Mad Patient
Marie the Mad Patient sporadically visits wranglers fishing in Castout Creek.
When making a cast and he approaches, you will see the following message:
"Marie the Mad Patient is nearby... Castout Creek is home to the dangerous Marie the Mad Patient..."
"What do you want to do?"
You are given 4 options:
# Stay calm and don't move.
# Take off and run.
# Offer it my next few catches. (depends on Mad Patients's hunger)
# Defend with your Candy Cane / Medical Mangler Pole! (requires level 53 pole) (This works best with a Level 55+ Pole)
The last option changes depending on which pole (Candy Cane or Medical Mangler) you are currently using, and requires purchasing the fourth add-on for that pole.

Tips[edit]
Use your higher level pole for your encounter with Mad Patient so you have a better chance at Defending.
Marie is linked to the other encounters in terms of how often she appears. If you have interacted with others and already chose an option, you should be free from encountering Marie for about two hours. She will collect the silver and points if you offered catches from another encounter.
Choosing the Defend option will get you chances at the later items in the collection so you can trade down to complete the set.
