Nah, the new fishing dailies seem pretty crappy in terms of rewards.

Hat and crab here, too. Although I have to admit I was WAAAY too excited about the strand crawler. I totally didn't realize that pet existed and I was IN LOVE with this little lava crab I used to /wave at on the way to MC/BWL from Kargath ...

I don't remember if they added things to those other dailies after they were released or not, but only having 2 shinies in the bag of shinies seems a little silly to me.

Yep, I got the crab in Wrath myself too! I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't a new pet with the new fishing dailies, just a carried over old one.

I still have to get to Exalted with Kalu'ak to get there fishing pole. One of these days I will get it..

We never know they may add something later on only time will tell.

Indeed! The crabs were added later to Dalaran, as I recall.

Oh yeah I forgot that the crab came in later around Ulduar if I remmber rightly.

I think it was just further incentive for another time sink from Blizzard. But. I wouldn't complain if the bags started dropping crabs of another color -and or- Muddy Crawfish.

wtb black and blue 'crawfish' blizz.

I love those kinda time sinks. For some reason grinding towards an inevitable result gets boring very quickly for me ... but if there's a .02% chance of something happening I'm all "oh heck yeah must do that EVERY DAY!!"

at least the SW ones give you 1 or 2 Fishing skill points. thats nice for me i guess...

problem is they are not going to add epic gems or other fancyness because those daily fishing quests are doable at lowbie levels.

My vote is for a Snail pet!

Royi they could do like a heirlom deal and make like a fish pole that upgrades to your fishing level.

The higher the skill level, the more Salty you appear!~

I think there are 2 reasons for the Orgrimmar / Stormwind fishing dailies:

1) Low level characters can do these dailies. Unlike Outlands and Northrend, a Level 10 character can reasonably do these quests without high level help, and it gives newbies daily quests to do.
2) Part of the reward for doing the dailies is +1 or +2 to fishing skill. While that doesn't mean much at lower levels, it's pretty nice when you're over 400 skill and it takes 10 to 15 casts to gain a skill up.

Don't forget they are fast and easy, good for reputation even at high levels.

After you get exalted with one there is a bit of spill over iirc with the rest (aka +X to alliance standings)

Plus it's really a good start on the daily quest achievements, since otherwise you have to hit 70 before you get any real useful daily quests.
