    If you're finding the green prismfish to have a low bite rate, you might be trying at the wrong time/weather. Despite what it may seem, they have very specific weather requirements for a regular fish, which I myself didn't even realize until this patch when I needed them for something. They only bite from 12am-4pm, and Fair>Clear,Fair weather ONLY. Clear>Fair and Clear>Clear do not work. When the weather and time are right, they bite quite frequently and you should have no trouble getting five, especially if you use Double Hook. They have a single tug as opposed to the double tugs of the other fish, so you can single them out easily for Double Hook.

    It also helps if you time it so that you are fishing up the greens during the 8am-4pm timeframe so that you don' t have to worry about the violet and red that appear during 12am-8am clogging up the bite pool.

    Just a friendly reminder - that prism fish (and probably most other 4.56 big fish) requires a minimum of 1300 gathering.
    What a fool I was to have all conditions met just to get the infamous "Insufficient gathering" message after it bit. Thankfully managed to get it on the next window.
    Happy fishing!
    Yeah I just discovered this myself after attempting Xenacanthus
