Hal Sudsworth
Stranglethorn Vale
A hot, dangerous jungle at the southern tip of the Eastern Kingdoms, full of crumbling ruins from the old Gurubashi troll empire. Jungle trolls, goblin mining camps, the renegade Kurzen expedition and the Gurubashi Arena all share the vale, with Zul'Gurub in the northeast. The pirate town of Booty Bay sits on the southern coast, the Bloodsail Buccaneers camp along the shore, naga hunt the coastline, and islands such as Jaguero Isle and Yojamba Isle lie offshore.
Hal on Stranglethorn Vale
Older trunks in the north, better trunks in the south, Greater Sagefish in the rivers. The raptors on the south coast won't follow you into the water, so swim. On Sundays at two, forty people line the shore for Tastyfish. Old Man Heming sells the Expert book. Buy it.

Catch rates by hour, pool locations and the zone clear board for Stranglethorn Vale appear here once people paste journals. Nobody can yet; the addon learns to write down when and where in the next version.
