Dwarves Can't Fish

Speak to either one of the dwarfs near White Wolf Mountain. They'll tell you that they will let you use their tunnel under the mountain, if you earn their trust. They go on to tell you about the Hemenster Fishing Contest. They'll give you a fishing competition pass and tell you to win the trophy.

Gaining Help

Travel to Hemenster, located north of Ardougne. Show Morris your fishing competition pass and he will let you pass. You can try to fish for the contest, but you will always lose. Talk to Grandpa Jack, who is located exactly in a house north-east of Hemenster, and he will tell you the secrets to his fishing ability. He will tell you to always use the spot next to the pipes. He also says that his best bait was red vine worms gained through McGrubor's Wood.

Obtaining the items

You will need to obtain red vine worms to catch the giant carp. If you try and enter the woods through the main entrance, the guards will tell you that it's a private property, and that you can't enter, therefore you will have to enter through another way. Head east of the woods and you will find a hidden entrance. Once inside, you must find the red vine, which is located in the western part. Use your spade with the vine and you will obtain a red worm.

Winning the contest

Once all of the items are obtained (garlic, fishing rod and red worm), go back to Hemenster and enter the contest (you need to pay 5 coins to Bonzo). Use the garlic on the pipe next to the sinister stranger (of the three, the middle pipe). He'll complain about a strong garlic smell, and switch spots with you.

Cast out your rod and you will catch a giant carp. Talk to Bonzo, show him the fish and he will tell you to wait for the time to be over. A few of seconds later the contest will end and you will win. You will be given the fishing trophy.
