Selling the fish should result in enough gold to upgrade to the best available Fishing Rod in the Shop. It is to be noted that only fishing rods up to
actually help with speeding up the experience gain.
your fish will increase their value when sold, and will get you Cooking experience at the same time!
Junk
Changing fishing targets too often has one downside - Junk. It provides 1 XP when received, greatly reducing your overall XP and GP rates.
Players will receive Junk at a fairly high rate (10-29%, depending on location) while fishing until they achieve the 25%
Mastery Pool Checkpoint or when the
level for an individual fish reaches 65.
Therefore, it is reasonable to spend your Mastery Pool on getting Fanfish,
Raw Cave Fish,
Manta Rays, and
Whales to level 65 in order to remove the chance of Junk, which will boost your speed of progress.
Additional Information
The single most efficient item to obtain for training fishing is the
, then Fishing Rod upgrades in the Shop, then Pirates Lost Ring. The
is obtained by opening Treasure Chests.
There is a small chance to acquire the Message in a Bottle. It will unlock the Secret Area that gives no Junk and has a higher chance of special items. This area has
Raw Seahorse,
Raw Skeleton Fish, and
Raw Magic Fish.
Fishing for Raw Seahorse is used to get special items at the fastest possible rate, and are surprisingly efficient Cooking materials.
Raw Skeleton Fish is a decent way to get
points. Raw Magic Fish is a decent way to make GP and food without
. Getting to level 99 before fishing any of these fish - especially Raw Magic Fish - is strongly recommended as they all have poor xp rates, and the
Fishing Skillcape doubles all fish you catch.
Another hidden area is unlocked with the
Barbarian Gloves, this area has
Leaping Trout,
Leaping Salmon, and
Leaping Broad Fish. While these have no direct benefits to Fishing, they provide
xp. Generally only Leaping Broad Fish are worth the effort, although this is a minor benefit at best, and is no longer efficient beyond roughly
.
