Uldric Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Lobsters can be sold to f2p'ers. That's the only reason that I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenw Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 There are a few reasons i can think of: 1. Burning is an issue, you burn quite a few (around 20% at about 70's cooking) monkfish, where as you dont burn any lobsters at the same level (with cooking gaunts). 2. It's way too far to get there for many people's liking. But i agree, it rules over lobsters anyday, i am my remaining lobsters as topping up food now. 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

WolfhunterXZ Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Quest is annoying, need the high levels. Pretty much agreeing with what everyone else said. :P lol sorry.

Behind_you0 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 It takes 15 mins to get there. Anyway, if you are there, theyre really cool. Here's my blog: restoring it soon | Achieved 99 Crafting Quoting yourself is laaaaame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umega Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Not to mention the place is a long walk to get there. Most people in the fishing guild fish for sharks, because of the money they can get when sold and the sharks heal for 20. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

xXru1n3dXx Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Well I only have about 350 left, so when I run out i'll go fish some more aswell. RS Stats | BF2 Stats | ARSCV | LastFM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmoneyak Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 they awesome training food, but I wouldnt take them to the kq or a duel. I love bringing them on slayer tasks and the like. However Im currently trying to get all my fishing trophys for my crip. After I get my sharky I will go back there and fish for monkfish when I need food.

ghostman Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I fished there for a while, but it is really boring. the guild is much more exciting with people to talk to. Currently P2P. I don't want the world to see me, 'cause I don't think that they'd understand. Formerly known as: Ghstkill8, Serene Ghst, Genius Goats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weasel Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 cause it's hard to get there, when it first came out i stayed there for about a week, didn't move until the next update, but once i left it was hard for me to go back... -= weasel =- rsname: moosewalker ~ top 10000 player :Dfull qp - always willing to chat add me...

chenw Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 monk fish is the kind of fish that you keep for yourself to use really, because superior food already exists and there is a good market for them 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

Sk8erfreak Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I haven't done One Small Favour or Garden of Tranquility... That's why. I will fish monkfish if I ever train fishing again, but that is not likely. 136 Combat, 2290+ Skill Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostya Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Wow, I finished the quest on the first day but never tried fishing them. And wow, I burn only like 7%, they're faster then lobs, give more xp and they heal more. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver-fx Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 they are useless for cooking xp, by the time you get to a leve lthat you are not burning every other one, why not just do sharks? no market for monkfish is why no1 fishes them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craven_Image Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I've gone from 90 - 92 fishing there in less than a week, it's very good experience however not as good as fly fishing in terms of experience but you get much more cash. I'm planning on going all the way to 99 fishing there. 99 Magic, 99 Defence, 99 Strength, 99 Attack, 99 Hitpoints, 99 Fletching, 99 Woodcutting, 99 Firemaking, 99 Thieving, 99 Ranged, 99 Prayer, 99 Cooking, 99 Fishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
