Fishing Guide
Fishing is a skill where you catch raw fish. You can use the fish in two ways: Cook it or Sell it. Because every fish you catch, is raw and to cook a raw fish, you need the cooking skill. But of course fishing is still quite useful even if you don’t like to cook. You can sell the raw fish in the open market too. Recommended places are: Edgeville, Varrock and other places near the wilderness.

Level 1-10
Just start catching shrimps in Draynor Village until you get to fishing level 10. Cook the shrimps if you want to train your cooking skill as well.
Level 10-25
When you got to level 10 you should start baiting fishing Draynor Village and cook/sell the fish until you get to fishing level 25.
Level 25-50
Now comes maybe the most boring part of fishing. You have to fly-fish until you get to fishing level 50 or higher, because fishing lobsters/tunas at low level could be even more boring. So grab your fly-fishing rod/feathers and start fly-fishing in Draynor, if you want to bank/cook the fish or in Lumbridge if you just want to sell the fish at the General Store.
Level 50-99
Lobsters. Nothing more to say. Lobster is THE fish if you want to train your fishing skill. Karamja is the only place you can train it. I’d recommend taking an axe and a tinderbox with you, if you trained your cooking skill along the way to fishing level 50.

Level 1-10
Just start catching shrimps in Catherby until you get to fishing level 10. Cook the shrimps if you want to train your cooking skill as well.
Level 10-25
When you got to level 10 you should start baiting fishing Catherby and cook/sell the fish until you get to fishing level 25.
Level 25-45
Now it’s fly-fishing time until fishing level 45. Recommended place for fly-fishing is Shilo Village for the fast banking. But if you don’t have access to Shilo Village, then Ardougne River is recommended for cooking/banking the fish and Lumbridge for cooking/selling the fish.
Level 45-55
Big Net fishing highly recommended. Catherby is of course the best place again. For both cooking/banking or cooking/selling the fish.
Level 55-73
Lobsters like the f2p players. Catherby highly recommended. Once you got to level 73, buy a fishing pot and get into the Fishing Guild. You thought Catherby was a good place for fishing? The Fishing Guild is even better!
Level 73-99
Lobster cage your way to level 99 in the Fishing Guild.
