Once cooked (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=21217), it's a very nice buff for Priests/Druids/Shaman and to a lesser extent Mages and Warlocks.

Please post if you know which Horde cooking trainer sells this recipe, and also where specifically to fish for the raw fish. Thanks.

Comment by Thottbot

The trainer in UC sells these recipes

Comment by Thottbot

can be bought at the cooking shop in ogrimmar for 50s

Comment by Thottbot

Anyone with specific fishing spots yet? =)

Comment by Thottbot

Found them on east coast of Lordamere Lake.

Comment by Thottbot

i found them inside STV. took me hours, but i got there. lol. good luck guys

Comment by Thottbot

Are they only in inland water sources(lakes, streams, rivers, etc)? Or has anyone found them on the coast?

Comment by Thottbot

Is there any good price for these, I mean are they worth picking up? Since I am fishing oilys and firefins, i might as well take these too. I found greater sagefishes in STV, north... 3 schools, and 12 of these.

Comment by Thottbot

Theres a vendor in Southshore too, the trade goods guy. As for finding the greater sagefish, haven't found any yet, only normal Sagefish.

Comment by Thottbot

Found a school in river close to Nessingwary? in STV.

Comment by Thottbot

I found that you could fish the regular Sagefish in any watery area of Ashenvale.

I also found a lot of regular Sagefish spots dotted up the river that is just east of Southshore in Hillsbrad.

There is around 5-8 Greater Sagefish spawn spots in the Lake Nezeriti (or something) in Stranglethorn Vale. I've fished around 100 or so there today, the spawn spots reappear pretty good if you're there questing aswell. I would guess it'd take longer for the spots to come back if you're just there to farm the fish.

Comment by Thottbot

Just seen three schools in the river right above Nessinwary's Expedition

Comment by Thottbot

Fished two schools right out in front of Nancy's cabin on Lake Lordamere while doing the Vorrel's Revenge quest.

Comment by Thottbot

There are not any in the Lake. They are only Sagefish Schools. Greater Sagefish only exist in STV as of this date.

Comment by Thottbot

Greater Sagefish can be fished from the western side of Alterac Mountains now. The simplest way to get to the right spot (for Horde, anyway) is to fly to Silverpine and go east across the lake. There are several Greater Sagefish nodes on the shore next to Dalaran (the big pink dome), and further north along the Misty Shore and that whole area.

There are hostile mobs in the buildings in this area, including one 33 elite in a house, so watch out for that. But for the most part, it's just passive turtles. Certainly safer than anywhere in STV, and less chance of getting ganked if you're on a PvP server.

I went up and down this coastline just once, fishing all the nodes until they were empty, and came back with a stack of Greater Sagefish, as well as some cloth and leather from the Floating Wreckage nodes. Nice spot.

Comment by Thottbot

There is several schools on Misty Shore. Need about 135 fishing, but without a bauble you'll need to skill up a little.

As for the guy $%^&*ing about locs in STV, how about you read the posts above you. Nessinwary's is right on a river. There are many schools of fish on the river that run through STV. Just follow the water man.

Comment by Thottbot

can greater sagefish be fished from 'sagefish schools' or must you specifically find agreater sagefish school?

if not, then theres at least 10 sageish schools up and down the river in hillsbrad.

Comment by Thottbot

Did about 45 minutes fishing in Lordamere Lake on the Misty Shore trying to get to lvl 150 on my fishing skills. I only fished in the schools of Raw Greater Sagefish.This is what I caught:

4 Iron bound trunks (nothing much inside - a few weak potions and some various pieces of cloth)
14 Raw Bristle Whiskere Catfish
16 Raw Mithril Head Trout
6 Stranglekelp
23 Raw Greater Sagefish

That's a drop rate of about 36%.

happy fishing.

Comment by Thottbot

30 Raw Greater Sagefish (75%)
8 Stranglekelp (20%)
2 Iron Bound Trunk (5%)

In STV, Greater Sagefish Schools

The above poster might not have landed all of the casts inside the actual school.

Comment by Thottbot

If you're low, sure, alterac is the best, but if you're 50-60 go fish in stv. start at the top and work your way down both sides of the river next to grom gol.

aside from that, here's the best way to locate pools- swim underwater. you can miss pools from the top, but you can clearly see them from below. try it.

Comment by Thottbot

I took the advice of a few of the above posters and ran along Lordamere Lake in Alterac. Found about 12 schools and fished this out of them in approximately an hour.

69 Greater Sagefish
5 Rumsey Rum
5 trunks (all with either/or heavy leather, healing/mana potions, silk and money in them)
7 stranglekelp
Added 24 points to my fishing skill (136-160)

The only mobs around were in fact the turtles, but like one of the posters said, be careful around a house out there or those elites will eat you for dinner (if you're a level 30 like me anyway).

Comment by Allakhazam

Anyone found where this is either bought or dropped off of which mob.

Comment by Allakhazam

I searched all of the rivers in Strangle Vale looking for Greater Sagefish but only found (regular) Sagefish. So much for the easy way - LOL.

Comment by Allakhazam

When you are at the correct area for the fish, you can see the areas they are swiming by finding a small school of fish or a blue sheen on the water. When you mouse over the area it will say it's Greater Sagefish.

The only problem after that is casting into the school.

Comment by lehearts

Note: For some reason the Wowhead BfA link for Greater Sagefish keeps linking to the Wowhead Classic Greater Sagefish webpage. So make sure you're at the correct webpage for Greater Sagefish. Wow Bfa has Greater Sagefish at Western and Eastern Plaguelands but not Stranglethorn/Alterac.

Comment by Rocky52

As at Sept 2020 at least, the fish in Northern Stranglethorn are Sagefish not Greater Sagefish. Flew all the way from Wetlands to discover this.
