As of patch 7.41, the Matriarch is the most slippery fish in the game. There is not you can do about that - she is in charge, and she will stay on the line when she chooses.

To maximize the chances of getting The Matriarch biting though - simply use Patience II with Honeyworm. Reel in any ! bites before 15s with Precision Hookset, if you don't have a bite by 15s use Rest and cast back out. Mooch your Abalathian Smelts.

On the mooch if you get a !!! bite, use PRECISION HOOKSET (if using Patience II, otherwise just use Hook) to attempt to catch The Matriarch. If you get any other bite on the mooch, just use Rest and repeat.

No need to use Swimbait or anything besides just Patience II and Makeshift Bait. Use Mooch II whenever you can when Patience II or Makeshift Bait is not active.

Free Trial players - you can basically follow this guide as is, just use Patience instead of Patience II.

Good luck and happy fishing!
