Old Man Barlo's Daily Fishing Quest

Recently Latura has been trying to get a "Jewel Encrusted Fishing Rod" which can be obtained through the "Marcia Chase" fishing daily quest located by the fountain in "Dalaran City". Latura today discovered another daily fishing quest located in Terokkar forest (the same area where Mr. Pinchy is supposed to roam), which is given by a NPC called "Old Man Barlo".

"Old Man Barlo" is located on "Silmyl Lake" and is fishing on the south east shore which is the side of the lake closest to "Shattrath City". On this occasion he gave Latura the quest "Bait Bandits"

"Bait bandits" is a quest where you has to find a "Blackfin Darter" fish, the quest giver "Old Man Barlo" tells you that you wont catch one in the lakes as the fish need fast flowing water so instead fish for this in rivers close to Shattrath City.

Latura found the closest river which was in a MOB area called "Tuurem" however she found a safe spot and after 4 fishing attempts (this does not need to be in Fishing Pools) she caught the elusive "Blackfin Darter".
The co-ordinates for the location for which she found this fish was 53.06 27.93.

Latura returned to "Old Man Barlo" and gave him the "Blackfin Darter" fish. As a reward he gave her a "Bag of fishing treasures". This bag contained three things:


  1. Elixir of water walking x2
  2. Giant Sharks Tooth
  3. 7gold, 38 silver and 29 copper.

Latura was disappointed that she still had not received the elusive "Jewel Encrusted Fishing Rod" but hope was not lost there is always tomorrow!
