Fishing/Cooking

[Intriguing]

Hey guys.

 

 

 

I've decided to get back into RuneScape pretty soon, and one of my first goals is to go from 85 Fishing and Cooking to 95 Fishing and Cooking.

 

 

 

My initial thought was to fish monkfish. I would need to catch approximately 46,000 monkfish to get 95 Fishing, and cook approximately 37,500 to get 95 Cooking. I could sell the cooked monkfish for around 329gp ea, earning me around 12.3m (it would be less than this due to burning). I could sell the raw monkfish for around 394gp ea, earning me around 3.3m. Taking into account burning, I would imagine I would make about 15m.

 

 

 

I then looked into lobsters. I would have to catch 62,500 lobsters to get 95 Fishing, and cook 45,000 to get 95 cooking. I could sell the cooked lobsters for

 

around 271gp ea, earning me around 12.2m. I could sell the raw lobsters for around 332gp ea, earning me around 5.8m. If I took this route, I would end up with approximately 18m.

 

 

 

My question is, which way would be more beneficial for me? I would make more money with lobsters, but would it take significantly longer (I'm unsure how fast lobsters and monkfish are caught in comparison with one another)? There's also the added bonus of me not burning any lobsters, whereas I would burn some monkfish.

 

 

 

Also, do you think catching 1,000-1,500 fish a day is an achievable goal, and if so, how long would I need to spend on the computer to do so?

 

 

 

Your advice would be much appreciated.

Firstly, stick with Monkfish.

 

Secondly, around 2-2 and a half hours for 1-1.5k Monkfish.

I suggest monkfish. They are more xp per fish and fish faster then lobsters, they are just overall better.

They fish faster than lobsters? Well that's already set then. I was under the impression that lobsters would be faster to catch. Thanks for the help. :)
