Fishing spot (lava eel)
Fishing Spot (Lava Eel)
The fishing spot for lava eels is located in the Karamja Volcano, specifically at the north-east of the volcano’s base, near the Lava Maze. To fish for lava eels, players must have a fishing level of 34 and require a small fishing net to catch them. Lava eels are a unique fishing resource in Old School RuneScape and are primarily used in several cooking recipes.
Requirements
Location
The fishing spot for lava eels is situated in the Karamja Volcano area, which is accessible by traveling from various points in Gielinor. It is recommended to use the ‘Teleport to Karamja’ spell via the Lunar spellbook for the fastest route or travel via charter ships from Corsair Cove or Port Sarim.
Fishing Mechanics
Lava eels can be caught in quantities of 1-2 per action, with players having a chance to catch them every time they use their small fishing net on the fishing spot. The fishing spot in this location is identical to standard fishing spots, where players can interact by clicking on it after equipping the necessary fishing gear.
Experience Points
Catching a lava eel grants players 70 fishing experience per successful catch, making it a worthwhile activity for those looking to level up their fishing skill while earning a unique item.
Uses
Lava eels can be cooked to create lava eels, which is a food item that restores a modest amount of health. These eels can be used in cooking, providing 2 Hitpoints when consumed. Additionally, lava eels are used in the crafting of firemaking potion when combined with the appropriate ingredients.
Tips
- It is advisable to bring a Varrock teleport for quick access back to a bank after your inventory is full.
- Consider wearing gear that increases your fishing efficiency, like the Fisher outfit, if you have it, for added experience bonuses.
- Keep in mind that catching lava eels also provides opportunities to gain items that can boost your fishing skill or make it easier to fish in other locations.
Notes
- Lava eels are considered a non-renewable resource, as the fishing spot does not respawn and can only support a limited number of players at a time.
- The surrounding area can be dangerous for inexperienced players due to aggressive monsters like the Fire Giants nearby, so be cautious when fishing here.
