Anything new for fishermen?

I haven't followed the news as to whether there's new stuff for fishermen in Cata zones aside from a whole new variety of fishes; any new cool rare pets, toys or mounts?

I hope so- though I haven't seen anything yet. Fishing seems kind of lack-luster in this expac- with the daily giving skill-up bonuses, it's going to be much less tedious to level, but there doesn't seem to be much incentive for people to level it beyond collecting cooking mats. The rewards from the daily fishing bag are trash- not even worth gold this time around. The Dalaran and Shatt Fishing dailies used to be some of my favorites, because of all the fun and interesting possible rewards. Now, I'm not even sure why they give us a bag at all.

Not complete trash, I've gotten the weather beaten fishing hat and the strand Crawler out of the Bag of Shineies on my Shaman. Maybe not new stuff, but some of the old fun stuff is definitely available by doing the Org Daily.

I was really hoping for another fishing daily for max level players in say.. Twilight Highlands or something like that. It's sure disappointing that the capital city dailies are the only new thing fishermen get so far. (besides the new fish for cooking anyway)

I'm glad the old blues are still available for new players. I guess how I should have phrased it, is that there isn't anything NEW for people who have been fishing for a while. I have all of my crocolisk pets, my crab, my hat, my vanity fishing poles from the last expac. I have fished my way to Mr. Pinchy, a giant rat and a Turtle mount. This expac- there's nothing new. No pets, no mounts, no new vanity items- nothing.
Even without the vanity stuff, the bags from last expac were much more interesting. The greys might be worth some gold, it had a chance to drop epic gems, and some of the greys, like the pimp hat and the romance novel- were actually worth hanging onto. Oh, and the constant supply of water-walking potions was awesome. now- There are no drops worth anything over 2 silver, other than the occasional marginally useful potion, and the greys are boring.
I would just like something new to grind for.
