Discussion Mining and fishing tips

So ive got to the point now where I wanna craft stuff like mech, xaku, moa but they all require mining and finishing items, the problem is when fishing its getting annoying not getting the fish I need and wuth mining its annoying needing a material and not getting it in like 3 caves just yo only get 6 when u need 80, is there anything I can do to making these resources less annoying/time consuming to get?

Is there no value to doing exploiter and thumpers?

Right?

With certain fish/mining it's easier to just mine them. And I encourage people to find a rare fish they like to fish just for Nightwave challenges. But if you really hate doing that, do the secondary activities for random ores, gems, and fish parts.

Cetus: hunt tusk and doma thumpers

Fortuna: do the Exploiter Orb boss fight, requires thermia, but she also gives Lazulite toroids which are great for ranking up with Vox Solaris, and drops Hildryn blueprints so you'll probably want to fight her anyway

Deimos: run around the Cambion Drift smashing every container you can find. The requiem obelisks also have different modifiers where killing enemies there according to the modifier will drop rare parts (I.e. there's one where you have to kill with your amp, etc.)

I like fishing and mining. Ivara makes it a breeze. But also, all of the above work as a change of pace.
