FIX FISHING

[Urthdigger]

Ok, so here's my situation. Rank 16 fisher, fishing in grade 2. 70 in all my stats, Gathering is at 25, Output at 23, Percetion at 20. Using Goby Balls and fishing at the waters south of Camp Skull Valley (Pretty sure I'm using the right bait, as it says they're biting on Goby Balls). However, every time I fish I get one jig, maybe two if I'm lucky. None of my other DoLs are this luck based. I'm just trying to get some helmet crabs for the guild task, but most of my casts fail on the first jig, and the rest are sea cucumbers >.>

As far as fishing up Helmet Crabs I use a Cage Feeder and I fish the schools at 14,23 and 14,24 and should be one on the other side at 13,23.. turns into 14,23 when you get to the edge of the cliff and use the sweet spot as mentioned in the link below.

also, you can check out Vesper's bait chart and it also shows the cage feeder for these crabs.

I don't know why Helm Crabs seem to be an issue for you, I have fished them up with an alt fisher at 15 with no issues at all. Perhaps you were deep in your gathering limit at the time?
