Cavefish is a type of fish that can be found in the Living Rock Caverns, located underneath the Dwarven Mine, the Deep Sea Fishing hub or the tunnels of the Warforge Dig Site. Players need 85 Fishing to catch cavefish, and 88 Cooking to cook them. Fishing cavefish yields 300 experience, while cooking yields 214 experience. Players wearing cooking gauntlets will stop burning cavefish at level 94 Cooking.

The minimum Constitution level to receive the full amount of healing from this food is 88.

}

They heal up to 2200 life points, depending on your Constitution level (up to a player's maximum life points) and boost a random combat skill (Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged, or Magic) by 2 points. Cavefish, like most other fish, are consumed in one bite.
