TheWoWDBQuest is garbage. The entire river is phased so as soon as you step into the water to kill the Jacunda they phase out. Found 2 fish that wouldn't phase at the mouth of the river. I'm not sure what quest or event I need to complete to get the area to stop phasing but this is ridiculous blizzard.

Had the same problem. It was the Warpack questline that was phasing it. Once I finished it I was able to kill the fish without any issues.

Description
De extra riverbud you planted has helped, but it has not been enough. Some of de local beasts are consuming de riverbud before dey can mature. We need dese plants to germinate, or we could risk losing it entirely. The largest group of young riverbud consumers are de jacunda. If we are going to give de riverbud a chance to survive dis, you will need to thin their numbers. Do dat and I will teach you everything I know about riverbud.
