The Fish mask is a discontinued item that appeared as a prize from the Squeal of Fortune. When released it was an uncommon reward, but it later was moved to the rare slot. The item was removed from the Squeal of Fortune on 28 September 2012. It is the first and only tradeable cosmetic item from the Squeal of Fortune. The fish mask does not require any stats to wield and is purely decorative. When wearing this mask and fishing, fish will occasionally give the player compliments. Players receive no fishing benefits from this mask. Right-clicking the mask and selecting "Bubbles" allows the player to blow bubbles from the mask for 2 seconds.

Trivia

• When worn, the mouth is open, but when talking with the mask, the mouth moves in the chathead, in a similar fashion to the camel mask.
• The bubble blowing emote is one of the few emotes that can be used while the character is walking or running, the others being the use of a Bubble maker, the yawn emote, Confetti and when ringing a Slayer Bell. However, the emote can also be used while performing other tasks such as teleporting, offering at a POH altar, fishing, cooking, etc.
• Players could also blow bubbles while resting; however, the bubbles remained in the same spot as if the player were standing. This feature is no longer available, but a similar way you could do this is when you teleport and blow the bubbles making the bubbles come out as if you were standing.
• While fishing, player can blow bubbles without interrupting fish catching. However, bubbles won't follow the head up and down, they float still above like in the resting glitch.
• There was a glitch at one point that allowed any free player to claim the mask despite the message appearing. It has since been patched in a hidden update.
• The phrase, "You're gonna need a bigger inventory, _____. " , one of the compliments, is a reference to the movie "Jaws".
• The fish mask, now being unobtainable unless trading with another player or via the Grand Exchange, is considered a new discontinued rare item, despite Jagex's previous strong stance against re-creating similar items to partyhats.
