Small fishing net (scenery)
The Small fishing net is a type of scenery item found throughout the world of Gielinor in Old School RuneScape (OSRS). It is primarily used for catching fish, specifically shrimp and anchovies, making it a common sight near water bodies such as lakes, rivers, and the ocean.
When a player interacts with a Small fishing net, they can use it in conjunction with a fishing spot. To do this, players must have the appropriate Fishing level—level 1 is required to catch shrimp and level 15 for anchovies. The net itself does not require any special items to use, aside from the player having enough inventory space for any fish caught.
Small fishing nets are typically used together with a fishing rod or simply as a standalone tool for low-level fishing. Players can quickly level up their Fishing skill by repeatedly using the net at fishing spots. The animation for using the net involves the player bending over the water, submerging the net, and then lifting it back up—sometimes with a fish visible in the net, depending on the luck and skill level of the player.
This fishing technique not only provides players with raw fish for cooking but also adds to the game’s immersion, as players can find these nets in various picturesque locations, enhancing the scenic beauty of the game world. You can often find Small fishing nets at popular fishing spots, giving the player an interactive element that feels natural and engaging.
Overall, the Small fishing net serves as a key aspect of the fishing mechanics in OSRS, reflecting the game’s dedication to combining enjoyable gameplay with a richly detailed environment.
