TheWoWDBFINALLY! Blizzard gives us an Alliance equivalent to the Fishing Pole that the Horde has had for about 5 years. It's useless now, but at least they tried...

As of Patch 6.1 there is no pre-requisite to this quest. As long as your level is high enough, you can drop by and pick it up. I did it at level 50, although it was a low-level quest by then.
Just an additional note. When you find the path down to the coast, don't follow it all the way down as it ends close to Ravantusk Village which is a horde area where the guards can sense you even in stealth as they did my rogue. There is a side path on the way down at around 72.6, 66.2 that will take you safely down. Also a good area to fish for firefin.

Nat Pagle's Extreme Angler FC-5000, 10g 50s, 4,100 XPDescription
I've got plans to brew up somethin' special for those pesky trolls. Aye, I said for them... a brew they won't ever forget! A brew that'll have them pickin' their tusks out of the hillsides! I've got a few ingredients steepin' already, but I could use a hand gatherin' more. At the bottom of the Overlook Cliffs to the east, near the shore, is a whole mess o' snapjaws. I need fresh, whole gizzards from them for my blastbrew.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gan'dranda
As fun as it is to butt heads with these trolls, we've got other things to do down here. It'd be nice to get this battle over with, aye? Their commander, Gan'dranda, sits in the ruined walls to the southeast of the battlefield.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- 99 Bottles of Booze on the Beach
Now, I know we've got a little battle ragin' and all that, but down at the overlook cliffs are some nice lookin' bottles strewn all over the place. I don't want good drink to fall into the hands o' the Horde! If you're down that way, collect the bottles for me and bring 'em back here.
