Please Whitelist This Site?

I know everyone hates ads. But please understand that I am providing premium content for free that takes hundreds of hours of time to research and write. If I can't make at least a little bit of money to support my family via this site, I'll have to stop working on it.

One alternative is to become a RuneScoop member. It's cheap, you get access to all of the site with no ads, and you help keep the lights on around here.

If you want to use this site for free, I'd be grateful if you could add RuneScoop to the whitelist for Adblock. To do so, just open the Adblock menu and select "Disable on Runescoop.com". Or go to the Tools menu and select "Adblock Plus Preferences...". Then click "Add Filter..." at the bottom, and add this string: "@@http://*runescoop.com/*". Then just click OK.

Thanks for your understanding!

Sincerely... Qeltar, aka Charles, your hard-working host and RuneScape guide-writer extraordinaire. :)

Method Description, Instructions and Tips for Success

General Description

The value of raw swordfish has risen steadily over the last year, making fishing for it worthwhile, especially at higher levels. Raw tuna is not particularly valuable and you do get more of it than the swordfish, but it is still worth keeping and selling.

Specific Method Details

This is not a particularly good way of making money while fishing for high level players, because the percentage of swordfish remains low even at high Fishing levels. Fishing for monkfish or shark are both better options. Either way, using the granite lobster pouch, if possible, is a definite help in terms of fish output (extra swordfish, and sharks too!)
