Tip of the Day: LotRO Fishing

Filed under: Lord of the Rings Online, Tip of the Day

Looking to become a master angler in Lord of the Rings Online? Maybe you'd like a helping hand?


The Book 13 patch to Lord of the Rings Online added a large amount of new content. A whole new area known as Forochel was the most obvious, but the first of a series of 'hobby' professions has been a boon to players as well. Fishing is that first hobby, and if you're looking to get your line wet you're going to need to know where to go. There are Hobby Masters spread throughout Middle-earth, one in each of the racial starting areas. Hobbitses should seek out Estmar Bolger at the Bird and Baby Inn while fancy-lad elves should look to Haldor in the Last Homely House in Rivendell. Humans of Bree-land should seek out Hobby Master Henry Oakshott at the Scholar's Stair Archives, and dwarves can learn the trade from Refkell of Thorin's Hall.

For full details on learning, skilling up, and mastering the fishing hobby, check out Ten Ton hammer's complete guide to LotRO fishing. Good casting!
