Skill guide description

• 

  Fishing allows you to gather fish at various points across Gielinor. Typically, these will be indicated by moving bubbles on the surface of the water.
• 

  Different fish require different equipment to catch; for instance, you need a fishing net to catch shrimp, but a fishing rod and bait to catch sardines.
• 

  As your Fishing level increases, you'll gain access to more varieties of fish to catch, as well as having a higher chance of successfully catching fish when you try.
