You don´t need to use the potions, they stay AROUND the lake so just hunt them around the coast. Save the potions for the quest "Umbrafen Eel Filets".

If you want a never-ending source of free water breathing potions, just accept this quest to get the potion, then abandon the quest. You'll keep the potion and can accept the quest again once the charges run out for another free 3 hours of potion. ~_O
Once completed, you can't get the potion anymore.
Umbra lake is near cenarion refuge.
Coords: 78.66 (is very big lake) and the hydras are at the margins of the lake. In any case you don`t need to enter in water. Try move around the cenarion coast(east one), the nagas coast ...is hard because is imposible to don`t agro.

What to do
Description
On my last hunting trip, I caught sight of a new outpost being built by a group of trolls. No doubt they've begun hunting these lands, too. If they establish a permanent presence out here, the competition for food will be fierce. We cannot take direct action against them without provocation, but we can remove some of the natural competition for food. For each mire hydra you kill, that's three fewer mouths to feed!
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.
- Messenger to the Feralfen
The time has come for us to embrace the Feralfen and teach them that the Light has not forsaken them. Take the potion I've prepared and carry it with you to the Boha'mu Ruins. Once you arrive at the ruins, drink the potion to assume the form of one of their bird spirits.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Diaphanous Wings
Living in such a remote location has taught us to make use of everything available. Of course, you have to learn to stop thinking about where some of these materials come from first. I've found that the wings of the umbraglow stingers are very helpful for waterproofing.
