WotLK: Giant Sewer Rat
A very rare minipet, the Giant Sewer Rat, can be caught from Dalaran's Underbelly (sewers).
Dalaran requires 430 fishing skill to cast, 525 to stop get-aways. The catch rate has not yet been confirmed, but I caught almost 600 fish before finding my first Giant Sewer Rat: This is not a common catch!
The rat binds when picked up, so can only be gained by the angler. This will trigger a confirmation, so be very careful when auto-looting and rapidly recasting.
Looting the Giant Sewer Rat triggers a message "[you] has earned the achievement !" - with no named achievement yet.
For a full guide, read Dalaran Fishing.

Ahh, yes... That Giant Sewer Rat is a really nice specimen, yeah!
Slighty off-topic:
Sorry, El, for my dissapearance... But I wanted to refill my fishin' drinks so I relogged to inform you, but you were sadly gone.
Yet, It was really fun fishing with you! ;9

It's one slippery rat, im currently roughly over 400 catches, and still no smelly rat !
I really start to think El caught the one and only on Coldarra, the rat was living there all by himself :(

Actually found this in the Eventide (or whatever it is) fountain in Dalaran square. And I'm not gonna say this without evidence. Here's a link to the screen I got.

If your bobber lands at the edge of the fountain, you catch a sewer fish.
