'''Fishing bait''' is used with the [[fishing rod]]. It is used to fish in any fishing spot as long as the spot has the ''Bait Fishing Spot'' option.

When a player has 5 [[Fishing]] he or she can try to fish for [[sardine]]s. When at 10 Fishing, he or she can fish for [[herring]]. A player can fish for [[pike]] at 25 Fishing. At levels 48 / 58 / 70, bait can be used to catch [[Leaping trout]] / [[Leaping salmon]] / [[Leaping sturgeon]], although any type of fishing bait can be used with the [[Barbarian rod]] for these fish (bait, [[feathers]], [[fish offcuts]], [[roe]], [[caviar]]). At 85 Fishing, fishing bait can be used to catch [[cavefish]]. During the [[Heroes Quest]], the player learns how to fish for [[lava eel]].

Each catch uses up one piece of bait, so it is crucial to have several thousand if the player wishes to catch a significant number of fish.

Fishing stores in [[Port Sarim]], [[Catherby]], [[Miscellania]], [[Etceteria]], [[Rellekka]], [[Shilo Village]], [[Lumbridge]] and the [[Fishing Guild]] sell it for 3 coins, with 1000 in stock.

Fishing bait is commonly dropped by [[zombie]]s, [[men]]/[[women]], and many other [[undead]] monsters. Four sets of fishing bait [[spawn]]s around a dead [[troll]] in southern [[Taverley]], south and slightly west of [[Turael]]/[[Spria]].

Fishing bait is also used to feed the second and third growth stages of [[God birds]] ([[Guthix raptor]], [[Saradomin owl]], [[Zamorak hawk]]) and [[Raven]]s, which makes sense, considering that fishing bait is essentially maggots (as found out during the quests [[Let them eat pie]], where the player grinds grain with fishing bait, which results in [[maggoty flour]], and in [[Recipe for Disaster]], where the player uses [[Spice]] on 1 piece of bait to create [[Spicy maggots]]).

Fishing bait can be used with a [[pestle and mortar]] to create [[ground fishing bait]], which is used to feed most pet birds when they are babies.

==Trivia==
*During the [[Recipe for Disaster]] quest and Issue 25 of the God Letters, fishing bait is revealed to be maggots. This explains why decaying zombies and many other undead creatures drop fishing bait.
