing level.

I got this achievement after about 5 days of fishing in the Sewers. Got it on the left side of Cantrips and Crows.

- Last night was doing fishing daily and fished up another one! However once I left the sewers it despawned from
my bag. My assumption is since I already had learned the summons that WoW will not let you keep another one.
Not that I would want to, other then to boast at my guild members who have been fishing for over a month and have
not caught it. :)

评论来自 364679

I don't know if this made a difference, but after two weeks of fishing for this rat for two hours at least every day, I finally got my rat on the came cast that I fished up my Corroded Jewelry for the quest Jewel of the Sewers. Maybe it works along the same line as the crocolisk quest?

评论来自 256389

As I have been reading those nice subjects while I fished, I first have to say : Ty for your contributions =)

Then, I do confirm that auto-loot does work now, as you will not see a yes or no question window pop as you achieve this.

I did not loot it first time, more likely it was on my 3 500 catch.

Hope never dies, and you will have it if you keep on trying.

Do not loose hope, that's the key, and have fun while trying, do not hesitate to loose some catch as you discuss with other, they are not your enemies, it is independant event, so they will not loot yours but theirs.

(though I do have to agree it is so much easier to agree if you see no one achieving this as you cast your 3 499th catch. :=) ).

评论来自 Deathdealers

Hi, i would like to say that this is definitly based on luck and unfortunatly i have none :(
I did 483 casts in Cantrips and Crows, did not catch him, and gave up, Did it another day for aprox 200 casts in same place, still did not catch him. GL to those who try to catch him.

My 483 casts took about 1hr 30min, and the 200 casts the next day took about 45min.

评论来自 phreakdb

caught it with a collective fishing skill of 220.

215 + Strong Fishing Pole

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=The+Venture+Co&n=Gabryell

Location: In front of the bar itself, in the little nook with the drain. not the one with the boards going down to the water, but one on the other side. I won't touch my fishing for a while. Just shows, there is no skill requirement.

评论来自 Loftie

I have just finished this with my second level 80. With the first one I got it by accident when doing the daily by Cantrips. A real bonus. The second alt. I set out to do it. I gave up counting casts but I think it was between 850-900 (spread over 3 days). I had done about 30 casts into the third day when it dropped. As others have said definitly a luck thing.

By the way, both done with auto loot on with no problems.

评论来自 403252

Hey guys, caught it within 10 minutes. I went to Cantrips & Crows and stood on the dock to the left of the fisherman in the boat.I stood on the upper left corner of the dock, and aimed more towards the left so that the bobber would hit right up against the wall. My skill was 370 (+135). Used Seth's fising pole, had a fishing hat, and a glow worm lure.

Why there? My logic is that the bobber has to land in "The Underbelly". Just like how people can catch it in the Dalaran Fountain is because their bobber landed in The Underbelly. So even though you are standing in Cantrips & Crows, your bobber is landing in The Underbelly.

Good luck!

评论来自 352883

I just caught mine at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern. Only about 20 or so casts, but I was to the right of the tavern. I had Nat's Lucky Fishing Pole (+25 fishing), a +100 lure, and the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat that you get from the fishing dailies, which added +5. So total I was at 580 fishing.

评论来自 Skymasaki

I must be a lucky one... I fished the Giant Sewer Rat in 15 casts. I was on the docks in The Cantrips and Crow Tavern. My fishing is 380 and I had a Big Iron Fishing Pole (+20 fishing) with a Bright Bauble (+75 fishing).

评论来自 Destler

I got this last night after fishing for about 2 hours total. I am a grand master fisherman and I was using simply a iron fishing pole and the sparkly beads you can buy. Ironically enough, I caught the rat without any buffs (I wasn't paying attention to my buff running out.) But my fishing was not over 400 unbuffed. So keep at it, you can do it.

I was on the docks at the Cantrips and Crow Tavern. Seems to be a lucky spot.

评论来自 342407

Stood on the dock at the Cantrips and Crows, fished it up after just 10 casts at 5.17 AM server time.

hahah just got this on my warlock Senith, Draenor US PVE.

I saw that most of you said you got it in the Cantrips and Crows area, so I went, applied the glow worm to my kaluak pole and 2nd cast, I got it =]

Now if only I could be so lucky with the sea turtle and old ironjaw...

评论来自 431655

Just got it :D
... and I got it in the Black Market so it most likely doesn't matter where in the sewers you fish for it.
I fished for it mostly in Cantrips & Crows (first 3-400 casts) Then I moved to the Black Market and some 50+ casts later I got it.

I suspect every skillpoint in fishing you can get matters. I had 655 fishing skill when i caught it.
Also got http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27388 a few days ago after 30-40 minutes (not gotten the ach yet... have 2 more tries). Had fishing at 500+ when i got it

How I got 655 fishing skill:
Fishing skill 450
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19970 Arcanite Fishing Pole +40
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19971 High Test Eternium Fishing Line +5
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19969 Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots +5
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33820 Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat +5
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=6533 Aquadynamic Fish Attractor +100
and the Tuskarr outfit from http://www.wowhead.com/?item=44012 +50

I can have gotten lucky with these but i suspect it has more to do with the fact my fishing skill was very high.
Gonna try fishing in Ironforge next (behind enemy lines) with the same approach: As many skill points in fishing as possible :)

Don't even bother trying to cast redemption on a drowned rat, it doesn't work. ;)

Just got mine today! I know several of people, who fished the GIANT rat up from the ramp right to the inn (when you're facing the inn) - which also is where I got my rat.

Happy fishing! (Took me around 6 hours....)

评论来自 ZiaGaming

Got him today. 741 casts. Off the platform facing open water at cantrips and crows. Pretty nifty pet if i say so myself.

评论来自 173429

I've now been fishing for a grand total of 9.5 hours.... i've watched 5 people get the achievement (one of whom had fishing at lvl 9... NINE)... so i know there's no problem with the spot (cantrips & crows)...

I'm slowly losing the will to live, but it's at the point now where i've invested so much time, i can't QUIT!

please.... send help... blankets.... vodka....

Ok I tried at the docks at the bar for sometime. Kept getting fish. So started fishing in different spots under the bar.

I saw a rat running around and wondered if that had something to do with it so tried fishing under where the path it takes.

After a while I noticed I was getting a lot of Drowned Rat and partially eaten fish from one particular spot so I kept fishing there. Got the giant rat 10 mins after in that spot. :D

All in one day. Old Crafty, Crawdad and the rat. :)

评论来自 Zorgnet

Is this achievement just luck or does it actually take a certain spot and fishing skill to catch it?

I spent 6+ hours trying to fish this and I havn't had much luck...
16 stacks of Sewer Carp
8 stacks of Magic Eater
3 stacks of Empty Vial
1 stack of Leaded Vial
3 stacks of Drowned Rat
2 stacks of Partially Eatten Fish
1 stack of Sickly Fish
1 Enchanted Vial
4 Crystalized Vials
No Giant Sewer Rat

What is up with this?

Hardly a valuable comment, but I'm just so happy: I got the Sewer Rat while doing the daily Jewel of the Sewer. And more than that: three casts after, I got 1000 Fish too. I'm going to bed feeling good now. :-)

评论来自 bokou

figured I'd skill up my fishing in the Dalaran sewers since it's pretty quiet down there - after skilling up from 150ish to 251 skill I caught this guy. You don't have to be capped out on your fishing to get it as I was only at 341 after lure and rumsey's lager.

评论来自 bglasgow

I have been fishing for about 20+ hours with over 2200 casts, i have been in Catrips, Circle, Black Market, and the Fountain (even completed the three Coin achievements during this). I use the Underbelly Elixir and with my lures and gear i am at 450+185 so i dont think it is a level issue. I am almost to the point where i dont even care if i get this achievement anymore, but not quite done trying yet.

评论来自 514382

finally after 3 days in the sewers i got it.
now here are my statistics...

aproximatly 20 hours of only fishing, 9 hours one day, 6 or 7 the next day, and the third day like 2 hours.

i fished all the time in the same spot after reading the posts here, cantrips and crows, on both ends of the dock there.

i fished like:

300 sewer carps
100 magic eaters
30 or 40 empty vials
like 30 pieces of junk (partially eaten fish, drowned rat, tattered cloth....)
5 enchanted vials
10 leaded vials
bet. 5 or 6 cristal and imbued vials

I decided to do the Dalaran fishing daily today. I don't do it often. It was Jewel of the Sewer. I got the rat on my first cast. I was kinda surprised. Maybe this quest increase the drop rate of getting items. I'm not sure about it tho.

评论来自 514382

it took me about 3 days to get this little sucker. the first day i spent at least six or seven hours fishing in cantrips and crows and all i got was pure crap.

after reading all the posts i assumed this was the best spot to get him. the third day i spent at least 15 min fishing at the end of the dock where the little boat is and then i switched to the other end and got it in my third or fourth cast. what a luck!

so people do what i did nd just put on a movie, start casting like crazy and just listen to the splash sound when u catch something.

Took me about 2 hours or 260 cast to get this achievement. Nice rat though. Caught him in the circle of wills

Anyone knows if this rat can be caught when you're in a raidgroup?
I guess you can, since this is not a questitem, but I am not sure...

I got it today after only about 50 tries :)

评论来自 kingjim

on fishing in general you can no longer lose a fish at any lvl or location
and u have to loot something for it to be considered as caught this detail jiped
me out of a few coins from the fountain cause the buff from the gold coin wore off the moment i caught it

I got it today finally when i was doing the Jewelry daily. Wasn't even thinking about getting the pet.

I guess that goes to show you RNG works in your favor when you aren't asking it to >.>
Good luck all you fisherman and fisherwomen :)

You don't have to be in the Dalaran sewers to fish this up. I just got mine fishing at the fountain. Hah, I wasn't even paying attention when I clicked on it, I was fishing for the last gold coin. About 30 minutes fishing, up comes the rat, but no gold coin. :(

评论来自 572958

Just got him less then 5 mins ago on Muradin. Now I don't know if it helps you to have maxed fishing, but all I had was a strong fishing pole (+5) and an Aquadynamic Fish Attractor (+100). My fishing Skill was at 307/375. So my fishing would have been 480. No hat, nothing fancy...and this might make some of you cringe....I got him on my 4th cast. Now I will be the first to say...THIS IS NOT COMMON what so ever! I got him after weeks and weeks of trying. I had given up and had nothing to do today so figured I could try for just a second and BAM! my giant rat friend appeared! Good luck!

I just caught this. I spent an hour last night at the dock of Cantrips & Crows with no success. Just spent ten minutes tonight and caught it at the same exact location. Twenty-eight casts. 450 fishing skill, Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole and a Glow Worm.

Got mine on my 7th or 8th cast while doing my fishing daily. Bone fishing pole, 355 fishing.
Wish I could get as lucky with the turtle.

Got this now with 450 fishing skill; Seth's Graphite Fishing Pole and using Bright Baubles (445 skill total), at the dock with the fishing supply trader. Took about 35 minutes of fishing.

Note: it's pure 525+ fishing for no "get aways" and luck (RNG).

Wooo! Just caught it! I was fishing in the Eventide fountain for my last pesky gold coin for the achievement. Cast landed in the far right back corner near the wall, & I caught the Giant Sewer Rat! Achievement was given as soon as I looted the rat, not upon "using" it.

FYI: I'm at 450/450 fishing skill, had a Glowworm on pole for +100 skill, & was under the influence of a Lucky buff from tossing a Gold coin back into the fountain. Was using Seth's Graphite Fishing Pole.

After coming back after a year, thought I'd give this achievement another try..three casts and I had it, could not believe my eyes...

I am not sure if this means anything or if it is just coincidence. I have been farming this little bast*** off an on for the past couple of months. More than 2,000 casts at Catnips and Crows. I got the "Corroded Jewelry" daily today and caught this bugger on the second cast. Next stop, turtle mount city!

(Fished at 680. 450 fishing, + the Tuscar buff, fishing lure, fishing hat and buffed up pole.)

just got mine after about 800 catches. i was fishing off of the end of the pier at Cantrips & Crows. gl everyone.

评论来自 ibechief

ok so I love achievements for starters and got my daily fishing for corroded jewelry and thought.... might as well see what my chances are of finding this rat thingy....

so i read all these comments and got utterly demoralized with people who said i farmed for 29 hours and fished up 3.8k fish and never got it.

I just got it on my second cast! fishing just off the dock in underbelly. Got my jewelry on the 5th cast! lucky me. 410 or so fishing with a fish hook (+100 fishing)

edit: might be worth noting that i was on the fishing daily

So I decided to buy an aquadynamic fish attractor to see if it would make a difference in what I would catch. About three minutes in, I got the sewer rat. amazing! Because of such a fast catch on a rare item, I'm hooked on using bait now!

Got mine today, 280 skill, no + fishing. Guess I´m lucky ;)

Caught this guy today on my first cast as I logged on. He went straight into my bag, so it looks like blizzard has modified the auto cast problem.

评论来自 Tmicrochip

I got it on my 978th cast. went to click it cause I didn't have auto loot on. It's killing me. I instantly put a ticket in. I'm hoping for the best while I continue to fish it again and wait for a response.

I started for this quest probably when fishing was near 150. I finally got it at 497 by fishing off the pier in Cantrip and Crows. I've spent several weeks off and on working on my fishing skill solely in the Dalaran underbelly so I could kill two birds with one stone (get the achievement and also up my fishing skill).

I made sure I was using nightcrawlers or something so I had extra fishing skill, obviously. It just takes a lot of time and annoyance, as it is a very rare drop. Unlike one poster above, I did get a confirmation box to accept the rat item, but I didn't have auto-loot on. It's just like any other item that drops.

评论来自 742912

Just got it on my 37th cast, at 46, 45 facing West. 485 skill +25 for the pole, got it just after my Aquadynamic lure wore off. Nice that it also gave me my 15th companion too. I had auto-loot on, no problems there.

I was due some luck for this, I've done thousands of casts in Org and haven't got Old Crafty yet!

So, I've read everything here and there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer, when the rat is caught does he go straight into your inventory with a woosh of achievement or do you have to click a box?

I got this after about 250 casts at the Cantrips & Crows @ 525 skill and I may or may not have had the +100 Aquadymatic Fish Attractor on (really don't know if it had run out). I really wasn't paying attention. However, I did get an achievement bar through hooking it and didn't have to press anything for a BOP.

评论来自 Charanari3

Fished this just today, just now. Only took me around 20 casts to get it, with Fishing Skill at 319 +100. I did expect at least a few hours to be honest... Oh well, a Smelly Giant Rat for me... Good luck to all of you!

Guys! I just got it with only one shot! I put on the "lollipop" that gives +100, with my fishing point at 389, and boom! I was at the Cantrips & Crows, as we go inside to the left, at the end of the deck!

Fished this up from the Eventide fountain near the fishing trainer. Spent quite a lot of time and am a gold coin away from The Coin Master, and got this little surprise before it. Just to confirm that it can in fact be caught from there, just as long as your fishing hook lands near the rocks/close to edges. All in all it might be tedious if your fishing hook starts landing anywhere but near the rocks or edges, but if you dont mind going for two achievements at once, it would be an ideal spot. Good Luck to all fishers ;)

Got this 'Orrible little rat today.

on the Pier, with the help of Underbelly Elixir, Fishing pole with +30 skill and lure with +75 at 450 fishing skill.

about 400 casts and it arrived, just be patient and this rats your for the keeping

评论来自 781136

Just got him & fished for about 90 minutes..but after months & months of trying. I'm here to report that i had auto-loot enabled & had zero problem.

Apparently, now, when you fish him up (with auto loot) you automatically get the achievement. Which means if you DONT have auto-loot enabled, when you looted him (obviously) you will get the acheivement. However! You still have to right click to learn him; just as with any other pet =)

i was in Cantrips & Crows when i got him.

A small tip i heard & would like to pass on (im NOT sure if theres ANY merit to this whatsoever, but i when i did this, i fished him up with my 1st time trying this trick :)

i've HEARD that if you target the "Giant Sewer Rat" that hangs out in the Arena area & then go fish in the underbelly of course (be sure you keep him as your target while fishing for him!) that it supposedly increases your chances! Hope this can help someone!

Good luck to everyone trying for this little guy! =)

After 22 hours of fishing on and off for a few days to finish 钱币大师 achievement, I decided that I might as well go for the 好大的老鼠！ while I was already in town before heading over to Ironforge. It took me about an hour to catch him with these statistics:

Fishing Skill 445+80

83 Sewer Carp
32 Magic Eaters
19 Crystal Vials
7 Drowned Rats
3 Partially Eaten Fish
1 Giant Sewer Rat

Not too bad after the insane amount of time fishing for the coins. Off to Ironforge for the 老铁腭 achievement.

Dont know how to copy the data in from the catches but boy I had a lot sewer carp thats for sure.

评论来自 820654

I was fishing for coins in the fountain and didn't know about this achievement. I received the rat but thought it was some kind of fishing booster because of the icon it had. I didn't even think twice and sold it... I realized what I did after I had sold back everything in my bags and it was too late to take it back.

for 没跑掉的鱼 and 好大的老鼠！ achievements i found my self an "easy" and less boring way to farm, i use the "wowvid" addon(is an addon that allow u to watch movies/episodes that u have downloaded on your pc in game) and turning off the music from wow so the only thing i mostly hear is my fishing pole when i catch something, also i put my fishing keybinding on one of my mouse's keybindings
my point is that (at least for me) to watch a movie/episode while fishing make my life realy easier =)
hope that helps more ppl :)

btw sorry for my english, im always bad on explaining things ^^

Can be achieved if the 巨型下水道老鼠 is found in the new 一包神秘的异域物品 (Satchel of Exotic Mysteries). You can find it on one char, mail the bag to another char and the char that actually loots it from the satchel will get the achievement.
NOTE: You must have auto-loot turned off (permanently from Interface OR temporary by pressing SHIFT by default) to take a look in the bag without looting the pet.

评论来自 Hippysocks

The 巨型下水道老鼠 also drops from 伽布的鱼桶 in new Zul Gurub strangely enough. When you loot it you get the achievement. I wonder when Gub was last in Dalaran sewers? Maybe the Rat got bored of Dalaran as nobody visits anymore. We'll never know.

Fished in the Black Market (The Underbelly-Dalaran), maybe 100 casts.

评论来自 Esploratore

I got it after about 1.900 casts, average of 200 per hour: 4,5 hours the first day and nothing, same the second day, the third day like 30 mins and I got it.

I almost always fished in cantrips & crows, at the end of the dock, and anyway I was there when I got it.

If statistics (0,2% drop rate) are correct, you can get it in 500 attempts if you have a normal luck; if you are unlucky you can go up to 2-3 times that, in my case almost 4.

To whoever is still looking for it, the only thing I can say is: "never give up", 500 attempts are the minimum if you're not particularly lucky.

I got this while fishing coins in the Dalaran fountain. At first I didn't understand how that was possible, but after fishing more coins I noticed that when you throw the bait in the edge of the fountain, you get the same loot as in the Sewers. In other words, I was pretty god damn lucky.

This is now possible to get through doing a dungeon through Call to Arms: Tank/Healer. You often get a vanity pet in your extra bag, instead of a potion or flask, along with your 50-100 gold.

Reading the previous comments while visiting Dalaran for the first time (level 60) I thought "what the heck" and did some fishing while waiting for my husband to log in. Fishing at level 375, jewelled pole (+30), so I bought the fish attractor from the vendor there (+100).
Had snorted at the idea that fishing into the green circle around the rat would make any difference...but did it anyway ;)
About 10 minutes later I got the pet and the achievement! Sounds like voodoo...but it worked for me.

I am at Cantrips & Crows and have cast about 20 times and have caught nothing.

Is that unusual? I have Fishing Skill 450. I'm using the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole. I have extra mods of +35.

So why aren't I catching ANYTHING?

评论来自 988973

Took about 35 minutes of fishing today to finally get this sucker for the first time ever (through casual fishing of course!).
Stood on the dock next to Angelo and Sebastian outside Cantrips & Crows and fished the rat up after a total of :

7 crystal vials
8 partially eaten fish
50 sewer carp
3 drowned rats

I started at 484 fishing with the jeweled fishing pole (+30 skill)
glow worm lure attachment (+100 skill),
and drank Captain Rumsey's Lager (+10 skill)

if any of that matters. Happy fishing to anyone trying! :)

While 8 months ago I was there everyday and was getting slightly irritated that everyone around me got the achievement. Anyways I'm happy now :)

Sewer Carp -- 1301
Magic Eater -- 611
Drowned Rat -- 131
Partially Eaten Fish -- 100
Crystal Vial -- 235
Giant Sewer Rat -- 1

Total -- 2379, terrible luck.

Just got mine today. I fished yesterday about 300 casts and no rat. Today i was waiting for random bg and after 70 casts i got it.

Jeweled fishing pole + hood + 75 lure = 630 fishing skill approximately.

Strangely enough, a friend of mine started fishing after me and got it too after about 50 casts.

Maybe Blizzard changed the drop rate ?

I got the rat on my 6th cast on my level 19 twink druid. Just a reminder, you don't really need a particular fishing skill to get the rat, fishing skill is now only useful in catching actual fish vs junk. right before getting the rat i managed to get my titanium seal of dalaran too.

Figured I'd share little story for your amusement-
So my work got cancelled for the rest of the night and I'm home thinking "Oh boy, 6 hours straight of WoW, I should grind something out- I know, the Dalaran sewer rat!" So I head to the sewers, plop down on my duff, and start casting.
30 minutes into it, along comes a human warrior chick and starts casting right next to me(i'm horde). Rude, but whatevs, I'll just point my casts away from where she's casting.
10 minutes later, she gets it. Are you f-ing kidding me? I wanted to kick her right in her stupid lucky face, but instead I '/clap' her, she thanks me and leaves, and I'm back on my duff...casting.
Another hour passes and all I can think about is just how I got robbed a sewer rat. 2 hours into my endevour, 180ish trash and fish in my bag, no rat...I'm done.
Maybe some other time.

Sewer Carp - 1100
Magic Eater - 477
Crystal Vial - 215
Partially Eaten Fish - 93
Drowned Rat - 91
Giant Sewer Rat - 1

Total : 1976
caught at Cantrips & Crows, end of the dock

For me, this was a creature of TIME CONSUMING DOOM. Spent ~ 8.5/9 hours straight fishing him up. I began to despair about halfway through and for a time went casting all about the Underbelly, becoming more angsty and paranoid about drop rates with each cast.

This is NOT recommended, to say the least

Sitting in one spot and hoping Lady Luck is with you seems to be your best bet. I turned my sound effects up, put on a book on tape, procured many a good snack throughout, and cast until I found this rat. I had horrid luck, unfortunately.

But for all you still fishing...stick it out! he's there somewhere. Good luck!

Now in MOP I purchased the Giant Sewer Rat on the AH. It unfortunately does NOT count toward the fishing achievement. : (

buying the pet from BMAH WILL infact give you the achievement, just as if you get it from satchel of mysteries!
just letting everyone know!
buying it from regular ah will not give the achievement, because you are buying it as a batlle pet, not a companion pet, buying it from BMAH will give the achievement when you 'loot' the mail (before you 'learn' it)

I've been farming this one for years on different characters and different servers.

I finally got it today after my boyfriend fished it out of the Dalaran fountain whilst he was trying to get 钱币大师 (he's only got 卡特拉娜·普瑞斯托的金币 to go) and I thought I would go and fish in the sewers while I waited for him to finish.

Took me about 30 mins outside of Catnips and Crows and I caught the following:

32 下水道鲤鱼
14 噬魔鱼
5 水晶瓶
4 被吃掉一部分的鱼
1 淹死的老鼠
1 巨型下水道老鼠

I still find it a little funny that I got the rat before he got his coin...

Alright comrades

Was just preparing to fishing for long hours for the ravishing of the small rats, the Big fat one, the boss "Giant Sewer Rat"

50 casts and 1 beer gone
100 cast and i was happy thinking yeah this gonna take long, better pick a cooler and watch a movie...
150 cast - Movie downloaded
178 cast - Earn by Salty Alejadox

Well, that`s some lucky...

I wish to my fellow Anglers a good Luck, the prize worth the difficulty

Drop rate shown on wowhead is ~0.3%.
So.. doing the math, overall chance of one within the next:

2mins (5 casts): 1.5% (Hell Lucky)
6mins (20 casts): 6% (Damn Lucky)
15mins (50 casts): 14% (Lucky)
30mins (100 casts): 26% (Somewhat Lucky)
1h (200 casts): 45% (Pretty Typical)
2h (400 casts): 70% (Slightly Unlucky)
5h (1000 casts): 95% (A lot unlucky)
10h (2000 casts): 99.7% (You should get checked)
15h (3000 casts): 99.9998% (Guess you're cursed)

Note: Before the kraken of downvote is unleashed, this is just a baseline informative post. Probabilities are not predictable, you could get yours on frist try or try #10000, it's all about luck.

Like many others, this started as a small side goal.. fish while in the LFD / LFR queue etc.. and much like any of the other "small" wow goals has developed into full blown "THIS WILL BE MINE".

Logged out last night with about 200 casts.. I'm now around 1000 casts straight. Can honestly say my sanity is dwindling away... good luck to those like me still chasing this Rodent!

According to wowhead, the chance of getting this item is about 1 in 3000. You can make about 30 attempts in 9 minutes, so expect to spend 900 minutes or15 hours trying to catch this rat. Off course you can be lucky. But you can also be unlucky.

评论来自 Kannte

So I am standing at cantrips & crows and i think to myself, where would I hang out if I would be a Rat?
I am looking around and see a hole in the wall with a kind of metal screen, interesting.
Just a fishing raft brought me close enough. Here is what happend.

35 Sewer Carp's
22 Magic Eater
08 Crystal Vail
04 Drowned Rat's
03 Partially Eaten Fish
01 Giant Sewer Rat

It just took 73 cast with 705 Fishing Skill and the Raft. What a day. Earlier today i catched the 15 Pound Mud Snapper in under 180 casts. Looks like this "Catching-Rare-Rare-Fish" Achievements work better on 600+ Skill Level or the raft provides a unique spot to catch rare fish.

PS: Some days ago I did the Lurker Achievement in 2 casts. (705 Fishing)
PPS: Becoming Nat Peagle's Best Friend provides you with tools to rech a fishing skill of 800.

Started it at 8 AM, fished all day long (with max skill:600 - fishing pole:30 - Sharpened Hook,Baubles,Worm,etc:100 => 730 skill), but after the 850th cast, I went for some beer to calm me down and fresh me up. Got it at 1219th cast. It was deplorable. I wish more luck for everyone!.......and don't forget the beer.

Roughly 1 in 3000 chance... Assuming that you can catch 3 fishes per minute, that's 1000 minutes of fishing non-stop, or about 16 hours and 40 minutes.

So, I know a few of you have stated that you've spent many, many hours on trying to fish up this rat, but I feel I might be on the very unfortunate side of all of this. I'm over 2600 attempts and still NO rat. I'm starting to get disheartened and feeling like it's never gonna come... Anyone have an experience this bad and held out to actually get it? If so, how long did it actually take? Because I'm so close to walking away forever on this one :/

Finally caught this in old Dalaran
After spending about 2000 casts in the black market I decided to move to the docks.

End of the dock on the left side in between the two fire totems in The Cantrips and Crows Tavern.
Total Cast: 2047
Skill: 1230 = 800 (Base Level) + 200 (Worm Supreme Bait) + 100 (Ephemeral Fishing Pole) + 80 (Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat) + 50 (Underbelly Elixir)
Sewer Carp: 1114 ---- 54.4%
Magic Eater: 514 ---- 25.1%
Crystal Vial: 198 ---- 9.7%
Drowned Rat: 110 ---- 5.4%
Partially Eaten Fish: 110 ---- 5.4%
Giant Sewer Rat: 1 ---- 0.00049%

I was really unlucky and instead of a standard ratio of ~0.02% chance I had a ~0.0005% chance.

Total Time: ~12 hours of continuous fishing

TIPS: Don't give up and just keep going at it, even if it seems like you are super unlucky, like I was.

When fishing in the Underbelly in Dalaran, you have a chance to catch 巨型下水道老鼠, which awards the achivement 好大的老鼠！.

Note that the items you fish up, with the exception of 水晶瓶, only stack to 20. However, if you fish from the pier at Cantrips and Crows, there's a fishing supplier, 安格罗·皮斯卡托, which enables you to conveniently vendor the trash if you don't have a lot of bag space.

397 No 下水道鲤鱼
177 No 噬魔鱼
82 No 水晶瓶
41 No 被吃掉一部分的鱼
39 No 淹死的老鼠
1 No 巨型下水道老鼠

In total, it took me 737 casts, using an alt with a skill level of approximately 650 to 800.

I've just caught the Giant Sewer rat, specifically in Cantrips & Crows.

I first started fishing in the Black Market, and after reading on here that other people had caught theirs in C&C and Circle of Wills respectively, I thought I'd try here.

In the Black Market: 213 casts
Sewer Carp: 127 (59%)
Magic Eater: 52 (24%)
Crystal Vial: 17 (7%)
Partially Eaten Fish: 9 (4%)
Drowned Rat: 8 (3%)

Cantrips & Crows (end of the dock): 99 casts
Sewer Carp: 59 (59%)
Magic Eater: 24 (24%)
Partially Eaten Fish: 6 (6%)
Crystal Vial: 6 (6%)
Drowned Rat: 3 (3%)
Giant Sewer Rat: 1 (1%)

I usually do about 50-100 casts at a time in a specific area when farming, caught on 99/100 in the one go at C&C. I'm not saying it's a definite, because it's been confirmed you can catch the rat from either of these three areas in the Underbelly, but it's worth mixing it up every now and then.

Now onto Old Crafty and Old Ironjaw GL

评论来自 tarcin

Some people in Blizzard Dev team have serious issues, imho they're a bunch of sadist spoiled nerds who love to waste people's time, after farming this god damn rat for days, it dropping doesn't make me feel better at all.
They could just implement a code which increases drop rate as the player farms it, (ex: give the player a temporary internal buff which increases chance for rare items to drop for 0.01 or so). But no! They HAVE to torture you, mess with your dopamine circuits :D... Losing love for this game everyday...

So ive been fishing for this for ages, over 1200 casts at this point, a female Orc runs up casts 3 times and BOOM got the rat!

Im not happy lol

Update:
It took me 3153 casts, which although im now happy and i have it, i have to say that's ridiculous!
I was fishing in Cantrips & Crows and had only cast from the left of the dock next to the vendor or left torch.
i moved to the right torch and casted close to the wall, and got the giant rat after 5 casts!

-UPDATE-

5,500K+ casts... after single handedly committing a Sewer Carp genocide and sending them into extinction I found the rat!
This makes my rat a 0.018% chance.

Fished up at Cantrips and Crows

Northrend Fishing 75+5/75 only using the Strong Fishing Pole sold by Angelo Pescatore who's standing right there on the docks. No additional lures or buffs or anything.

Additional information that definitely does NOT matter but worth mentioning for the superstitious-
I used the Draconium Fisherfriend (+6 fishing) for the first 5k casts and never got it, bought the Strong Fishing Pole (+5 fishing) and got it in about <500.

It took me roughly 45 minutes and 190 casts today at the end of the dock by Angelo (fishing supplies vendor) at Cantrips and Crows (Dalaran Underbelly). I had Master's Wildercloth Fishing Cap (level 4), Aquatic Shades, and Khaz'gorite Fisherfriend (level 5) equipped. I had an oversized bobber on to also get the Discombobberlated achievement (permanent oversized bobber toy). Once I got the permanent Oversized Bobber I applied it instead of the temporary one. I started with Northrend Fishing at level 0 and ended at level 75.

评论来自 fday

Today I finally got “lucky” – anglin’ in various places, so I guess it’s just random luck, anywhere in 达拉然下水道 (Old Dalaran).

Took about 4h and ~1000 casts; it was the 2nd or 3dt sitting around that many tries. Be patient, do something in parallel, try another day!

Got around 5g from sellloot, which is a blazing 2s per minute. Catches in particular:

Can’t say I like 下水道鲤鱼 anymore, which accounts for approx. 45.7% of all catches, around double that of 噬魔鱼 (22.3%) and 水草 (21.6%).
病鱼, 漂木, 被吃掉一部分的鱼, 破布, 淹死的老鼠, 纠结的鱼线 appear on ca. 3.6–5% of casts.
淡水蜗牛, 旧靴子, 石块 are very rare! (around 1‰)
Also got 82× 水晶瓶, which would cost 13s12c at the vendor.
Got a 可重复使用的巨型鱼漂 toy early on from 逢鱼漂咬.
And of course my favorite, 巨型下水道老鼠.

As for 2024 i can confirm that we can still fish that "Giant Rat".
It took me 3,109 casts and 24 hours spread into 4 days at Cantrips & Crows.

Best advice i can say is get "Oversized Bobber" and put a good show on the side and it will go fast.

Good luck to those who try

As of 10.2.5, you still get the achievement if you get it from the Black Market Auction House, not the regular Auction House.

After several years of attempting, I decided I was getting this achievement no matter what.

So, I sat down on the docks at Cantrips & Crows and started casting. It took several sessions of 500+ casts over the next 24 hours, but 1,965 casts later, I had my achievement.

The following was my haul for those casts:
1,000 Sewer Carp
446 Magic Eater
180 Crystal Vial
98 Drowned Rat
79 Partially Eaten Fish
42 Tangled Fishing Line
32 Tattered Cloth
31 Sickly Fish
31 Weeds
23 Driftwood
1 Water Snail
1 Old Boot
1 Giant Sewer Rat

Important to note that this pet can be purchased from the AH, but it doesn't count towards the achievement. You have to actually fish it up in order to get the achievement. I fished it up after about 2 hours 15 mins with around 500ish casts. Good luck.
