Oke i currently have Alch and Herb
but since i never have enough money (read: since i want to twink out lvling alts, buy mounts+skills, buy offspec gear)
i am thinking of dropping Alch and pick up Mining again (i can handle switching of tracking, have done that alot before)
my question is: is it smart to switch
it is for my Holy Paladin (gonna be Holy Retri when 3.1 hits live)
alch doesnt make alot of money since elixirs dont sell on my server, elixir master almost never proccs on flasks, transmutes make only a little profit with a huge risk if u are even gonna make profit (even when transmute master)
altough alch gives Mixology wich seems quit nice but is it worth it? i doubt it
i hope u guys can help me out

thanks again for the responses
i am trans master too now but the mats for the meta's are around 5g cheaper than what the gems sell for: 25g...if they sell...(most off the time only 5 are bought in 24 hours on my server and its kinda stressfull to see 10 of your gems in the mail unsold, that means around 10g AH post cost trowns away, while i only make 5g profit a gem...)
and the master thingy doesnt procc alot around once or twice if i make 20 of them and they never procc more than 1 bonus gem sometimes 2 but thats it

the big money in those two proffesion lies in the raw mats. I Guess we are talking about northrend herb/alchemy. If so i suggest you sell the herbs directly on the market instead of elixirs. The alchemy is a great proffesion if you raid bcs you will only have to use a flask per night, so greatly reduces cost and you can control all flask and potions you make yourself, so it cuts down the cost.
Icethorns, lichbloom, adders tongue and the flower who only grows in zuldrak. Is a killer in my server, perhaps the economic is different on your server, but follow my tip.

When 3.1 hits, and more people head into Ulduar, I think flask prices will go up. At least, I hope they do. I have Alch/Herb on my druid, and I'm going to stick with it until at least a few weeks into Patch.
As it is now, pretty much all my flasks, potions, herbs, etc. are priced pretty low on the AH and sometimes still don't sell. Mining isn't much better.
