Braydon180, I compared fishing to woodcutting because the "act" of woodcutting and fishing are so similar. You click on a tree and you begin cutting and you just sit back and watch until your inventory is full or the tree goes away. This is exactly the same for fishing. Hunting requires you to set a trap for each and every creature you catch. That's a lot more work and this is reflected in the amount of folks that have higher levels in these skills. Last I checked there were 240,000 folks with level 80+ fishing while there are 65,000 folks with level 80+ hunting. Why? Because hunting requires much more work. Runecrafting drops to 24,000 folks with level 80 or better. Runecrafting is possibly the slowest xp in the entire game and requires a tremendous amount of work (or clicking of your mouse) to get to higher levels. By the time you get to level 91 runecrafting you should be making tons of cash as you have invested a huge amount of time to get there.
No matter what fishing will always be good and easy money.
