[[File:Fishing (skill).svg|thumb|right|Fishing]]
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is used to catch [[Fishing#Fish|fish]], [[Fishing#Special|special items]], and [[Fishing#Junk|junk]]. Many of the fish may be cooked with {{Skill|Cooking}} for use as [[food]] during {{Icon|Combat}} or {{Skill|Thieving}}, while a number of others can be used as ingredients for {{Skill|Herblore}} potions or {{Skill|Summoning}} tablets.


Fishing lets you catch fish, which can be [[Cooking|cooked]] to be used as [[food]] for [[combat]] or [[thieving]]. While fishing there is a 70% chance to catch a random fish in the selected area every 5 seconds. This chance can be increased to 100% by equipping the [[Amulet of Fishing]]. Raising fishing to level 99 will unlock the [[Fishing Skillcape]] for purchase from the [[Shop]]. The [[Fishing Skillcape]] halves the catch time. Using [[Herblore#Skill_Potions|Fisherman's potions]] ensures you will catch the highest level fish in the area.
Of the [[Fishing#Special|special items]] obtained from Fishing, the {{ItemIcon|Ancient Ring of Skills}} and {{ItemIcon|Ancient Ring of Mastery}} are particularly noteworthy due to the skill and {{Icon|Mastery}} experience bonuses they provide for all non-combat skills. These rings are however also considered some of the rarest items in the game, and can take a significant amount of time to obtain.
 
== Mechanics ==
The amount of time each Fishing action takes can be reduced by 5-40% by purchasing [[#Fishing Rods|fishing rods]] from the [[Shop#Fishing_Rods|Shop]], 15% with the {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Fishing}}, 5% with the second unique star of {{ConstellationIcon|Ameria}} ({{MasteryReq|Ameria|60|type=constellation}}), 3% with the {{TotH}} {{AgilityIcon|Elite Pillar of Expertise}}, 2% with {{TotH}} {{PetIcon|Harold}}, and 0.5 seconds while the {{ItemIcon|Octopus}} + {{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Eagle}} [[Synergy]] is active.
 
Fishing benefits from a couple of guaranteed item doubling bonuses, one being the {{ItemIcon|Fishing Skillcape}} perk, while the other is obtained by reaching a {{Icon|Mastery}} level of 99 in the fish being caught. While both are active, the quantity of fish caught per action is guaranteed to be at least 4. These bonuses apply multiplicatively with the chance to double items, and so the quantity of fish gained from a single action can be as much as 8.
 
{{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Lost Chest|Lost Chests}} may drop in addition to the usual action rewards if the {{UpgradeIcon|Corundum Fishing Rod}} has been purchased or if the {{ItemIcon|Superior Fishing Skillcape}} is equipped, and can also drop from base game fish. When opened, lost chests may contain any of the superior [[Gem|gems]], {{ItemIcon|Runestone|Runestones}} or any of the three fishing consumables: {{ItemIcon|Fishing Hook}}, {{ItemIcon|Golden Reel}}, and {{ItemIcon|Burning Reel}}. The last two consumables are exclusive to the lost chest and cannot be obtained elsewhere.
 
{{ItA}}[[Into the Abyss Expansion]] has a chance to drop {{ItemIcon|Abyssal Fishing Chest}} while fishing. This Chest drops no Junk. It has a chance to drop random [[Bars]], [[Gems]], [[Rings]] as well as {{ItemIcon|Luminous Lure}} and 4 rare items.


== Fishing Areas ==
== Fishing Areas ==
New fishing areas are unlocked as your fishing level increases. Areas differ only in the maximum amount of types of fish that can be found in them.


Insert fishing area table here.
There are 15 Fishing Areas, with different fish located in each Fishing Area. Each area has different chances to obtain junk or special items instead of fish. The chance to obtain special items can be reduced by wearing the {{ItemIcon|Sailor's Top}}, which can be useful to maximise the amount of fish obtained.
[[Category:Needs_Table]]
 
The '''Barbarian Fishing''' area is unlocked by wearing the {{ItemIcon|Barbarian Gloves}}. Catching fish in the Barbarian Fishing Area will give {{Skill|Strength}} and Fishing skill experience. This Strength experience is also affected by the experience bonus from {{ItemIcon|Gold Emerald Ring}}.
 
The '''Secret Area''' is unlocked by reading the {{ItemIcon|Message in a Bottle}} in the [[Bank]]. After the first reading, the bottle has no further use and can be safely sold.
 
The '''Fisherman's enclave''' is unlocked by discovering {{AoD}} {{POIIcon|Fisherman's Enclave}} in {{Skill|Cartography}}.
 
Both the {{ItemIcon|Message in a Bottle}} and {{ItemIcon|Barbarian Gloves}} are [[Fishing#Special|special items]] that can be found while fishing.

== Fishing Rods ==
Higher levels of fishing allow you to purchase better fishing rods from the [[Shop#Fishing_Rods|Shop]]. The bonus speed is actually a percent reduction in the time that it takes to catch a fish.

Fishing is used to catch fish, special items, and junk. Many of the fish may be cooked with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking

for use as food during

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving

, while a number of others can be used as ingredients for

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Herblore

potions or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Summoning

tablets. Of the special items obtained from Fishing, the Ancient Ring of Skills and Ancient Ring of Mastery are particularly noteworthy due to the skill and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery

experience bonuses they provide for all non-combat skills. These rings are however also considered some of the rarest items in the game, and can take a significant amount of time to obtain.

Mechanics

The amount of time each Fishing action takes can be reduced by 5-40% by purchasing fishing rods from the Shop, 15% with the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Amulet of Fishing

, 5% with the second unique star of

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ameria

(

), 3% with the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Elite Pillar of Expertise

, 2% with Harold, and 0.5 seconds while the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Octopus

+ Eagle Synergy is active. Fishing benefits from a couple of guaranteed item doubling bonuses, one being the Fishing Skillcape perk, while the other is obtained by reaching a

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery

level of 99 in the fish being caught. While both are active, the quantity of fish caught per action is guaranteed to be at least 4. These bonuses apply multiplicatively with the chance to double items, and so the quantity of fish gained from a single action can be as much as 8. Lost Chests may drop in addition to the usual action rewards if the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Corundum Fishing Rod

has been purchased or if the Superior Fishing Skillcape is equipped, and can also drop from base game fish. When opened, lost chests may contain any of the superior gems, Runestones or any of the three fishing consumables: Fishing Hook, Golden Reel, and Burning Reel. The last two consumables are exclusive to the lost chest and cannot be obtained elsewhere.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Into the Abyss Expansion has a chance to drop

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Abyssal Fishing Chest

while fishing. This Chest drops no Junk. It has a chance to drop random Bars, Gems, Rings as well as

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Luminous Lure

and 4 rare items.

Fishing Areas

There are 15 Fishing Areas, with different fish located in each Fishing Area. Each area has different chances to obtain junk or special items instead of fish. The chance to obtain special items can be reduced by wearing the Sailor's Top, which can be useful to maximise the amount of fish obtained.

The Barbarian Fishing area is unlocked by wearing the Barbarian Gloves. Catching fish in the Barbarian Fishing Area will give

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Strength

and Fishing skill experience. This Strength experience is also affected by the experience bonus from Gold Emerald Ring.

The Secret Area is unlocked by reading the Message in a Bottle in the Bank. After the first reading, the bottle has no further use and can be safely sold.

The Fisherman's enclave is unlocked by discovering Fisherman's Enclave in

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cartography

.

Both the Message in a Bottle and Barbarian Gloves are special items that can be found while fishing.

Purchases

Fishing Rods

Fishing rods are permanent upgrades purchased from the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Shop

that decrease the amount of time it takes to catch fish. The later rods also provide a number of other bonuses, as listed in the table below. The bonuses provided by these upgrades are permanently active once purchased i.e. they do not need to be equipped or otherwise enabled.

Rod Coatings

Melvor Realm Special Loot

The average value of a roll on the special fishing loot table is 523.69GP

Abyssal Realm Special Loot

The average value of a roll on the special fishing loot table is 500.00AP

To maximize the chance of obtaining special items, players may:

  • Select fish that are both within an area with a high special chance and have a low catch time - Raw Seahorse and Raw Skeleton Fish are ideal choices,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Raw Whisperfish
    for
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  • Gain a mastery level of at least 50 in the fish being caught, which increases the special chance by 3%

  • Have the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Octopus

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery
    level of
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Ameria
    to 20, as that star's unique modifier can increase the special chance by up to 5%

Conversely, to reduce the chances of obtaining special items, player may:

  • Have the Sailer's Top equipped, reducing the special chance by 100%. This item can be pickpocketed from the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Dock Hand
    .

Junk

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Rags to Riches I

, but the Rope can also be upgraded into Bowstring. They reward only 1 XP when caught, and are selected from the following table:

You can prevent the catch of Junk items if the mastery level of the intended catch is of 65 and beyond for that specific fish, or globally with the 25% Fishing Mastery Checkpoint.

Regardless of Fishing Mastery, you can still get Junk Items from Treasure Chests.

Familiars and Synergies that provide a bonus to Fishing.

Skill Boosts

Skill boosts are special enhancements that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the player's skills. These boosts can come from a variety of sources such as equipment, potions, pets, and masteries. Global boosts are boosts which apply across all skills. A boost can be assumed to be for the listed skill only, unless specifically stated it is a global boost. Boosts help the player to progress faster and achieve higher levels of mastery in each skill. The following are some common types of skill boosts and what they do:

  • Increased Skill XP: Increases the amount of experience points (XP) gained.
