A To-Do List before the Fishing Event
1) Select the fly rod in your inventory that you want to use. Deselecting a fly rod (or not having one at all) will cause the fishing icon to not show.
2) Stand close enough to water so the Fishing Icon shows. Click the lure above the fishing icon to select any lure from your inventory. You can also do this directly from your inventory: find the section of your inventory for Fishing Lure and select the one you would like to use.
3) If you have no lure selected, or your previous lure has fallen apart, the next cast will cue you to select a different lure.
- Fishing Trials wiki page is a great source to figure out good lures and other fishing info!
- Find someone that has a high Fly Tying skill to make your lures and gather up the mats, found at Fly Tying.
- Higher Speed stats make for better fishing, so get your high Speed meals ready.
Helpful things to be a Better fisherman!
Learn how to make better fishing lures at Fishing Lure or ask in chat who can make them for you.

How to Check Your Event Points
Once the event begins, click the Player icon, Player Information, Events...
NOTE: You probably need to catch more than one or two fish to gain points and be an official Participant. Check your points during the event to make sure you have some.
How Points are Accrued
- Most fish counts all fish caught by debens.
- Biggest fish caught is from all types of fish with the highest deben fish.
- Biggest WhateverFish is the largest of that type fish caught by debens.
- Most WhateverFish adds up all the debens of that type fish caught.
Note: The old timey fish (Abdju, Carp, Catfish and Perch) are all the same size and will stack in your inventory. The newer seasonal fish come in a larger range of sizes, and each one is listed individually. More specific lures, times of day/night and locations in Egypt show a high variety of sizes in the newer seasonal fish also.
