Leveling fishing is one of the simplest things to do on World of Warcraft.  All you need is any pool of water in the game, and leveling fishing is as simple as having a fishing pole.  I suggest you start leveling fishing in any of the capital cities that have bodies of water.  This is because all bodies of water have a minimum “no junk” fishing level.  This means in order to get progress in leveling fishing in a given body of water, you have to be at least a certain level of fishing in order to not catch any junk.  A guide to the “no-junk” fishing levels is included further down in this fishing leveling guide.

Here’s my quick 1-450 fishing leveling guide to take you there in no time.

Fishing Leveling Guide: Levels 1-50

• Visit the fishing trainer to learn Apprentice fishing.
• You get one level for every fish you land, so just equip your fishing pole, stand near a body of water, and start fishing.  Right click your bobber when you see a splash to reel your fish in.
• When you reach fishing level 50, go back to the trainer and learn Journeyman Fishing.

Leveling cooking is simple to do if you haven’t already done so while you were leveling your character.  Cooking is a secondary profession, which means you won’t have to give up one of your other professions to learn it.  There are plenty of reasons to power-level cooking later on.  Of course it means you’ll always have access to food if you’ve got the supplies to make it, but the more important reason to level cooking is the buffs you get from it, like increased stamina, agility, mana regeneration, or a whole host of other helpful ones.

Check out this simple 1-450 cooking leveling guide to find out how to get there quickly.
