He's your friend!
FishermansFriend   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
FishermansFriend is a fishing helper addon inspired by FishingAce and improved upon.

FishermansFriend does the following when you equip a fishing rod:
- Enhance Sounds so you can hear the fishing bobber better, and ofcourse restore your original settings when you remove the rod.
- Add doublerightclick autocasting.
- When attempting to doublerightclick autocast FishermansFriend can also use the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat or automatically apply your best lure.
- Automatically turn on Auto-Looting items when you have a fishing rod equipped.

FishermansFriend uses the itemids for lures etc, and should work on every language client even though the configuration might not be translated in your language yet.

You can open the options panel by /fmf or /fishermansfriend or via Esc -> Interface Options -> AddOns.

Enjoy.

Lua line?

I would like to see this updated for 3.1. I hope you have time to do this, for I really like this addon.

I do see where you have said to just add a lua?

I, unfortunately, have no idea what you are talking about. What is a lua? And how do you add it.

I hope you can keep it real simple because I don't know squat about programing.

Thanks, Fullerton

With the advent of 3.1 there is yet another new pole "Nat's Lucky Fishing Pole". Add the following to the LUA file and it works fine with it.

[45858] = true, -- Nat's Lucky Fishing Pole

There's a fixed version available from curse.com at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...ns-friend.aspx

Not sure if Ammo is still around to update it here though.

Re: FishermansFriend vs FishingAce

I love FF and use it extensively (at least once a day for the quest . I tried it on the PTR beta and it didn't work (didn't seem to register at all). I hope you can get it updated for WOTLK.

FishermansFriend fixes a few issues with resetting the doublerightclick hook compared to FishingAce. It has the ability to use the weather-beaten fishinghat. In general it's a cleaned up version of FishingAce. It's smaller codewise and a tiny bit more efficient, not that that matters while fishing If FishingAce does all you need then I suggest you keep using it.

Ah, I just looked up FishingAce! This is pretty nice if you don't need the tracking and such (less memory usage is always good)!

I think you should do the options load-on-demand.
