Planned for a members account. Fishing: standard gear. Only single-step recipes are suggested, and the route only switches when another action is at least 10% better. Some actions have no success rate on the wiki, so the route can't compare them.

Profit uses Grand Exchange prices from the OSRS Wiki, averaged over the last 24 hours. It assumes you buy materials and sell what you make straight away, paying the 2% GE tax, and that missed attempts sell for nothing. Bait and feathers are only used when a fish bites. Where the wiki charts a fish by tool or bait, rates are for a regular harpoon, sandworms and no diary. Items with little trading are marked, since one trade can move their price.
