Fouis's Guide to 99 Fishing, Cooking, and Firemaking

Dedicated to Fouisgras the rs character. This is how I got to 86 fishing and 99 cooking, until jagex bansticked me for a BS reason. Enjoy the guide and to your prosparity in rs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fishing is the basis for all runescape money made via skills. Many will disagree, but this is my belief. With 99 fishing, one can aquire 99 cooking and much gold. With a time investment, you can achieve anything in runescape with 99 fishing.

NOTE: The calculation of these levels is rough. It all depends on how many you fish you burn, how many salmon you get compared to trout, ect, ect. There is a hidden meaning to this guide though.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
THERE IS 1 GOLDEN RULE. SAVE EVERYTHING. Most of the beginning fish will be saved to gain valuable cooking exp which will save much time and money in the future! Save everything! Including those 39 shrimp from level 1-5!
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Lets start off with level 1- 0exp shall we?
-----------------------------------------

Levels 1-5= Shrimp with a small net. No brainer. I recommend south of Al Kharid Bank as there is a bank very close, and as I say above, you must save everything. You must fish 39 shrimp.

Levels 6-25= Sardines bait fishing with a fishing rod and some bait. Fairly annoying task. 39 Sardines to level 10, at which you will catch 223 Herring using the same method. Probably will be more of a mix between the herring and sardines once you hit level 10. either way it'll be around that number.

26-55= Fly fishing is a must here. I strongly reccommend barbarian village and banking your fish at the edgeville bank to the north. To reach 30 for salmon you'll need 111 trout. After that, you'll need about 3k feathers to be safe. odds are you'll only use like 2.5k of them but you'll be catching a mixture between 2.2k salmon and 3k trout.

56-90= If you want levels and you want them fast, then the only way to go here is LOBSTERS!!! Head down to Catherby and fish lobsters to 68. At 68 you'll make your move to your new perminate home! THE FISHING GUILD!! Where you'll be spending what seems like eternity for the next few weeks. Continue lobsters at the guild until 90. 57,553 lobsters for this baby. GOOD NEWS! When you cook all those, and the stuff before, you'll be around 92 cooking. <3

91-99= In order to finish off this hellish quest you need sharks from 91-99. Only way to do it. I wouldnt suggest sharks before this as the loads take too long and you get more exp faster with lobsters. 69,892 shark. Have fun. GOOD NEWS THOUGH! Once you cook some of those, you now have 99 cooking. And 99 fishing. Congrats. More good news! For level 99 cooking you'll only need around 29k of those sharks, so that leaves you with around 41k sharks left to sell! If you get 900ea for these (easy to sell for 900ea), you now have 36.9mil to use up.

LETS GO GET 99 FIREMAKING EY? EASY LEVEL 99 AND A REALLY COOL CAPE!

Same as before, start level 1, 0 exp
----------------------------------
Levels 1-15= Get off your bum and go cut some regular trees down. Merry christmas, you now have lvl 15 fm. 61 normal logs.

16-30= Same as before, go out and cut 183 oak logs and burn them.

31-45= 535 Willow logs this time. If you have a bit of work ethic in your body go cut them yourself. If not, who cares? You have 36.9mil to use up. Go buy em or something.

46-60= Go buy 1,573 Maple logs. Not like it's gunna burn a hole in your wallet or anything....

61-99= Your home free buddy. Go buy 63,016 yew logs for 290ea NO MORE OR CASTRATE THOSE NOOB MERCHANTS WHO PUSHED THE PRICE! Ahem....uhm yes.. go get 63,016 yew logs for 290ea costing you 18.75mil.


Congrats you have 99 Fishing, Cooking, and Firemaking and 18.15mil left. Go buy yourself a pretty hat or something.

The real reason of this guide is not to show you how to get easy 99's. Partially because there are no easy 99's. It was to show you what the power of a little bit of work ethic can do. If you do this, you've been through hell and back and you can tell people what you've done while they stare in amazement at your capes and your work ethic. Everyone benifits. Money, respect, and a few purdy capes. Enjoy yourself.

 

sick guide bit more detail and bythe way
why get 99 firemaking?

 

thats just one possiblity to use that 39-or whatever mil on. I love the firemaking cape. I think it is beautiful. That's why I chose to make that 99. It's also one of the easiest 99 stats to get, and cheapest.

 

how should we go about getting money to fund this?

 

If you read the guide you would notice you need a total of like 5k, for bait, fishing rod, small net, lobster pot, and harpoon... lmfao.

 

nice guide

 

Thankies much.

 

defenitely nice guide

 

thanks for the guide.

 

Danke viele!

 

nice guild man rate 7.5/10

 

Are you retarded the cheapest go play in traffic or something

 

It is one of the easiest 99s because there is no chance you'll mess up your logs and lose them and not get xp and its not a competetive skill. If you combine the part with firemaking and use wcing to get all that you'll be really rich and 99 skills aren't supposed to be easy but compared to the other skills like combat skills its a hell alot easier so gfo. Anyway nice guide 9/10

 

Don't post on my thread with half a brain.

As to everyone else, thank you very much. And yes, it is one of the cheapest 99 stats thats buyable.

 

Thanks man!!!

 

Nice guide, simple and sweet. 8/10

 

Really bad guide....It's a proven fact that fly fishing at Shilo Village, or fly fishing anywhere is the fastest exp for fishing....

 

Okay, you can go fly fish hundreds of thousands of trout and then cook them. I gaurntee you you'll kill yourself and you wont get that 39 or so mil that you get my way. And 99 cooking will be hell.

 

lol i like this guide =P

to bad lol im just hiring some guy to train my fishing for me ^^

 

Nice guide but it does take forever T.T
