    I noticed that while catching Olgois, it's easier when u got gathering stat between 350-360. Never over 360. Also u can forget the perception food and buffs.

    U need HQ Storm Rider for mooch, but the HQ rate for it is max 15% (I think, since it's 15% max for botanist and miner too) and u have already capped it since it's only around lvl 40 fish.

    Rumors say that perception makes the fishes bigger, and harder to catch. So no need to buff ur perception, just in case. + u don't need the Olgoi-Khorkhois HQ

    Also, for some fishes, too much gathering might be bad thing. I have Halcyon Rod Supra, and I don't use foodbuffs, unless the fish I'm hunting, requires high gathering rate. And for now, I have still been able to catch Olgois just fine.

    So, just make sure ur gathering is around 350+ Ofc they might still escape, but u should be able to catch some =) Good luck!

    Total speculation, sure, but I gotta say that too much gathering may indeed be a hindrance in some instances. I had no problemo catching my first twenty HQ Sovereigns (was catching about six per day), but can't catch 'em to save my life (one per day now with the same time investment) now that I have the Forager's Rod. Seems easy enough to make a similar assumption/speculation regarding other Big Fish.

    Not sure if its luck or this has some truth to it. I have 349 gathering and tried lots with fish Olgoi getting away and Ive tried 383 and 373 with them getting away. I ate rabbit pie bringing 349 to 355 and out of 5, 2 got away and landed 3 NQs all in 1 night
