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!
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
