==Walkthrough==
*Talk to [[Irmilant]] to start the quest.
*He requests a [[Saber Shoot]] and [[Opal Silk]], which can be obtained through the [[Inside the Belly]] quest.
**[[Saber Shoot]] can be obtained by trading [[Gugrusaurus]] to [[Zaldon]]. The rate at which [[Zaldon]] gives out [[Saber Shoot|Saber Shoots]] is rumored to be between 0.5% and 2%
***Gugrusaurus bite on the [[Ferry - Mhaura/Selbina]] during pirate attacks, on the [[Manaclipper]] during the part the routes to and from [[Bibiki Bay - Purgonorgo Isle|Purgonorgo Isle]] that are closest to [[Bibiki Bay - Purgonorgo Isle|Purgonorgo Isle]], as well as on the [[Ferry - Mhaura/Al Zahbi]] (no special requirements for this ferry).
***Gugrusaurus bite on [[Meatball]] and [[Drill Calamary]]. Drill Calamary can be obtained by trading [[Sea Zombie|Sea Zombies]] to Zaldon (approximately 25% of Sea Zombies will yield a Drill Calamary). Occasionally the [[Pirate's Chart (Quest)|Pirate's Chart Quest]] will also yield a Drill Calamary.
***When hooked with a Meatball, Gugrusaurus will only stay on the hook for a very short period of time unless the fisherman has the effect of an [[Albatross Ring]] active. Drill Calamary does not suffer this penalty.
**[[Opal Silk]] can be obtained by trading a [[Lik]] to [[Zaldon]]. Approximately 0.5% to 2% of Lik traded will yield an Opal Silk.
***Lik can be caught in Leremieu Lagoon in [[Lufaise Meadows]].
***Lik bite on [[Minnow]] and [[Dwarf Pugil]]. Dwarf Pugils can be obtained by trading a [[Cave Cherax]] to [[Zaldon]] (approximately 25% of Cave Cheraxes will yield a Dwarf Pugil). Occasionally the [[Brigand's Chart (Quest)|Brigand's Chart Quest]] or the [[Pirate's Chart (Quest)|Pirate's Chart Quest]] will also yield a Dwarf Pugil.
***Lik will stay on the hook for a shorter period of time when hooked with a Minnow than when hooked with a Dwarf Pugil; however, the difference is not as pronounced as with the two [[Gugrusaurus]] baits.
*Trade the [[Saber Shoot]] and [[Opal Silk]] to [[Irmilant]].
*Return after Conquest tally and talk to [[Irmilant]] to end the quest, and receive your reward.

;Notes:
*The Fishing Guild Point key item [[Serpent Rumors]] is required to start the quest as well as hook and catch [[Gugrusaurus]] and [[Lik]].
*The [[Mooching]] key item will extend the time that the fish will stay on the hook when a live bait ([[Drill Calamary]] or [[Dwarf Pugil]]) is used.
*[[Albatross Ring|Albatross Rings]] are highly recommended to extend the time that the fish will stay on the hook, especially in the case of [[Gugrusaurus]].
*Level 78 Fishing is required in order to get the [[Serpent Rumors]] key item, so that is the absolute minimum level; however, fishers lower than level 90 fishing will have a very difficult time reeling in the fish necessary for the quest. Close to level 100 fishing is highly recommended.
*You will break your rod a lot trying to catch these fish, please consider either raising woodworking or bringing a woodworking mule along for repairs. Please also be aware that you will lose your rod if you are repairing it when the Ferry docks.
