This video is a detailed guide on catching monkfish. It also shows if a ibis helps you catch them faster. Take a look and leave a comment.
Here's a number breakdown for you:
1 Full inventory of Lobbies = 2430 exp.
1 full inventory of Monks = 3240 exp.
1 full inventory of sharks = 2970 exp.
A full inventory of Lobsters can take between 4-10 minutes at low levels, and 3-5 minutes at 70+. Full inventory of Monks can take from 5-8 minutes once you're at level 70+, sharks take anywhere from 15-25 minutes.
Lobster exp per hour equation and explanation: 60/5=12. 12*2430=29,160 | 60 minutes in 1 hour, divided by 5 minutes for full inventory of Lobsters, gives us about 12 trips an hour, times the amount of exp per trip (2430), which gives us 29,160 exp per hour.
Monkfish exp per hour equation and explanation: 60/10=6. 6*3240=19,440 | 60 minutes in 1 hour, divided by 10 minutes for full inventory gives us 6 trips an hour. 6 trips per hour times the amount of exp per trip (3240), is 19,440 exp per hour.
Shark exp per hour equation and explanation: 60/20=3. 3*2970=8910. | 60 minutes in 1 hour, divided by the 20 minutes for a full inventory of sharks, gives us 3 trips an hour, roughly. 3 trips times the amount of exp per trip (2970), is 8910 exp.
You'd need either 137,000 Lobsters, 102,000 monks, or about 110,000 sharks (once you get the level). Numbers breakdown:
Experience and hour breakdown
Lobster Equation | Explanation: 137,000/27=5075. 5075*5=25,375. 25,375/60=423. 423/8=53. | Total number of Lobbies needed for 99 (137k) divided by the amount per trip (27) gives us 5075 trips for 99. The amount of trips (5075) times 5 minutes a trip gives us 25,375 minutes total. 25,375 minutes divided by how many minutes there are in an hour (60) gives us 423 hours. 423 hours divided by about 8 hours a day, gives you 53 days total to get to 99 fishing with Lobsters. (Note: See the market price equation below)
Monkfish Equation | Explanation: 102,000/27=3778. 3778*10=37,780. 37,780/60=630. 630/8=79. | Total number of Monks needed for 99 (102k) divided by the amount per trip (27) gives us 3778 trips for 99. The amount of trips (3778) times 10 minutes a trip gives us 37,780 minutes total. 37,780 minutes divided by how many minutes there are in an hour (60) gives us 630 hours. 630 hours divided by about 8 hours a day, gives you 79 days total to get to 99 fishing with Monkfish. (Note: See the market price equation below)
Sharks Equation | Explanation: 110,000/27=4075. 4075*20=81,500. 81,500/60=1359. 1359/8=170. | Total number of Sharks needed for 99 (110k) divided by the amount per trip (27) gives us 4075 trips for 99. The amount of trips (4075) times 20 minutes a trip gives us 81,500 minutes total. 81,500 minutes divided by how many minutes there are in an hour (60) gives us 1359 hours. 1359 hours divided by about 8 hours a day, gives you 170 days total to get to 99 fishing with Sharks. (Note: See the market price equation below)
Market Price Breakdown
1 lobster is about 125gp on the GE. 1 Monkfish is about 365gp on the GE. 1 Shark is about 975gp on the GE.
137,000*125=17,125,000 (17.1m) ~ Lobbies
102,000*365=37,230,000 (37.25m) ~ Monkfish
110,000*975=107,250,000 (107.25m) ~ Sharks
Now your options are, to spend 170 days (there's currently 229 days left in the year), fishing Sharks, and making over 100m, spend 79 days fishing monks, and making close to 38m, or spending 53 days, and only making 17.1m
