Equipment

The cost of equipment varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the Fishing Shops category for inventory.

Rod

All fishing rods are equal. RAISE, WAVE, or PUSH the rod to cast at different lengths. PULL the rod to reel it in.

Line

More expensive fishing line lasts longer. When your line breaks, the lures and bait that tied to it are lost. PULL the spool to remove line, then PUT the line on the rod.

Sinkers

Weights come in two sizes. Tiny weights are for middle depths, while small weights are better for bottom depths. No weight is needed for surface fishing. PUT (verb) the weight on the rod.

Lures

There are three basic types of lures and bait, each type geared toward bottom, mid-depth, or surface fishing. PUT the lure on the rod.

Chests

The rhimar chests preserve the caught fish. Without a chest, the fish goes bad or escapes.

Cooking

Caught fish can be cut into fillets using CUT MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire.

Cooking fires are located:

  • Ta'Illistim: On the west side of Veythorne Manor in the throwing dagger game room.
  • Zul Logoth: In the fishing shop.
  • Beacon Hall Archive: Fireplace in the Common Room. Note that the fireplace is a trash barrel, so PUT MY FISH IN FIRE IN FIRE.
  • House of Paupers: By the pond in the Rose Garden.
  • White Haven: At Ice Pond through the Grand Courtyard.
