Very Simple 99 Fishing Guide
Welcome to this short fishing guide. No information here is new, just presented slightly better ?
Getting Equipment
Type ::home and click on Vannaka, open the "Skilling" tab and purchase the following items.
Total Gold Required:
Regular Player: 94K GP
Ironman/Realism Player: 188K GP
1x Small Fishing Net - 100 GP
1x Fly Fishing Rod - 250 GP
9317x Feathers - 93K GP
IM/RLSM (x10 XP): 18614x Feathers - 187K GP
Small Net Fishing (Levels 1 - 20)
After gathering the items required for 99 fishing type ::fishing you will be teleported to the fishing guild, this is your new home now.
Walk into the centre and right click the fishing spots until you find "small net". Fish shrimp until level 20.
Catch 23 Shrimp for 20 Fishing
IM/RLSM (x10 XP): Catch 55 Shrimp for 20 Fishing
Fly Fishing (Levels 20 - 99)
RuneWild is coded different as in once you hit level 30 fishing you can only catch Salmon, this is a good thing because it bring us up from 1000 XP to 1400 XP per fish after level 30.
Catch 10 Trout for 30 Fishing
IM/RLSM (x10 XP): Catch 20 Trout for 30 Fishing
Catch 9307 Salmon for 99 Fishing (Fish 2200~ An Hour, 4 - 6 Hours)
IM/RLSM (x10 XP): Catch 18614 Salmon for 99 Fishing (Fish 2200~ An Hour, 8 - 9 Hours)
You have two methods that change the pace you will get 99 fishing although it is extremely marginal.
Dropping all the fish (Fastest) [Settings -> Game Controls -> Make sure Shift-Drop is Enabled]
Banking them all (Fast)
The reason we only do fly fishing is because it has the highest xp rate out of all methods and the fishing skill itself doesn't yield any good profits due to food being readily available in the home shop. The story is the same for Ironman/Realism as you can get food for free from doing Daily/Weekly challenges or simply thieving for 2 minutes and buying it.
Are you a donator?
If you are a donator you can type ::di to get to the Donator Island once you are there run west to the bank/fishing spots. You are able to fish all different types of fish here but the main attraction is the Fly Fishing spot close to the bank.
This drastically increases the speed as you can just instant depot your inventory with minimal running times.
At the donator Island it will take you 3 - 4 Hours as you can fish 2500~/hr
Thanks for reading.
