Crimson Lugworm / Versatile Lure !! Tug.

Catch 1, Then use Identical cast & Prize catch for higher collectability.

Ok Timing for me is between the 10 and 30 RL minutes mark.
I'm also extremely ADHD even medicated so it may be less?

So far RNG is :
Catch everything else THEN catch a king puffer
I've had no difference in prize catch vs patience II
Aaaand, big fish kinda helped?

I dunno i should've not waited to do this so long lol.

High Tide Harbour in Tuliyollal (17.0, 12.7) Z: 0.0
Crimson Lugworm
Powerful Hookset (!!)
Any weather
Donuhanu collectability: 47 minimum, 110+ for maximum

I suggest using Patience II instead of prize catch as it's more GP efficient. As long as you have some cordials and spend your angler's on thalik's blessings you'll pretty much always have enough GP for both patience and identical cast once you get one of the fish.

Hello everybody. Would 100% reccomend using just the following build:
lure: versatile lure
time: seem to dont matter (i tried both day and night)
actions: prize catch-->cast-->(if ! bite just avoid, if !! there's a 33% chance it is the king puffer)--> if !! is king puffer: identical cast+prize catch; if !! is not king puffer: surface slap+prize catch and just avoid !

that's it! hope to have helped!

It took me around 10 real minutes to get 6 of em at more than 110 collectability

This one took me a couple real world hours, just bad luck I suppose. Some tips.

Use the Crimson Lugworm from the town vendor up the other alley. Have some Cordial HQ or Hi Cordials. I used the top perception food HQ since I had some on me.

Use collectors glove of course,
Start with Prize Catch,
If it's a ! bite, just let it take the bait. It'll leave your Prize Catch up.
Wait for over 14 seconds for a !! bite but less than 22 seconds. The bites after 22 are the Golden Cavalli.
If you get a collectible one, hit Prize Catch again, then Identical Cast.

I was only able to get this idiot to land during daytime. Wasted maybe 40 Crimson Lugworms casting at night--first cast after 4:30 AM was a King Puffer, as was every subsequent cast until I had all I needed for the quest.

Negative Space Seraph [Dynamis]

Fish off the end of the pier directly south of Donuhanu (marked by an orange quest zone circle)

TIME: Doesn't seem to be specific
BAIT: Versatile Lure
BITE STRENGTH: !!
ACTIONS: Just Prize Catch into Prize Catch + Identical Catch and Surface Slap Blue Purse - Remember to activate Collector's Glove
COLLECTIBILITY: 110 for max rewards
