  One also needs to check for "achievement_profession_fishing_journeymanfisher", the bone pole.

  if ( itemTexture and ( string.find(itemTexture, "inv_fishingpole") or string.find(itemTexture, "journeymanfisher") ) ) then

  If we go beyond two strings, I recommend a table scan.

  I've just emailed Sutorix about how to fix the new poles not being recognised. To make it clear, this is not an issue with fishing buddy as such but an issue from Blizzard; they decided to change how items are named.

  FishingBuddy checks to see if you have a fishing pole in your main hand by looking to see if the texture has "INV_Fishingpole" within the items texture name. With 3.1 however, the texture names on the current poles is "inv_fishingpole" and unfortunately LUA can't do non-case sensitive string searches.

  To fix this (for advanced users ONLY) open the LibFishing-1.0.lua and find line 170 - BELOW line 170 ADD:

  itemTexture = itemTexture:lower();

  At line 174 (previously 173 before the above change) REPLACE WITH

  if ( itemTexture and string.find(itemTexture, "inv_fishingpole") ) then

  - the case is important.

  Reload your UI and you're done.
