Recipes
learnyellowgreengreyThe skill where each recipe can be learned, then turns yellow, green and grey. Orange recipes always give a point. A trainer's skill requirement isn't in the game files, so the learn number shows only for recipes an item teaches, and with your skill set the list assumes a trainer recipe can be learned 25 points before it turns yellow, as 9 in 10 item-taught fishing recipes can.

Partly The fishing derby runs Sundays at 2 PM on the Stranglethorn coast: catch 40 fish and turn them in, and only the first 50 players win. Winners get the Master Angler title for one week and a prize token for the derby shop.
The files Holiday 301 'Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza': Sunday 14:00, 2 h; its description says 'catches forty fish first'. The title 'Master Angler %s' (CharTitles 1313) comes from the aura 'Master Angler!' 1299323 ('this week's ... Extravaganza'), which lasts 561,600,000 ms (156 h = 6.5 days). The derby token is 'Extravagant Extravaganza Coin' 274026 (ItemExtendedCost 11642 = 1 coin). 'First 50 players' is server-side.

Partly Reworked STV fishing derby rewards (Sundays 2-4 PM server time, first 50 turn-ins win): every winner gets the Arcanite Fishing Rod plus one prize coin (heard as 'Extravagant Extravaganza Coin') for Jang's new shop. The shop sells the Hook of the Master Angler trinket, water-walking boots, a fishing hat, a bucket hat transmog and a pet, so about 5 wins buy everything.
The files Extravagant Extravaganza Coin 274026: 'Awarded to the winners of the Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza. Exchange for a prize of your choosing from Jang.' The shop block 276272-276280 holds Master Angler's Fishing Hat, Empty Fish Bucket (off-hand), Surfer Shoes (Water Walking), the Bitter Baitling pet and coin sacks; ItemExtendedCost 11642 = 1 coin. Hook of the Master Angler 19979 exists. The schedule, the 50-winner cap and the guaranteed rod are server-side.

Not in the files Fishing for a full hour with the Fishing Rack buff (Booty Bay, open water) gave no noticeable change in catches.
The files Catch rates are server-side. For context, Fishing Rack 1307247 'grants the ability to catch uncommon fish for 1 hour, provides Fishing Skill lures, and provides all of the benefits of a Fish Bowl'.

Not in the files New-zone fishing: Zephras Isle (1-10) has no pools, only open-water fishing with ordinary low-level fish. The Riverglades (about level 40) fishes like Stranglethorn, including Mithril Bound Trunks with STV-level loot.
The files Fishing loot tables and pools are server-side.

In Blizzard's notes
- Not in the files
Arcane Concentration: The chance for the talent to be triggered by a spellcast is now reduced when a Mage casts spells of a significantly lower rank. This adjustment is due to the abuse of this talent by gold farmers to “fish” for procs with low mana cost low rank spells in the past. We have applied this same type of reduction to multiple talents across many classes, but this was the best place for us to explain why. Players should expect any similar talents that trigger a free effect to have the same penalty applied to low rank spells.
The files The low-rank penalty is a server rule. The talent's second effect changed from a class-script aura (112) in Classic to a server-script dummy in 70291, and the 2-10% chance on the tooltip matches Classic (spell 11213).
