Fishing as a stat

I want to be able to reforge weapons to make them usable as fishing poles. Or the reverse. Let's say 40% weapon DPS changes to fishing, though still usable for combat. On the reverse, a fishing pole can be reforged, gaining DPS (though not the inverse of 40%, since that would end up overpowered) and will no longer be usable as a fishing pole. But it looks like a fishing pole and is perfectly suitable for beating people to death.

After all, who doesn't want to use non-fishing pole items as fishing poles? Even the goblins get to use dynamite.

  1. Dynamite makes sense. A polearm might make sense. An axe does not! :D

  2. "a fishing pole can be reforged, gaining DPS"

    Have you seen the dps on the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole? I beat the tar out of a hunter who tried to Pearl Harbor me at a Wintergrasp fishing spot once. That thing's a monster without reforging!

  3. Blizzard should replace mastery stats with fishing stats. Sure it's a grind, but there's also no way to boost somebody else's fishing skill. A good fisher ought to do more damage than anybody else. And let the skill decline unless used. That would get people out of Dalaran.
