And Percy has tricked and outsmarted many enemies, he isn't stupid at all when it comes to fighting. And I never heard of boys being easily tricked by the mist? Was that said in the series?

It's perfectly reasonable to think Chiron taught Percy the mist, since Chiron said to Percy himself that he would. Then it is perfectly reasonable to think that Hazel is training in the mist as well. Since Hazel has more potential than her mother the gris-gris, and Hectate personally told her that, we can assume that Hazel's mist is stronger than Percy's and since  we are assuming Percy Jackson is training or has been trained than it is only fair to assume that Hazel, the controller of the mist, daughter of a gris-gris, and a favorite of Hectate, is training as well, and longer than 4 months. By the way, Percy is now studying for his college and trying to catch up on the semester that Hera took away from him, while Hazel is probably training  in the mist, something that Percy is too busy to do.
