Quest: Bait Bandits from Old Man Barlo, near Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest. This is one of several possible daily fishing quests from Old Man Barlo. The fish can only be caught with this quest. The quest instructions also state: "You have to pull your line at the last possible second, because they nibble at the bait before they take it." As far as I can tell, when you reel in makes no difference to whether you catch Blackfin Darter: Just fish normally.
