'''Strong Fishing Pole''' is one of two low-level upgrades to the {{item|Fishing Pole}}, and is the only one available to the Horde. Human, Dwarf, and Gnome characters who want a fishing pole with a low bonus to fishing skill may want to buy the Strong Fishing Pole rather than wait until they can get to Darkshore for the {{questlong|alliance|14|The Family and the Fishing Pole|id=1141}} quest that awards the +3 {{item|Blump Family Fishing Pole}}.
  
   
  +
==Guidelines==
−
Before purchasing, consider that the basic Fishing Pole is disposable and replaceable when your bags get full, and you can buy 20 {{item|Shiny Bauble}} lures for the same money as the Strong Fishing Pole. They grant +25 fishing skill lasting 10 minutes each, 200 minutes total. In addition, the [[Fishing lure|lures]] can be purchased as you need them, rather than all at once.

;Adding questions: ''There is no stupid question.''
  +
*When you add a question, first make sure it has not already been placed on this page. If you have verified it is not here, the next step would be to find it's appropriate category (ie a character, location, race, etc) and add it using the standard format. See [[#Question format|question format]] below.
  +
*As this is a collection of commonly asked questions by the Warcraft community, it is ok to add questions you've seen on the official World of Warcraft forums along with any other fan sites. However, do not transfer any ratings or votes currently held by them.
  +
*Avoid posting questions in which the developers would have no control over, such as how players treat each other and things that exist for pure game mechanics (ie Worgen Death Knights).
   
−
Since the changes to [[Fishing]] in [[3.1]], skill only affects whether you catch a fish or junk, and you will skill up either way; plus, the level requirements have been removed, so fishing bonuses have lost much of their value.

;Removing questions: ''Questions should never be removed without a reason.''

*Should you see a question that can easily be answered by in-game lore or external sources (RPG books, WorldofWarcraft.com), go ahead and move the question to the [[Talk:CDev questions|talk page]], give the answer, and provide the source you obtained the information from. You should also note in the edit summary that you're moving the question to the talk page, so as to not have the asker (or other users) think you simply removed it.
