"Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Stupid, you're so stupid!" lol love that movie
The Red Snapper became famous amongst WoW-players when it played a big role in the Blizzard/X-Fire machinima contest finalist 'Red Snappah!' by Oxhorn of Silver Hand. It can be found on any major WoW moviesite or on Youtube.

Fishing Pole, Shiny Bauble, 4,100 XPDescription
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Word from Azure Watch
<class>! A couple mutated beasts jumped me and my leg is injured. I was sent on a scouting mission from Azure Watch after we received word from Zhanaa. Please, could you go speak with Caregiver Chellan in my stead? She needs to know how many people to expect in Azure Watch.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Find Acteon!
You did a wonderful job, <name>. Our people will be thankful for this bounty. With that said, would you mind taking this haul of red snapper to Acteon at Azure Watch? He shouldn't be hard to find as he is awaiting this catch.
