'''Raw rocktail''' is a fish that is found in the [[Living Rock Caverns]]. Rocktails require a [[Fishing]] level of 90 or higher to fish and give 380 [[experience]] per catch, which is the most experience obtainable from a single catch of any fish in ''[[RuneScape]]''. The player needs a normal [[fishing rod]] and [[Living minerals]] as bait to catch Rocktails. The Living minerals can be obtained from a living rock protector's/striker's/patriarch's dead remains or they can be bought from the [[Grand Exchange]]. Level 73 [[Mining]] is needed to mine the dead body. The Living Rock Caverns, however, are quite dangerous. Players could be attacked by level 120+ monsters. Fishing in the unofficial worlds for Living Rock Caverns (84, 77, 88) can be safer for an individual by spreading the creatures' attacks out amongst the group. Since [[11 April]] [[2012]] it is possible to get a [[strange rock]] by fishing rocktails.

Fishing rocktails gives approximately {{formatnum:{{#expr:({{GEPrice|Raw rocktail|n}}-{{GEPrice|Living minerals|n}})*100}}}} coins profit per hour with level 99 fishing, assuming about 100 fish are caught per hour.

They require a [[Cooking]] level of 93 to cook and give 225 experience per fish (228 when a [[dwarven army axe]] is wielded after completion of some [[Burthorpe]]/[[Taverley]] tasks). Rocktails stop burning with a Cooking level of 94 while wearing [[cooking gauntlets]], and receive around 270k experience per hour.

==Trivia==
*If you were to start fishing rocktail at level 90 and continue until you hit level 99 you would have to fish {{formatnum:{{#expr: (ceil(7688099/380))}}}} rocktail. You would earn roughly a profit of {{Coins|{{#expr: 20232*{{GEP|Raw rocktail}}}}}}.
*To reach 200M fishing experience from level 90 you would have to fish 512,247 rocktail. You would roughly earn {{Coins|{{#expr: 512247*({{GEP|Raw rocktail}}-{{GEP|Living minerals}}) }}}}, taking into account the loss from minerals, in the process.
