In fishing, everything has different worth depending on the person. I personally bought a lizard lure that I wont ever use for 500k, and I know any sane fisher would never do that. That's just an example.

Some people might think the rings are worth 500k to them, others wouldn't bother.

I can't tell you the exact % of increase, although in my personal studies using both rings (noddy and puffin) together increased the bite rate of Hakuryu by 5%. This % will vary depending on the amount of fish in the water that can bite your lure, and how many large fish there are.

For example, when fishing hakuryu if you use sinking minnow it only can hook onto 1 large fish (plus 1 small). If you use minnow it can hook two large fish (plus 3 small). I know your not fishing hakuryu, yet, but this is an example of how the rings would benefit this fish more using sinking than using minnow since it is only increasing the bite rate of 1 single fish vs more than 1.

It is worth getting, but it is up to you if it is worth 500k or not. To some people it is.

It all depends how much you hate that damn gutting Galka. If he is your friend then yes you could fish up the rings. If that grubby Galka never gives you nice things just buy it on the ah and save the headache.

I'd say go fish it up, but if you were to buy it I'd say it's worth the 500k.
Pelazoea is a joke to fish up, it comes up quite often, and if I remember correctly, if you have at least a Lu Shang's you'll always catch it.

The elusive lizard lure, I'd totally pay that(No claims on my sanity)

I'd also pay 500k for the noddy ring, but seeing as there are never any on my server I'll be fishing for mine. Gil is too easy to make these days, you can get 500k in abby in no time flat, I'd say go for it.
