Raw wobbegong is a fish that may be caught and found washed ashore on Uncharted Isles. Wobbegongs require level 96 Fishing to catch, giving 682.5 experience each.

Two raw wobbegongs can be cooked to produce wobbegong oil, requiring level 96 Cooking, and granting 240 Cooking experience if successful. Burning wobbegongs produces burnt wobbegongs. It is highly recommended to cook wobbegongs at the grill in Waiko or a Portable Range for the chance to double obtained oils where both methods have the same chance to double.

Raw wobbegongs may be sold to the Fish Oil Sales shop in Waiko for 3 chimes each.

A wobbegong fishing spot will yield 100 raw wobbegongs before depleting for the day. When a wobbegong fishing spot is depleted, a filterable message reads: The fishing spot has been exhausted for today. The wobbegongs are wobbegone.

Players can expect to gain an experience rate equivalent to 137,000 Fishing experience and 1,200 chimes an hour without the aid of experience boosting sets or equipment. Using a fishing outfit, fury shark outfit with 7% catch boost, shark's tooth necklace, crystal fishing rod with Honed 5 and Furnace 3 perks and perfect juju fishing potion grants 214,000 experience and 1,640 chimes an hour.

Boosts

• Fishing boosts such as the Call of the sea aura, Fury shark outfit, and Invention perks will affect the rate players catch wobbegongs.
• Dwarven fish extractors and the Fish Flingers extra fish buff will allow players to catch two wobbegongs at once. However, players are still only allowed to collect 100 wobbegong total from a fishing spot.
• Wearing a shark's tooth necklace while fishing wobbegongs will award players with an additional 5% Fishing experience.
• Fishing with an augmented rod with the Fortune perk on it will allow extra wobbegongs to be caught that will go over the 100 wobbegong limit for a fishing spot.

Trivia

There are rare sharks swimming in the shallow sea.

• Wobbegongs in the real world are bottom dwelling sharks, as opposed to their in-game model, which resembles a mackerel shark. The examine text refers to the barbels on the sides of the wobbegong's head.
• Wobbegongs, along with tarpons, seerfish, and sillagos were the first fish to be visible in fishing spots prior to being caught.
• Wobbegongs can be spotted near the dock on Whale's Maw (simply labelled as "Sharks"), but cannot be caught. Their examine text is "Doo doo duh dee doo (Wobbegong). Doo doo duh dee doo (Wobbegong).", a reference to the song "Mah Nà Mah Nà".
• When fishing for wobbegongs, the player is shown using a standard fishing rod and animation, regardless of currently equipped fishing equipment or any selected animation overrides.
• The message given on depleting a wobbegong fishing spot is a pun on the word woebegone.
• There used to be a glitch where a player could catch an infinite amount of wobbegongs from one spot, this was achievable by using the consume option on the shark outfit. A player wouldn't receive items, but they would still be able to gain experience. This was fixed in the second Arc batch.
• Despite having the word "raw" in its name, cooking raw wobbegongs does not yield cooked wobbegongs but wobbegong oil instead.
