I guess I'm in the minority, definitely among my guildies, in that I enjoy fishing. I've leveled one to 450 and am well on the way to another. I can't think of many things I would change.

During the runup to WotLK, wasn't there talk about different fishing floats? That would be a good thing, maybe each different float would attract a special kind of fish, Wisp Dragonfly for spell casters, Grubworm for melee, Hard Cased Beetle for tanks, etc etc.

I'd also like something a little more noticeable when the fish bites. Playing while watching the tube is a relaxing way to level, but w/o sound it's hard to know when to click the float. Like furry said above, maybe a full screen flash, settable in the interface controls.

Also, a cool addition would be a hat w/ sunglasses head armor that increased fishing like the Lucky Hat, but also reduced the glare from the water.

Anything but a mini game. I'd stop being the source of my guilds Fish Feasts if they did that.

I agree on the comment of reducing glare. It's quite annoying to be facing in the one direction and not be able to determine if you're near enough to the node or not.
