Fishing Spot (Minnow)
The Fishing Spot (Minnow) is an exclusive fishing location in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) that allows players to catch minnows, a unique type of fish used primarily for training and gaining experience in the Fishing skill. This fishing spot is located in the Abyssal Area, specifically in the southern part of the Fishing Guild.
Requirements
- Players must have a Fishing level of 82 to catch minnows.
- Access to the Fishing Guild is necessary, which requires a completion of the “Fishing Contest” quest.
- Players must equip a heavy fishing rod or be equipped with a Fish-Food to utilize this fishing spot effectively.
Fishing Mechanics
When fishing at this spot, players will use their heavy fishing rod to catch minnows. Players can fish minnows by clicking on the fishing spot, and multiple minnows will be caught per action (around 5-10 depending on various factors). Additionally, players can manage their inventory space effectively, as minnows stack and will take minimal space in the inventory.
Experience Rates
Catching minnows provides players with a considerable experience rate, with an average of 50-70 Fishing experience per catch. This makes it one of the most lucrative fishing methods in the game for training the Fishing skill.
Uses of Minnows
Minnows have versatile uses in OSRS:
- They can be used as bait for training the Fishing skill at various fishing spots.
- Players can use minnows to convert them into sharks or other valuable fish through cooking.
- They are also beneficial for training the Cooking skill as they can be cooked directly for Food.
Tips
- Make sure to have a full inventory and a suitable means of transporting or depositing the minnows you catch.
- Consider using a Fertile Soil (or similar) method to maximize the efficiency of your fishing experience.
- Joining a fishing group or community can also increase the motivation and efficiency of training your Fishing skill.
Conclusion
Fishing Spot (Minnow) is an excellent resource for players looking to efficiently train their Fishing skill while also gathering valuable resources. With high experience rates and multiple uses for the caught minnows, it remains a favorite among players seeking to enhance their skills in OSRS.
