===Nets===
[[File:Small net fishing.png|thumb|300px|A player fishing on a [[Fishing spots|fishing spot]].]]The first few fish players can catch require nets. Players can use [[small fishing net]]s and [[big fishing net]]s. The big nets only allow players to catch different types of fish and sometimes items, such as [[casket]]s. When a player has found a [[fishing spot]], they can then use their net if the option "net fishing spot" is available. "Net fishing spot" can be found in: [[Draynor Village]], [[Lumbridge Swamp]], [[Musa Point]], the coastline near [[Rimmington]], the [[Wilderness Bandit Camp]], [[Al Kharid]], and [[Corsair Cove]]. A "cast fishing spot" is available at the park in [[Civitas illa Fortis]]. House keys, gems, [[Half key|key halves]], and clue bottles, can be obtained from this spot. (Before lv 5 fishing a small fishing net can be used here. After lv 5 it requires a big fishing net.)

===Fishing rods and bait===
[[File:Baiting.png|thumb|300px|This player is using a [[fishing rod]].]]
[[Fishing rod]]s are required for mid level fishing in both rivers and seas. Along with a fishing rod, players also need [[Fishing bait|bait]]. Bait can be bought in stores (3 [[coins]] each at the [[Port Sarim]] [[Gerrant's Fishy Business|fishing shop]]), but is also dropped by some [[monsters]] and [[random events]]. When a player has found a [[Fishing spots|fishing spot]], they can then use their fishing rod if the option "bait fishing spot" is available. For every [[fish]] you catch, you lose one piece of bait.
The [[oily fishing rod]] is a [[members]] only item required to catch [[infernal eels]] when used with [[ice gloves]] and to catch [[Raw lava eel|lava eels]] for the [[Heroes' Quest]]. The pearl variants such as the [[Pearl fishing rod]] are cosmetic and not improvements over the basic fishing rod, although they can be equipped which frees up a single inventory slot.

===Fly fishing rods and feathers===
[[Fly fishing rod]]s are also required for mid level fishing. These rods can only be used in rivers. Along with a fly fishing rod, players also need [[feather]]s. They can be bought from the [[Shilo Village (location)|Shilo Village]] and [[Port Sarim]] [[Gerrant's Fishy Business|fishing shop]], but are also dropped by [[chicken]]s. When a player has found a [[Fishing spots|fishing spot]], they can then use their fly fishing rod if the option "lure fishing spot" is available.
[[Stripy feather]]s (introduced with the [[Hunter]] [[skill]]) can be used for fly fishing, as well. Those feathers work the same as normal feathers, but players will only be able to fish [[Raw rainbow fish|rainbow fish]], rather than the usual [[Raw trout|trout]] and [[Raw salmon|salmon]]. The [[Pearl fly fishing rod]] is cosmetic and not an improvement over the basic fly fishing rod, although it can be equipped which frees up a single inventory slot.

===Harpoon===
[[File:Harpooning.png|thumb|300px|This player is using a [[harpoon]] to fish.]]
[[Harpoon]]s are required for mid and high level [[fish]]. Harpoons can only be used in the seas. When a player has found a [[fishing spot]], they can then use their harpoon if the option "harpoon fishing spot" is available. [[raw swordfish|Swordfish]] and [[raw tuna|tuna]] are caught in cage/harpoon fishing spots, while [[raw shark|sharks]] are caught in net/harpoon spots.
There are five types of harpoons - the regular harpoon, the [[barb-tail harpoon]], the [[dragon harpoon]], the [[infernal harpoon]], and the [[crystal harpoon]]. The dragon harpoon and infernal harpoon both have a 20% faster catch rate than the regular harpoon, and the crystal harpoon has a 35% faster catch rate. The barb-tail harpoon, dragon harpoon, infernal harpoon, and crystal harpoon can all be wielded. Many players prefer these harpoons as it saves an [[inventory]] space.
After being taught by [[Otto Godblessed]], a player can catch fish that are harpoonable with just their hands. The fishing level requirement is 20 levels higher and it also requires a [[Strength]] level equal to the fishing level needed to catch the fish normally, but a small amount of strength experience is gained and the player doesn't need a harpoon equipped or in their inventory.

===Lobster Pots===
[[File:Caging.png|thumb|300px|This player is using a [[lobster pot]] to catch [[Raw lobster|lobster]]s.]]
[[Raw lobster|Lobster]]s are caught in the sea by using [[lobster pot]]s. When a player has found a [[Fishing spots|fishing spot]], they can then use their lobster pot if the option "cage fishing spot" is available. This is also true for [[Raw Dark Crab|Dark Crabs]], with the only exception being [[Dark Fishing Bait]] must also be in a player's inventory.

===Cormorant's glove===
[[Aerial fishing]] is a ranged fishing technique at the center of [[Lake Molch]] requiring 35 [[Hunter]] and 43 [[Fishing]]. Players are given a [[Cormorant's glove]] for free by talking to [[Alry the Angler]]. While equipped the [[Cormorant]] eats [[King worm|King worms]] or [[Fish chunks]] ''(taken from inventory similar to bait)'' to fly over the lake's surface, collect and return various unique aquatic creatures to the player. Catches include [[Bluegill]], [[Common tench]], [[Molted eel]] and [[Greater siren]] based on the fishing and hunter levels of the player.  A knife can be used on these catches to give Cooking experience and receive fish chunks which makes the process sustainable.
Additional rewards include the [[Molch pearl]] currency which can be used to purchase the [[Pearl fishing rod]], [[Pearl fly fishing rod]], [[Pearl barbarian rod]] and [[Fish sack]]. These are equipable versions of common fishing equipment for additional inventory capacity. Although pearls can also purchase parts of the [[Angler's outfit]] It's a much slower method than the recommended [[Fishing trawler]] minigame.

===Drift Nets===
[[Drift net fishing]] is a special fishing method that requires 44 [[Hunter]] and 47 [[Fishing]] accessible after completing [[Bone Voyage]]. Unlike fishing from a spot on the surface, this occurs in the [[Underwater]] area of [[Fossil Island]] where [[fish shoal]]s are chased into [[Drift net]]s set by the player beforehand. Collecting fish shoals from the nets can reward various fish depending on your fishing level including [[Raw tuna|tuna]], [[Raw lobster|lobster]], [[Raw swordfish|swordfish]], [[Raw shark|sharks]] and at higher levels is one of the few methods to catch [[Raw sea turtle|sea turtles]] and [[Raw manta ray|manta rays]].

===Karambwan vessels===
[[Karambwan vessel]]s can be obtained from [[Lubufu]] south of [[Brimhaven]] once a player has started the [[Tai Bwo Wannai Trio]] [[Quests|quest]] and they can be bought from [[Tiadeche's Karambwan Stall]] in [[Tai Bwo Wannai]] once they have completed the quest. Karambwan vessels are loaded with [[Raw karambwanji|karambwanji]], which are caught from the lake that is near Lubufu. [[Raw karambwan|Karambwan]] are caught at the north-east shore north of the [[Ship Yard]].

===Barbarian Fishing===
[[Members]] with level 48 in Fishing can speak with [[Otto Godblessed]] in his [[Otto's Grotto|home]] near [[Baxtorian Falls]] to learn special [[Barbarian Training|barbarian methods]] of fishing.
====Bare Handed Fishing====
[[File:Barbarian Fishing (shark).gif|thumb|200px|A player catches a shark with barehanded fishing.]]
The player can learn how to fish [[Raw tuna|tuna]], [[Raw harpoonfish|harpoonfish]], [[Raw swordfish|swordfish]], and [[Raw shark|sharks]] without a [[harpoon]]. Using this method requires a higher Fishing level as well as a Strength level equivalent to the Fishing level needed to catch the fish normally. However, it provides small amounts of Strength experience. At level 55, players can expect rates of 10,000 Fishing experience per hour, steadily increasing to 13,000 experience per hour at level 69. At level 70, catching both tuna and swordfish nets roughly 24,000 Fishing experience per hour.
====Heavy Rod Fishing====
Heavy rod fishing requires a [[barbarian rod]] (found under Otto's bed) and any type of bait (except for [[Stripy feather|stripy]]/coloured feathers), as well as a [[knife]] to gut the fish. In order to catch the special fish in Otto's lake, a [[Strength]] and [[Agility]] level is needed in addition to the fishing requirement. The [[leaping fish]] obtained can be used with a knife to obtain [[roe]] and [[caviar]] for use in the [[Herblore]] [[skill]], and catching them gives small amounts of [[experience]] in Strength and Agility. The [[Pearl barbarian rod]] is cosmetic and not an improvement over the basic Barbarian rod, although it can be equipped which frees up a single inventory slot.

==Other Equipment==
===Rada's blessing===
Rada's blessing will give you an extra chance at catching a fish, with no additional experienced granted, starting at 2% for the [[Rada's blessing 1]] to 8% with the [[Rada's blessing 4]].

=== Angler's Outfit===
Obtained through the [[Fishing trawler]] minigame and [[Aerial fishing]], pieces of the [[Angler's outfit]] grant a bonus to fishing XP gained, increasing to 2.5% with the full outfit.
==Fishing spots==
{{Main|Fishing spots}}
Players may fish at various fishing spots located around [[Gielinor]], while fishing, the location of a [[fishing spot]] may move from one spot to another within the same area, requiring the player to move in order to continue. The only exceptions to this are select fishing spots located within the wilderness and Karambwan fishing spots.
===Net and bait fishing spots===
* [[Draynor Village]] - To the south-west of Draynor Village's [[bank]] are some [[fishing spots]]. Here, players can [[Small fishing net|net]] and [[Fishing rod|bait]] [[fish]]. It is a great place to start fishing as there is a bank nearby. However, there are two level 7 [[Dark wizard]]s that can be a problem for players under level 15.
*[[Mudskipper Point]] - South of [[Port Sarim]] are two to three fishing spots dotting the western shore of the peninsula, located behind the church and near [[Thurgo]]'s shack. However, the nearest banks are either Draynor Village or [[Pest Control]].
*[[Brimhaven]] - To the south of Brimhaven are some fishing spots. However, these spots are far away from a bank, so if a player wants to deposit their fish, it is recommended to fish at Draynor Village.
*[[Corsair Cove]] - To the south-west of the cove, south of the [[Corsair Cove Dungeon]] entrance.
*[[Lumbridge Swamp]] - At the east side of the swamp is the [[Fishing tutor]], giving a free small net to players that have lost theirs, and some low level fishing spots.
* [[Al Kharid]] - There are some [[Raw shrimps|shrimp]] fishing spots south of the Al Kharid bank, approximately as far as the fishing spots in Draynor Village are from the bank. However, the [[scorpion]]s can be a problem for people with low levels.
*[[Catherby]] - Along the south-eastern shore. Close to a bank.
*[[Entrana]] - Players cannot bring any [[armour]] or [[weapons]] on Entrana.
*[[Isafdar]] - Could be useful for emergency [[food]] supplies.
*[[Piscatoris Fishing Colony]] - North-west of the [[Grand Tree]], or by using the [[fairy ring]] code {{Fairycode|akq}}. Players can use a small net to catch [[Raw monkfish|monkfish]], which are exclusive to this area. Piscatoris is only accessible after the completion of the [[Swan Song]] [[quest]].
*[[Karamja]] lake - Shrimp and [[Raw karambwanji|karambwanji]]. South of [[Tai Bwo Wannai]].
*[[Bandit Camp (Wilderness)|Wilderness Bandit Camp]] - There is one spot in the level 24 [[Wilderness]]. There is no bank, and [[Aggressiveness|aggressive]] level 22 and 130<sup>([[members]]' worlds)</sup> [[Bandit]]s are nearby.
*[[Port Piscarilius]] - Along the north-eastern shore. Very close to a bank.
===Lure and bait fishing spots===
*[[Barbarian Village]] - On the eastern side of the village is the [[River Lum]]. In the river are some [[fishing spots]] where players can [[Fly fishing rod|lure]] and [[Fishing rod|bait]] [[fish]]. Players can bank in [[Soul Wars]] bank by using the portal south of [[Edgeville]].
*[[Lumbridge]] - In the centre of Lumbridge is the River Lum. In the river are some spots where players can lure and bait fish. This used to be an unpopular fishing spot, until the addition of [[Lumbridge Castle]]'s bank.
*Between [[Seers' Village]] and [[Sinclair Mansion]]
*[[Entrana]] - Players cannot bring any [[armour]] or [[weapons]] on Entrana.
*[[Tree Gnome Stronghold]]
*[[Shilo Village (location)|Shilo Village]] - Completion of the [[Shilo Village]] [[quest]] is required for entry into the village. These locations are quite close to a bank.
*[[Observatory]] - Not too far north of [[Castle Wars]].
*[[Hosidius]] - Along the river north-west of Hosidius, and just to the east of the city kitchen task, where there is a bank chest.
*[[Water Ravine Dungeon]] - Unpopular spot due to distance from bank, need for [[Ancestral key]] and [[Robe of elidinis (top)|Robes of elidinis]] to access, and partial completion of [[Spirits of the Elid]] quest.
*North of [[West Ardougne]], near [[Rasolo]].
*:'''Note:''' [[Raw trout|Trout]] and [[Raw salmon|salmon]] can be sold to Rasolo for 2 and 5 [[coins]] respectively.
===Big net fishing spots===
*[[Catherby]] - Along the south-eastern shore. Close to a [[bank]].
*[[Fishing Guild]] - Requires 68 Fishing. Very close to a bank.
*[[Rellekka]]
*[[Burgh de Rott]]
*[[Land's End]]
*[[Ape Atoll]]
===Harpoon & Lobster Pot fishing spots===
* [[Karamja]] - Behind [[Luthas]]' [[banana]] plantation on the northern part of the island is a small dock that has [[fishing spots]] where players can [[harpoon]], [[Lobster pot|cage]], or [[Small fishing net|net]] [[fish]]. Unfortunately a [[bank]] is very far away, and players have to pay 30 [[coins]] to go to the island and 30 coins to leave the island, but there is a [[bank deposit box]] on the dock in [[Port Sarim]]. This place is rarely used by members, as better areas are available.
* [[Corsair Cove Resource Area]] - North of the [[Myths' Guild]]. Requires completion of [[Dragon Slayer I]] to access.
*[[Wilderness]] - At level 35 to 38 in the Wilderness are some harpoon and cage fishing spots in the waters at the eastern edge. [[Raw Dark Crab]]s can be fished off the north-eastern coast, south of the fence containing the [[members-only]] deep wilderness. However, players risk being attacked by other players here, and a bank is very far away.
*[[Resource Area]] - This [[members-only]] location contains [[Dark Crab]] fishing spots where a player can fish as long as they please as they can note their resources, via [[Piles]] for 50 coins per item noted. The fastest way to the location is the [[Lever (Edgeville)|Edgeville Teleport Lever]]. Note that a player must spend anywhere from 7,500 coins to 3,750 coins without completion of the [[Wilderness Diary]] in order to gain entry to the area. Note that fishing here may place players in potentially dangerous [[Player killing|PvP]] scenarios.
*[[Catherby]] - Along the south-eastern shore. Close to a bank.
*[[Rellekka]] - Very useful if fighting in the area due to the lack of bank.
*[[Fishing Guild]] - Requires 68 Fishing. Very close to a bank.
*[[Piscatoris Fishing Colony]] - Here players can net and harpoon fish after the completion of the [[Swan Song]] [[quest]].
*[[Burgh de Rott]] - [[Raw shark|Sharks]] only.
*[[Iorwerth Camp]] - Sharks only, good area if you are fighting, otherwise, it is far from a bank.
*[[Jatizso]] - [[Raw lobster|Lobster]], [[Raw swordfish|swordfish]], sharks and close to bank. Requires completion of [[The Fremennik Trials]].
=== Other fishing spots===
These generally are one specific place for one specific type of fishing.
*[[Lumbridge Swamp Caves]], [[Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon]], [[Mort Myre Swamp]], and south of Mort Myre - [[Fishing rod|Bait]] fishing for [[Raw slimy eel|slimy eels]] and [[Raw cave eel|cave eels]].

*[[Zul-Andra]] - Bait fishing for [[sacred eel]]s. Requires starting the [[Regicide]] quest.
*[[Mor Ul Rek]] - Bait fishing using an oily fishing rod and bait while wearing ice gloves are required to catch [[infernal eel]]. Can only be caught once a player has proven themselves worthy enough to enter the city by showing a TzHaar guard guarding the entrance a fire cape
*[[Lake Molch]] - [[Lake Molch#Catching Fish|Aerial fishing]] using a Cormorant to catch fish from fishing pools that move every 7–12 seconds.
*[[Fishing Guild]] platform - [[Minnow]]s can be caught in Kylie Minnow's fishing platform with a small net. They can be exchanged for noted raw sharks.
*[[Port Piscarilius]] - [[Anglerfish]] can be caught along the north-western shore; this location is very close to a bank.
== Fishing Trawler==
{{Main|Fishing Trawler}}
[[Fishing Trawler]] is a Fishing [[minigame]] found at [[Port Khazard]]. Level 15 Fishing is required to receive [[fish]] at the end of the trip. World 370 is the ''[[Old School RuneScape]]'' designated Fishing Trawler world. It can be overwhelming for a single player, so it is recommended to participate in a group.
Players board [[Murphy]]'s trawler boat and work as a team to protect the boat from hazards and prevent it from sinking for five minutes as they sail across the oceans. Holes in the ship, flooding, sea monsters and broken netting are all hazards players must overcome to keep afloat. Failing these tasks may shipwreck players and force them to swim back to shore.
If the trawler net is not ripped at the end of the trip, players may receive [[fish]] based on their Fishing level. This is one of the few methods in which you are able to catch [[Raw sea turtle|sea turtles]] and [[Raw manta ray|manta rays]]. There is a 1/12 chance to receive a piece of the [[Angler's outfit]] after a successful trip. This outfit increases Fishing experience gain and allows access to special fishing areas.

==Tempoross==
{{Main|Tempoross}}
[[Tempoross]] is a Fishing-based skilling boss found at the [[Ruins of Unkah]]. Players need at least level 35 Fishing to participate. World 341, 422, 463 and 531 are the ''[[Old School RuneScape]]'' designated Tempoross worlds.
Players board the boat on the dock and sail to [[Tempoross Cove]] to help the [[Spirit Anglers]] subdue Tempoross. As a skilling boss, players use Fishing to catch [[harpoonfish]] as ammunition, firing them out of cannons to weaken Tempoross while avoiding various special attacks. When Tempoross is weak enough it'll submerge and can be damaged directly by harpooning the pools near him. Players must be careful not to let Tempoross get too enraged as it'll wash them off the island.
Defeating Tempoross will grant Fishing experience and reward permits based on participation. These permits allow you to fish at the [[reward pool]] for a chance at many unique or high quality fishing items in addition to [[fish]] based on your Fishing level. This is one of the few methods to gather [[Raw sea turtle|sea turtles]] and [[Raw manta ray|manta rays]]. Other rewards include the coveted [[fish barrel]], the [[tackle box]] or the components to upgrade the [[Angler's outfit]] into the [[Spirit angler's outfit]].

==Fishing pets==
[[File:Heron (follower).png|right|150x150px]]
*The [[Heron]] is a members-only skilling [[pet]] that can be obtained while training [[Fishing]]. The chances of getting it are dependent on the player's Fishing level, and the time it takes to gather a resource.
*A [[tiny tempor]] may be obtained by fishing it from the [[reward pool]] outside the [[Ruins of Unkah]] after defeating the [[Tempoross]].

Fishing is a skill which involves catching fish from selected spots around Gielinor. Higher Fishing levels enable different mechanisms of Fishing, the ability to catch a larger selection of fish and increases a player's catch rate. Caught fish may be cooked through the Cooking skill to create food which may be used later to regain hitpoints during combat. Alternatively, many players sell their excess stock of catches for gold.


Fish

Main article: Fish

When caught, most fish will be raw and cannot be eaten until they are cooked. The name and colour indicates this. For example, when shrimps are first caught they are named "raw shrimps", but once cooked the name changes to "shrimps".

Clue in a bottle

Main article: Clue bottle

While fishing, players may also occasionally receive clue bottles that contains a clue scroll of the following difficulties: beginner, easy, medium, hard, and elite. Master clue scrolls cannot be obtained from clue bottles.

Fishing methods

Equipment

Players need the right kind of equipment to catch the fish they want. Basic Fishing equipment can be purchased in fishing shops. Players can buy fishing equipment from the fishing store in Port Sarim and from the fishing store in Catherby. More advanced fishing methods may need to be found or crafted.
