Lamotrigine's fishing guide

[Lamotrigine]

So you've wanted to take on the skill fishing. People ask me why i choose to fish over dragons etc. etc. since they're better money. I have one simple answer to that. AFK. Fishing is great if you just wanna afk the **** out of it and do something else. In fact, I'm fishing while I'm making this guide. Remember this is what I recommend, feel free to do whatever you want to. This is how you know you can trust me :P

 

(09:11:28) -Vectra[12]- ** (TRACKER): (Fishing) EXP gains for Lamotrigine in last 1day: 498,180

 

 

Levels 1-20

 

 

Basically you do this at Draynor village with shrimp. Takes 447 shrimp from 0 xp. Sounds boring but it's easy and the bank's right there.

 

Levels 20-40

 

You do these with Trout/salmon to 40(start lobbies right away) or do these until around 50 to make lobbies quicker. Ok, you can either do these at Shilo Village or at Barb Village. You bank at Soul Wars if you're going to bank them. You can also drop them but why do that? I find it easier to click a few times to bank rather than do 52 clicks to drop all 26 fish. You should be able to do 1-40 in a day or 2.

 

Levels 20-30

178 trout

 

Levels 30-40

About 350 trout and 200 salmon. Doesn't take long.

 

Levels 40-65

 

Ok, these will probably be the most booooring 25 levels of fishing you will ever do but this is where you start making money. You do lobsters the whole time. Why stop at 65 though? For swordie gloves. Now if you decide to do lobsters all the way to 76 more power to you, but I wouldnt. For 40-65 you do it at Catherby. If you do lobbies from 40-76 then switch to fishing guild at 68. I averaged around 1k lobsters a day from 40-65 so it doesn't take long.

 

 

Levels 40-65

 

Lobsters caught: 4,581

PCR Lobster current GE price: 423 mid

Money made from 40-65: 1,937,763 gp

 

 

Levels 40-76

(Assuming you decided to stay at Lobsters)

 

Lobsters Caught: 14,436

PCR Lobster current GE price: 423 mid

Money made from 40-76: 6,106,428 gp

 

Levels 65-76

If you did 40-76 at lobbies skip this part

 

Ok, so you're 65 fishing now. Time for a break. Go to fog **** some people up and get some swordie gloves =p. You will be using swordie gloves from 65-76 now. At 68 you move to fishing guild and at 70 you'll be ditching your harpoon to hand fish them though, cuz it makes you look like a total bad ass. Once again you can usually average 1k swordies a day.

 

 

Gloves needed from 65-76: 2

 

It's a bit harder to calculate how many swordies you'll catch due to the fact that you also catch tuna, but you'll have around 3.8k swordies and 4k tuna though.

 

PCR Swordfish current GE price: 563 mid

PCR Tuna current GE price: 169

 

Assuming you do catch 3.8k swordies and 4k tuna you make roughly 2.8m

 

Levels 76+

 

From this point on you have a few options.

A. Do lobsters to 99

B. Use swordie gloves to 99

C. Do sharks to 99

D. Sharks to Cavefish at 85 then rocktail at 90.(Method I did/doing)

 

Money Made/fish caught from each method

 

A. 129,978 lobsters caught. 54.9m made

B. Roughly 50k swordies and tuna caught. Roughly 36m made

C. 106,346 Sharks caught. 158m made

 

If you're going do Option A-C then the guide ends here for you..and I wish you the best of luck

 

Levels 76-85

 

Pretty self explanatory. You do sharks at fishing guild while afking it.

 

Sharks Caught: 17,475

PCR Shark Current GE price: 1545

Money Made: 27m

 

Levels 85-90

 

Ok, you can throw away your harpoon pick up your fishing rod and fishing bait(normal rod and bait) and head to living rock caves. Here's how ya find it. Make your way to Dwarven Mines and go down the ladder then make your way south where I'm standing. Now hop to world 84(the un official living minerals world where you'll PRETTTY much be safe)

 

 

Ok, once you're here go down the rope and into the caves south of the rope is the deposit box that you bank your fish at. There are no real banks.

 

 

Now that you know where the bank is where are the fishing spots? Virtually due south along the south walls typically around here.

 

 

I will also show you a safe spot to sit incase you do get hit. It's where im standing on the map up there but also right here in this corner.

 

 

Ok now that we have that squared away, back to fishing. Typically same as before. Can manage 1k cavefish a day

 

Levels 85-90

 

Cavefish caught: 6,960

PCR Cavefish current GE price: 1456

Money made: 10.1m

 

 

Levels 90-99

 

Ok, you can fish rocktail now :D YAYYYY! You fish them in the same place but instead of normal fishing bait you use "living minerals" that you can buy off the GE for 181gp each or kill the monsters in the cave and mine the for the bait(i'd just buy it). I average 1k+ rocktail a day.

 

Bait/Rocktail needed for 90-99: 20,232

Bait cost: 3.6m

 

Don't panic about the bait cost. You make that back in 1.2k rocktail.

 

Rocktail caught: 20232

PCR Rocktail current GE price: 2550

Money made: 51.5m

 

Bait cost taken from total made: 51m - 3.6m = 47.4m made :D

 

Total money made from 40-99 if using the method I suggest

 

Lobsters: 1.9m

 

Swordies/Tuna: 2.8m

 

Sharks: 27m

 

Cavefish: 10.1m

 

Rocktail: 47m

 

Total Money Made: 88m :D All from afking baby.

Nice stuff

[EOPian]

i like it,

 

but if sharks make you more profit then cavefish, why not do them until 90?

It's up to you. Cave fish for speed sharks for cash. Personally I'd do cave fish to get the feel for the caves.

[Pete]

Breh, don't be hatin'

 

>.>

 

Nice guide though. Any guess how long it would take?

[Lamotrigine]

depends on how long you play a day. If you're like me then you could probably pull off 70-96 in a month or 2. That's with me taking breaks to pk, slay, sw and etc. too.
