The One That Got Away (Alliance)

The One That Got Away is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-30 in Howling Fjord. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

The barbfish you brought should work well as bait for most fish, but I fear it'll attract a monster!

When I first arrived, I put some of Nat Pagle's favorite bait on my hook and cast it into the water. A huge monster latched on, with giant teeth and icicles hanging from its fins!

Would've pulled me into those icy waters if I hadn't cut the line! I can't use the new bait until ol' Frostfin's been dealt with. Use this bait near the sunken boat in the middle of the lake. He won't be able to resist!
