As a note, Monstrous Clams are found just off the dock at Bladefist Bay, outside of Orgrimmar. They are not fished-up. Each clam has one or two Monstrous Clam Meats.
Upon accepting the quest you are given a buff called Water Gliding that increases your swim speed and grants you underwater breathing for fifteen minutes, so there's no need to blow your gold on underwater breathing potions or swim speed potions.
Anyone else notice sometimes when u open a clam that there's a baby murloc there and he just disappears after a couple seconds?

Description
Nothing tastes like fresh monstrous clam meat, {name}. I have been so busy with work these past few weeks that I have not been able to make it out to the local clam spawning grounds. Think you could run down there and gather some of those tasty treats for me? The clams can be found near the shoreline on the eastern coast of Durotar. Should be plenty right around the Orgrimmar docks.
