Lobster Pots

Lobster Pots are used to catch Lobsters inside of 2009scape. They can be purchased from most of the fishing stores like Port Sarim and Catherby. A popular lobster fishing spot is inside of Catherby since there is a range near by to cook them with a bank close by as well.

Yes! Barbarian fishing is in 2009scape, but as of July 2021, it is not completely complete. As of right now we just have the barbarian rod fishing. We do not have barehanded fishing

To get started talk to Otto in his house, there will be a bit of dialogue talking about how you can find the rod underneath his bed. Bring some feathers and a knife with you. In 2009scape, there is 100% chance of offcuts which means you only need one inventory worth of feathers and after that you can use the offcuts as bait. Yes! there is tick manipulation, so if you are into this it is implemented.

Leaping trout require 15 agility, 15 strength and 48 fishing in order to catch them.
Leaping salmon require 30 agility, 30 strength and 58 fishing in order to catch them.
Leaping sturgeon require 45 agility, 45 strength and 70 fishing in order to catch them.
