I have no idea who is concerned about this matters , I honestly dont even care, just fix the damn drop rate peeps of Blizzard. I have been grinding the Dark Herring rare fish since last summer and its the only thing i have left for claiming my salty title. Talked more than once to Gms in-game and none couldn't help with this issue. Make it drop or charge me the achievement done via mailbox i don't care. This is rly anoyying and idiotic.

This would imply the drop rate is broken. It isn't, but you basically have a very very very small chance of getting it each time you fish in a location where it can drop. The chance is non-cumulative, meaning in time, the percentage chances of catching it are not increased. Each cast has the same low chance of getting it. :P

I have two, though.

It's not intended to be mockery, and it certainly isn't trolling. It is an indication that the item drop rate is working fine, though.
