Technical The Sea Turtle

[Dnorkpod]

Hi. I'm a 79 lvl rogue and totally don't wanna go to lvl 80. I started fishing for that turtle like 10 months ago. In the end of a month worth of fishing I've decided the drop is broken (like shattered necklace for alliance) but well I could live without that. And about a month ago, some guildie tells me he got that randomly. Moreover, he did fish the second turtle in like 2 days? So, with total count of 38k fish caught and doing rough maths, I've caught 25-30k trying to fish it. The question is: can one fish that turtle while not being lvl 80? I was pondering on that question and comments on Wowhead told me that I could catch it regardless of the level. Still, I can't believe I'm just THAT unlucky...

Given that the chance is 0.01%, there is nothing wrong with having caught 25-30k without having seen it.
