*The title of the quest is a reference to the 1980's movie "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_(film) UHF]". In this movie, a peculiar game show named ''Wheel of Fish'' (which is a spoof of Bob Barker's ''Wheel of Fortune'') is hosted by a former karate master. As a contestant wins a red snapper from a spin of the Wheel, the host expresses his enthusiasm. The snapper is subsequently wagered on a mystery box, which is empty.

Red Snapper - Very Tasty! is an Alliance-only quest in the draenei starting zone Azuremyst Isle. Players must collect [Red Snappers] using a net in order to help feed the draenei refugees in nearby Azure Watch.

How to Get This Quest

Diktynna is on the beach of Ammen Ford - if you are taking the road from Ammen Vale to Azure Watch, you can't miss her.

Objectives

Use the [Draenei Fishing Net] to catch 10 [Red Snappers]. Return both the fish and the net to Diktynna on Azuremyst Isle when the task is complete.

Requires:

Details

Once you start the quest, take your [Draenei Fishing Net] to the river. Look for Schools of Red Snapper. Walk/swim up to the school and right click the net to collect [Red Snappers]. Occasionally a Murloc will spawn where you use the net - if you kill it, it will drop a snapper.

Description

I've found that these waters are bustling with red snapper, a very tasty fish. With a fishing net, I can catch enough to feed dozens of draenei! Unfortunately, I was recently attacked by a creature known as a murloc while netting in the river and have suffered some injuries that prevent me from doing my job. I need help!

Use this fishing net near schools of red snapper, found in the Crystalbrook river to the east to catch the fish.

What do you say? Remember to return the net when you are finished.

Rewards

You will receive:

Progress

Watch out for murlocs: Strange and extremely annoying little creatures.

Completion

I hope the murlocs didn't cause too much trouble, <name>. I owe you a great debt of gratitude for all that you've done.

Perhaps I could teach you how to fish? I'll even supply the fishing pole and a bauble.
