Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole

Got the Kalu'ak Fishing Pole today because I became Exalted with Kalu'ak.

This little puppy does 186+ damage per second(DPS).

Thoughts

The only real problem here seems to be the drop in attach power. My current weapon the Shark Fin Blade has a +134 attack power. This is what is dropping my ranged weapon DPS. The slower speed may be contributing to the greater critical strike chance.

What do do about the drop in attack power?

The WOW Insider has a nice article about on Rookie Weapon Mastery.

It looks like there are two things that I can do a weapon. One is a permanent enchant, but yout cannot do that with a fish pole :-( The second is temporary. Can I do this with a fishing pole?
