IV. Random Events
When you are fishing some Random Events happen. This are to prevent cheating. If you are not cheating then you will have no problem with them but if you are BEWARE!!!
Sea Troll (Attack) "Fishes be mine, leave dem fishes alone!"
20 Feathers
Big Fish - It will make you drop your fishing equipment while eating up a fishing spot.
Whirlpools - They will take over fishing spot. If you try to fish from them you will lose your equipment. Fishing spots will disappear from these swirls, but will re-spawn minutes later.
Moving Fishing Spots - All spots will move every once-in-a-while.
Old Man - "Greetings
Gets angry if you ignore him, but if you talk to him he will give you anything from a Kebab to a HALF KEY. If you ignore him he will teleport you to Lumbridge or a numerous amount of other places. Here is a list of things he can drop (From Least to Most Rare):
Kebab
20gp
650gp
Sapphire
Emerald
Ruby
Half key
Cosmic Talisman
Swarm of Bees
They will attack you and hit 1 and 2's on you. Just run away from this, because you cannot attack them.
Genie - "Greetings Master/Mistress
Appears randomly and rewards you with a magic lamp. If you ignore him he will scatter your items on the ground or teleport you. When you rub the lamp you will get experience to a skill of your choice.
Strange Plant
It appears to grow out of the ground. If you don't pick the "Strange Fruit" from it, it will attack you then possibly poison you. The Strange Fruit replenishes 10% of your energy.
Tangle Vines
These vines will grow very quickly out of the floor and spread to a few squares around you. Any monster or player that gets caught in these vines are a prone to taking damage, however this can be prevented if you do not move. The vines will dissapear after about 30 seconds if you do not move.
Drunken Dwarf
Appears out of nowhere. If you talk to him he will give you a kebab and a beer. If you ignore him, he will eventually attack. Like a swarm you cannot attack him back.
<------------------------------------>
V. Best way to reach Level 99 Fishing
Note: Use the above information to help you use this section easier.
Fishing Level 1 to 10
Note: Cooking Level 1 Needed.
So you have decided to start fishing? Well let's not waste time and let's get you ready to fish. Since at Level 1 Fishing the only thing you can fish are Shrimps then you need to buy a Small Net. Go to Port Sarim and buy a Small Net for a few GP. Now go to a Fishing Location where you can fish Shrimps and and start fishing Shrimps and don't forget to Cook them.
<------------------------------------>
Fishing Level 10 to 25
Note: Cooking Level 5 Needed.
Now you are 5 levels above the fishing level needed for Sardine. This is good since it will be easier to fish them now. Go buy a Fishing Rod and a few hundred Baits from Port Sarim. Now go to a Fishing Location where you can fish Sardine and start fishing there. You will also catch Herring which is better than Sardine. From this point on Cooking your fish will be crucial.
<------------------------------------>
Fishing Level 25 to 40
Note: Cooking Level 15 Needed.
You are close to the big fish now but not quite there. Go to Port Sarim and buy a Fly Fishing Rod, also buy some Feathers or kill chickens to get them. Go to a Fishing Location where you can fish Trout and start the fishing. At level 30 fishing you will be able to catch Salmon which needs level 25 to cook and gives very good experience. This will take a while to get to the next step but keep at it.
<------------------------------------>
Fishing Level 40 to 60
Note: Cooking Level 30 Needed.
You can now fish one of the best fish out there. Lobster, but don't go fishing it just yet. Instead go buy a Harpoon and go fish some Tuna This will get you more faster experience than Lobster for now. When you hit Level 50 fishing you will start to catch Swordfish, I recommend to keep in your bank until your a bit higher in cooking so you won't burn them as much.
<------------------------------------>
Fishing Level 60 to 76/99
Note: Cooking Level 40 Needed.
Now the famous Lobster is at your hands. Go buy a Cage and start fishing them. Not only are they the best fishing and cooking experience at this level buy good money. If you are a Member I recommend to do the Family Crest Quest and get the Cooking Guantlets to reduce the burning percentage of you Lobsters.
<------------------------------------>
Fishing Level 76 to 99
Note: Cooking Level 80 Needed. Member Only Part.
Ok now you can fish Shark I recommend this as a money maker when you can't burn many of these and can catch them very fast. I am only level 79 fishing at this moment so i can't tell much about this.
Note: This is the best way to get to Level 99 Fishing not the fastest. If you do it this way this will teach you about patience and also raise your cooking levels a lot.
<------------------------------------>
VI. Tips
The following items will help you in Fishing.
Boots of Lightness: A Members only item, obtained on The Temple of Ikov quest, these stylish purple boots reduce your Weight by -4 kg. This will help you in run longer between Fishing Locations, Banks, and the Range.
<------------------------------------>
Cooking Guantlets: This Gloves/Guantlets help you burn less Lobster, Swordfish, and Shark. They are a Reward from the Family Crest quest.
<------------------------------------>
Always Cook: This means always cook your food that you fish or even ask a friend if he wants you to cook his fish for free. In a long run you will notice the difference between your cooking and fishing levels if you don't always cook them.

Runescape: fishing xp and guide

Non-Members Runescape Fishing and Cooking Guide
Fishing is one of the most important skills in Runescape. This fishing guide will inform the reader on the best way to train their fishing level and where and which fish to catch.
I decided to write a Runescape Fishing and Cooking Guide because fishing is one of the most profitable activities in Runescape and it was the first real way I made my gold. Cooking is a necessary skill to have when fishing so you can cook what you catch and sell it off.
I understand that the majority of the Runescape community are not members and therefore I will write this guide specifically targeted towards free to play players. This guide is helpful to members as well so feel free to use it. I assume the reader to have around 1000 gold for buying bait and feathers.
Fishing is one of the best skills you can have in Runescape, especially if you're looking to go into the wilderness. Food is in high demand by PvP so it's always easy to sell your catch. Fishing only really becomes profitable at level 40. Level 40 fishing is the key level in which you will start to make large amounts of money because you can fish lobsters. Lobsters are one of the best foods to eat because they heal 12 HP and are quite easy to get a hold of.
Unlike Swordfish, Lobsters will be caught 100% of the time. Swordfish are caught along with tuna, so it can be a slow process having to drop all the tuna because tuna is basically worthless. Swordfish do however heal 14 HP as opposed to the 12 HP which lobsters heal and sell for more, so you can't really go wrong if you choose to fish lobsters or swordfish.
At levels 1-5, you are stuck using the net you were given on tutorial island. Just keep fishing shrimp until you can reach level 5. Once your inventory is full, you should chop down a tree and light a fire so you can cook your shrimp for the cooking experience you will later need to cook lobsters. Drop the cooked and burnt shrimp and repeat the process. Near the altar just south of Port Sarim is a great place to fish for beginners.
Once you are level 5 you can now start fishing using bait and go for sardines. Sardines like shrimp are pretty much useless so you should be cooking them for the experience and then dropping them. Buy a standard fishing rod and around 200 bait from the fishing shop. 200 should be enough for when you will start to use feathers. Keep fishing using this method until level 20.
At level 10 you will be able to fish herring. Cook these too for the experience and then drop them. At level 15 you have the option of bringing your net back out to fish anchovies but in my opinion, it's not really worth it. It is best to just stick with the rods.
You should now be level 20 in fishing. As soon as you reach level 20 go to the fishing shop and by a fly fishing rod and a LOT of feathers. At least 400. If you can't afford 400 or run out of feathers, go to the farm north-east of Lumbridge and kill chickens until you have enough.
It sounds like a lot but it actually shouldn't take that long because when feathers are dropped there are at least 5 (though they only drop around half the time you kill a chicken). You should use your fly fishing rod to catch trout at Lumbridge. At level 25 you have the option of bringing out your standard fishing rod and bait to fish pike, but again, it's not necessary.
In my opinion, stick with fishing trout. At level 30 you will be able to catch salmon. Trout and salmon should both be cooked and dropped. Level 20 to 40 is the longest process so be patient. At level 35 you have the option of buying a harpoon and fishing tuna but I don't recommend it because it's rather slow. Also, remember to use up ALL your bait and feathers before moving onto the next stage so you won't be wasting your gold (you are practically paying for fishing experience).
Once you are level 40, this is the big break. You no longer have to keep buying bait and feathers and instead, all you have to carry around is a lobster pot (buy one from the fishing shop). There is only one place for non-members to fish lobsters and that is at karamaja which unfortunately, costs to travel to. It costs 60 gold for a 2 way trip to karamaja (30 each way). There is no bank at karamaja and there aren't many trees so I suggest you just carry all your lobsters back to Port Sarim, cook them at the range there (drop the burnt ones) and then bank the lobsters at Draynor.
At first, you might burn maybe 1/3 of your lobsters but as your cooking level improves you will burn less. Remember to make your inventory have as much space as possible, while carrying the essentials so you will be able to catch and bank more. Once you reach a goal amount of lobsters (mine is 500), go to Varrock bank and sell them to players from around 200-250 each. This is BIG money and you should have that full rune armour in no-time.
Once you have a fishing level of 50 you have the option of harpooning swordfish at Karamaja. Swordfish heal even more than lobsters and sell for more. There is a big catch however, and that is that you will not only fish swordfish, but fish crappy tuna as well. The process is slow because you will have to drop tuna and then start fishing again. It's really a matter of personal preference. I prefer lobsters myself, and they are generally favored more by everyone else but you can't go wrong either way.
