'''Catherby''' is a small [[Pay-to-play|members-only]] fishing town located south-east of [[Camelot]] and west of [[White Wolf Mountain]]. It is the ultimate "go to" town for fishermen of all levels due to the variety of [[fishing]] spots available on its shores. It is also a popular town for [[Woodcutting|woodcutters]], due to the vast amount of [[tree]]s to the west of the town. This town is also recommended for farmers of all levels because of the allotment farming patches north of town, which are close to a bank and a farming shop, and the [[Farming/Patch locations#Fruit_Tree_patches|Fruit tree patch]] immediately to the east of town. There are 2 ranges in Catherby to cook fish and cookable allotments. Catherby is also a convenient place to train Herblore after doing [[Druidic Ritual]]. Limpwurt roots and Tarromin can be planted at a farming level of 26, in order to make strength potions. There are also unicorns for making anti-poison. Vials can be filled with water using the town's sink. Useful objects can be caught with a big net bought from the fishing shop. With level 41 fletching, oysters caught can be chiselled into pearl bolt tips, giving 6.25 fletching experience per shell. [[Seaweed]] can also be caught which is an ingredient for glass blowing. On 28 April 2012 a rift appeared near the Catherby
fishing spot as a teaser for the upcoming Runespan mingame.

To the east of Catherby is [[White Wolf Mountain]]. This area can be deadly to low-level players because level 25 and level 38 [[White wolf|White wolves]] inhabit the area, as well as a level 73 [[Big wolf]]. To the west of Catherby is [[Camelot]] and [[Seers' Village]], and to the south-west is the mighty city of [[East Ardougne]], the capital of [[Kandarin]].

== Catherby Farming Patches ==
The Farming spots in Catherby are a popular spot to train Farming.
To the north of Catherby lies a large patch that is used in [[Farming]]. There are two [[allotment patch]]es for growing vegetables, one [[herb patch]] for growing various herbs used in [[Herblore]] and one [[flower patch]] for growing flowers to help protect other produce. Wandering nearby is, as usual, a handy [[Tool Leprechaun]]. If the [[compost bin]] is full or rotting, the nearby farming store is handy for selling low-level crops.

There is also a [[Fruit tree patch]] located south-east of Catherby near White Wolf Mountain. Here you can grow your own Fruit Trees. [[Ellena]] will look after your tree for a fee.

=== Dantaera ===
{{main|Dantaera}}

'''Dantaera''' is the master farmer of the Catherby farming patches. She will happily look after your crops for you for a fee. She also runs a small farming shop.

==White Wolf Mountain Agility Grapple Shortcut==
Near the fruit tree patch on the shores of Catherby is an [[Agility]] shortcut which allows you to grapple up a small cliff. To use this shortcut you need a [[mithril grapple]] and level 35 [[Ranging]], level 32 [[Agility]] and level 35 [[Strength]]. You also need to have completed the [[Fishing Contest]] quest. You cannot grapple back down however.

==Taverley Dungeon To Catherby Agility Grapple Shortcut==
South of the Catherby fishing spots on the shore is another [[Agility]] Shortcut. This shortcut allows you to grapple across from the [[Water Obelisk Island]] to the shores of Catherby. To use this shortcut you need a [[mithril grapple]] and level 29 [[Ranging]], level 36 [[Agility]] and level 22 [[Strength]]. However, you cannot go back from this agility shortcut. Once you come from the ladder leading from the [[Black Dragon]] spawn, you have to go back through the [[Taverly Dungeon]] again and repeat.

==Catherby Shore Fishing Spots==
An abundance of fishing areas in ''RuneScape'' for players with lower than Level 68 [[Fishing]] exists close to the east side of the town's bank. There are 2 Net/Bait spots, 2 Cage/Harpoon spots, and 3 Net/Harpoon spots, allowing you to use fishing equipment such as Small Nets, Big Nets, Harpoons and Lobster Pots to catch almost any type of fish; however, [[Monkfish]], Manta Rays, and Sea Turtles are unattainable here. It is often crowded with fishers, mostly catching Lobsters, Swordfish and Sharks. Bots however are often in this spot, so you might have a hard time getting what you need.
*Catherby is a great place to feed your kitten/cat raw fish to help age it. [[File:CatherbyFishingSpot.png|thumb|Players at the Catherby fishing spots.]]

==The Houses Of Catherby==
[[File:Catherbyrange3.png|thumb|250px|right|The range in Catherby is a popular place for the fishers nearby to cook their fish.]]
In the small two-story house directly south of the farming patch is an [[insect repellent]] [[spawn]]. This is used during the [[Merlin's Crystal]] Quest. Upstairs in this house is a [[jug of wine]] spawn, as well as what appears to be a [[Saradomin]] rug on the floor.

To the east of this house is another house. This house belongs to a man named [[Caleb]], whom players meet during the [[Family Crest]] quest. Inside his house is a [[range]] and [[sink]]. There are also [[pie dish]], [[burnt fish]], [[jug of water]], [[knife]] and [[bucket of water]] spawns in his house.

To the east of Caleb's house is another house, containing three strange chests that are locked up in a cage, there is a bank table in the house, bringing up the possibility of the building being a bank.

There is a house to the east of the bank with a range. This range is often used for cooking what you have fished for as it is very close to a [[bank]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Fishing store hole.png|thumb|right|The hole in the store.]]
*A banker in Catherby bank used to be standing two places behind a closed bank booth. It was not possible to access this banker. The banker was removed with the Branches of Darkmeyer quest update.
*A bank booth in Catherby bank used to miss a banker standing behind it. This bug has been fixed.
* The time on the clock in Catherby's bank, 10:04, is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Back to the Future|Back to the Future]], as stated by [[Jagex Moderator|Mod Srowley]].
* From a week before the release of the quest "[[The Hunt for Red Raktuber]]" and then forth, you can see a [[submarine]]'s periscope peeping through the water, which is most likely the Penguin submarine from the quest.[[File:Fishing store hole 2.png|thumb|right|The hole in the roof.]]
*For a time after 5 September 2009, the roof and floor of the Fishing store in Catherby appeared to have sunken into a huge hole. This has now been fixed by Jagex.
*In a hidden update, the music tracks [[Stillwater]], [[Saltwater]], [[Freshwater]] [[Mellow]], [[Waterfall (music track)|Waterfall]], [[Voyage]] and [[Fruits de Mer]] now play in the town. Before, [[Fishing (music track)]] played in [[Seers' Village]].
