Just in case anyone was wondering.

If you save up all the rare fish you collected while trying to get your Underlight Angler, like me, don't it won't work. The text is not changed once you get the Underlight Angler.

It still says:

Use: Toss the fish back into the water, increasing Fishing skill by 5, up to a max of 800.

Only new rare fish will say:

Use: Toss the fish back into the water, granting 50 Artifact Power to your fishing artifact.

Quick answer: to get this fish you MUST HAVE the Underlight Angler fishing artifact rod, then fish up a Frost Worm which will give you a 2-minute buff to catch this Coldriver Carp rare fish which will give you a 50 artifact boost.

NB - you won't catch this fish if you do not have the Underlight Angler. Instead you'll catch another version of this fish also called the Coldriver Carp which only gives +5 fishing skill up and will not convert when you get the artifact fishing rod. So the lesson is DON'T KEEP OLD FISH!

The longer answer: the Coldriver Carp is a rare fish. To obtain this fish you need to get the following: a Frost Worm 2-minute buff which comes from obtaining a Frost Worm which is fished up using a Arcane Lure when fishing in pools in Legion's Highmountain zone. This Frost Worm spell will give a fisherman a 2-minute buff that will fish up Coldriver Carp which in turn will advance the Bigger Fish to Fry achievement, required to obtain the Underlight Angler, and possibly also the A Cast Above the Rest achievement if this was the first rare fished up. When tossed back, the Coldriver Carp would grant a fisherman a +5 skill up for fishing. Otherwise it will fish up this page's version of the fish called a Coldriver Carp which will grant a 50 artifact boost to a Underlight Angler fishing artifact rod.
