At low level <25 it can pay to catch certain fish and sell them at AH.
When you get above lvl 25 it's possible to find other ways to earn more
money at the same time.
I also figured out that at a low cooking lvl one can buy the first fish
recepie, and so far I've managed to get both my fishing and cooking
skills up to 150 within 2 hours.
It's the easiest way to make money, if one know which fish can be used
for popular recepies. It is however pretty funny that some of the fish
are sold for more than the product it's used for.

I've caught potions, boxes, bottles (with letters or recepies), lock
boxes, crates and even boots.
I've also learned that fishing in the ocean is more likely to let you
catch items, than fishing in lakes and rivers.

It won't surprise me if we have to wait till the expansion comes out :-/
One thing is for sure, fishing are practically only good for Hunters and
Alchemists, so it could really use a lotta improvements.
