'''Granite lobster''' is a level 74 [[Summoning]] familiar. It is summoned using a [[granite lobster pouch]]. The granite lobster can be used for the following things:

* [[Combat]]: It has a combat level of 129 and provides [[Defence]] experience when it deals damage. In addition, its scroll, Crushing Claw, may inflict up to 140 life points and temporarily decrease an opponent's Defence by five levels.
* [[Fishing]]: It increases the player's Fishing level by 4. However, this boost is invisible. As with any invisible boost, it does not grant abilities above the player's level (e.g., the ability to catch new kinds of fish). It does, however, increase the success rate of catching fish. Because of its large invisible boost, the granite lobster is fairly popular among fishermen.
* [[Forager]]: While the player is fishing, this familiar can produce [[raw swordfish]] and [[raw shark]]s, even if the player does not have the necessary level to catch these fish. It also gives the player ten percent of the experience for catching the foraged items. It can hold up to 30 of its foraged items in its own inventory. It appears to collect the highest quantity of fish if the player is fishing sharks. One granite lobster often generates 3-13 sharks and 3-13 swordfish, giving 11 xp for each shark and 10 xp for each swordfish foraged.

A '''granite lobster pouch''' is created by using a [[Pouch (Summoning)|Summoning pouch]] on a [[Summoning obelisk]] with 166 [[spirit shards]], a [[crimson charm]] and [[granite]] (any weight) in the player's inventory. Using the pouch to summon a granite lobster costs 8 [[Summoning points]]. Infusing granite lobster pouches is one of the most cost effective ways to 99 [[Summoning]].

==Crushing claw scroll==

===Crushing Claw===
'''Crushing claw''' is the special of the granite lobster, activated by a ''Crushing claw scroll''. It may inflict up to 140 life points of magic damage and temporarily decrease an opponent's [[Defence]] by five levels.

==Trivia==
*If your Granite Lobster generates a fish needed for a daily challenge, it counts towards it.
*One of the conversations with the granite lobster is a reference to the movie [[wikipedia:Conan the Barbarian|Conan the Barbarian]].
*As of 3 March 2010, any kind of granite can be used to create a granite lobster pouch. Before this update, only the 500g unit could be used.
*At level 78 or above, a player can make over 400 of these pouches in one trip. This can be done by going to [[Bogrog]] with 5 kg granite chunks. The player then chisels the granite into pieces, makes pouches, and swap them for shards. It's a good idea to have a Beast of Burden familiar, however, so you can store the larger pieces of granite. Otherwise, they could end up being converted into pouches.
*Excess amount of pouches and scrolls obtained through training can easily be redeemed for money. With 78 summoning, players trade in the pouches and scrolls to Bogrog and sell the shards to the pet store owner in Yanille. Players may also sell the pouches and scrolls in the Grand Exchange as they seem to be in high demand.
