It can be frustrating for sure, especially since the wisplight is a bit unreliable at times.

You could consider walking/jogging more, make sure not to run too much because you might need the stamina soon. Also, try to listen, Gjalls are most of the time announcing their presence while far away, that dark omnious humming thing kinda means a gjall is nearby. It's not in combat awareness yet but it's a good sign it's time to be prepared.

How to prepare?
Flame resistance potions are great, especially if you like me run with the root chest armor (which also makes handling seekers and ticks easier since I've got piercing resistance).

Shoot the gjalls underbelly, deals more damage.

Don't stand in front of it. Might sound obvious but it's easy to do just like it's easiest to move straight away from it, which means it can keep shooting you. Instead run towards it, if it's too close. This way it won't be able to shoot you since you'll be below it and then behind it.

Have a way to deal with ticks, I like the Atgeir power attack but blocking and dodge rolling if they're on you also works. This is good for when you do end up under it.

But most importantly, goes for all mistlands areas, make sure to have stamina ready, don't end up running too much so you're caught without stamina.

Though I realize you might not have any issues with the actual Gjalls besides being annoyed at not seeing them.
