Thank you very much for this tip, it helped a lot, I now have a reliable way to make the oil so I can make the militia crafting tools for me and the LS crafters so we can better support the LS with 1 star items. I can confirm this worked well. Using low level bait (15 and lower) I caught nothing but Gobys which when HQed gave me a shot at the Silver Shark, occasionally I got a Wahoo to which seemed to HQ at least half the time mooching into a Silver Shark.

Again much appreciated.
