LumidaubI’d argue Gollum is at an advantage when it comes to looking for things because his eyes are huge and not covered by hoods. As illustrated in this post, really.

panda_abyssHe spent like 700 years in a pitch dark cave only wandering out occasionally to use the ring to kill stray goblins.
It’s not just that he lusts after the ring, it’s that he feels totally dependent on it.
He lives in a cave with no exits other than constantly heavily guarded goblin gates. When he loses it he’s trapped. He can’t hunt anymore. He can’t leave. And he sobs uncontrollably in that fear. Then bilbo, a hobbit barely 3 feet tall uses the ring to leap 6 feet over Gollum’s head just to show you how powerful that ring can make the wearer, but bilbo doesn’t think anything of it.
Riddles in the Dark is such a good chapter. The movie does not due that book justice at all.
