PiZy48G.pngFishing is a gathering skill which involves catching fish. Higher Fishing levels allow for the utilisation of different mechanisms of Fishing as well as the ability to catch a larger selection of fish. Caught fish may be cooked through the Cooking skill to create food which may be used to regain health during combat.

The shark outfits are elite skilling outfits for Fishing. Pieces of the shark outfit, burnt shark outfit, and tiger shark outfit can be created from shark fragments, which are awarded to players with at least 70 Fishing at 5 minute intervals when fishing. Each outfit consists of 5 pieces: head, body, legs, hands, feet. The fragments can be assembled into outfit pieces after discovering the Invention blueprints, requiring 80 Fishing and 20 Invention.

The outfit pieces were also previously available from Treasure Hunter.

When wearing a complete set of any of these three outfits, players gain the following bonuses:

  • Ability to toggle between receiving fish while fishing, or having fish be destroyed as they are caught (right-click Consume options on the head slot item).
  • Chance of catching a fish is increased by 5%.
  • Living rock creatures in the Living Rock Caverns will not be aggressive.
  • If the player owns a complete fishing outfit, then they will receive its 5% experience boost when wearing a shark outfit.

If a player owns all the pieces of the shark outfit, burnt shark outfit, and tiger shark outfit, they can combine the components to form pieces of the fury shark outfit (by using the pieces on each other with all three pieces present in the inventory). The fury shark outfit gives the same bonuses as the individual shark outfits, as well as some improvements:

  • The player's chance of catching a fish is increased by 7% (instead of 5%).
  • 10% chance of catching two fish at once while fishing, giving double experience.
  • 60-70% chance of not using bait when a fish is caught.

Useful Items

1WYbzqV.png Sing of the porter, Allows you to automatically bank any fish caught straight into your bank.
 
P6YeVl8.pngGrace of the Elves which you can add porters to and gives the chance of Seren spirit to spawn, this maximize your afk ability.
 
v74RV4O.pngEach potency level of torstol incense sticks provides a 0.5% increase to base XP gain. The potency level will increase every 10 minutes and will reach its maximum at level 4 (+2% to base XP). Overloading consumes 6 sticks but instantly provides the maximum potency.

7pNjjDq.png Ring of Whisper. When equipped, it provides a +3 invisible level boost to the following gathering skills: Divination, Farming, Fishing, Hunter and Archaeology
 
Fishing Rods
 
Bjwi71w.pngPlayers can use reward points from the Stealing Creation mini-game to purchase proto-tools and volatile clay tools. These items can be transformed into a selection of skill related tools, including sacred clay harpoons and volatile clay harpoons. These harpoons can be right-clicked to grant Fishing bonus experience
 
 
XSsdj1w.pngThe crystal fishing rod gives a 5% increase in the chance of catching a fish at fishing spots that require the use of a fishing rod. Players with level 80 Smithing can create a crystal fishing rod by combining a crystal tool seed at the Singing Bowl.
 
 
VZE8ARz.png The fishing rod-o-matic is an enhanced fishing tool researched at level 22 Invention. It can be used to fish in most fishing spots when wielded. Despite the animation played when using the tool, bait such as feathers or fishing bait are still required for the appropriate fishing spots.

This makes the rod-o-matic a cheaper way of training Invention through Fishing, but brings slower Fishing experience as it both does not have the bonus to fishing experience that the crystal rod does, and requires the player to disassemble various items to obtain the components needed to make it.

This item uses charges stored in the universal charge pack. When the charge pack runs out of charges, the item loses stats and gizmo effects, and can also no longer gain any equipment experience. Full functionality will resume when the pack is recharged with divine charges.

 
 
bxGo045.pngTavia's fishing rod is a fishing rod and hero item rarely obtained from Deep Sea Fishing. It increases the success rate when fishing by 10% when wielded. Tavia's fishing rod has a small chance of granting all three Deep Sea Fishing boosts (5% additional Fishing experience, a 10% chance to gain an additional catch, and a 10% fishing rate boost) for 10 minutes to the player using it whenever a fish is caught, while also giving a single buff to all surrounding players for 2 minutes. This effect can activate when fishing anywhere, not just in the Deep Sea Fishing hub
 
Relic power
 
IMqGJU4.png Players with level 117 Archaeology can activate the Inspire Effort relic power at the mysterious monolith for a 2% experience increase to Fishing.
 
Visible Skill Boosts

In order to increase the chance for a successful fishing attempt, one can use various consumables. Namely the fishing potion and fish and admiral pies. Cooking up spicy stews isn't tempting, if one has access to the grand exchange, as the Admiral Pie provides a +5 skill boost and isn't based on chance. An exhaustive list can be found here.

 
Special: Skillchompas

You can use skillchompas for fishing. It's an expensive method and may be hard to get supplies for, but it's good EXP.
