# 🎣 FishingBuddy for OctoWow
**OctoWoW addon** — the all-in-one fishing companion for classic WoW.
A fork of the original *FishingBuddy* (TackleBox + Impp's Fishing Info + outfit manager, all rolled into one), updated and patched to fix in-game bugs on OctoWoW.

## ✨ Features

- 🐟 **Fish Watcher** — see every fish you've caught before, or just this session.
- 📊 Live display of your **skill level** and **time spent fishing**.
- 👕 **Outfit Manager** — pick a fishing outfit and swap into it in one click.
- 🪱 Auto-apply a **lure** to your fishing pole.
- 🪧 Full **Titan Panel** support.
- 🔌 **myAddOns** support.
- 🔁 Preliminary tracking for **cycle fish** (e.g. Nightfin Snapper) so you know when to hunt them.
- 🎩 Bonus: displays your "style points" based on Draznar's Fishing FAQ, just for fun.
