==Walkthrough==
===Dwarves can't fish!===
{{Map|x=2842|y=3486|x:2876,y:3483,desc:[[Austri]]|x:2821,y:3487,desc:[[Vestri]]|plane=0|mapID=0|zoom=1|height=250|width=225|align=right|mtype=pin|caption=This quest can be started from either side of the White Wolf Mountain.}}
To start this quest, go to either of the quest start points adjacent to [[White Wolf Mountain]], as shown in the picture. The western quest start point is closer to the next part of the quest, so it is recommended. Attempt to walk down the stairs in the building and a nearby dwarf will block you from doing so, saying that the tunnel is only for the use of the Mountain Dwarves. (Alternatively, talk to the dwarf and ask about what is down the stairs.)
Ask the dwarf if you could become friends ("If you were my friend I wouldn't mind it" ..."And how am I meant to do that?"). The dwarf will say that he wants you to win the fishing contest in the western town of [[Hemenster]], since the reward for the contest is a coveted gold trophy and dwarves aren't known to be good at angling.
They'll give you a [[fishing pass]] for entry into the contest, before promising you access to the [[White Wolf Tunnel|tunnel shortcut]] underneath the mountain, should you manage to be successful.
===Help from the champion===
{{Needed|A [[spade]]}}
[[File:Fishing Contest - red vine.png|thumb|Checking the vine.]]
*Stop at [[Seers' Village]] and pick up a piece of [[garlic]] in the house south-west of the [[bank]]. It respawns on a table and it will be needed.
*Start heading west toward the north end of McGrubor's Woods. Enter McGrubor's Woods by squeezing through the railing on the northern side, since the southern gate is locked. Once inside, beware of aggressive level 44 [[guard dog]]s.
*Just west of the fairy ring, you will find a red vine. Check the red vine and collect at least 2 [[red vine worm]]s just in case you forget to stash the garlic in the pipe.
'''Note:''' [[fairy ring]] code {{Fairycode|als}} will place you in McGrubor's Woods, and will also complete a medium [[Kandarin diary|Kandarin achievement]].
===Winning the trophy===
{{Needed|A [[fishing pass]], [[fishing rod]], [[garlic]], 10 [[coins]], and 1 [[red vine worm]]}}
Exit [[McGrubor's Wood]] through the loose railing located north-east of the building in the centre. Go south of McGrubor's Wood to [[Hemenster]], located west of the Ranging Guild south of Seers' Village.
*'''(This section can be skipped if you already have a [[fishing rod]].)''' Go talk to [[Grandpa Jack]], who lives in the house nearby on the north side of [[Hemenster]] to buy a fishing rod for 5 [[coins]].
Once there show Morris your [[fishing pass]] and he will let you in.
Put the [[garlic]] into the pipes on the south wall of the north building by the [[Sinister Stranger]]. [[Garlic]] can be found in the house with a quest symbol and cooking range symbol in the centre of [[Seers' Village]]. Pay [[Bonzo]] the contest fee to start the contest (5 coins). The Sinister Stranger will complain about a horrible smell and you will change places with him.
[[File:Fishing Contest - Fishing the giant carp.png|thumb|220px|Fishing next to the pipes.]]
Fish at the spot by the pipes using the [[red vine worm]]s. You will catch a [[raw giant carp|giant carp]], a unique type of fish that you can't catch normally, and that will be the prize winning fish.
Speak to [[Bonzo]] again and hand over the [[raw giant carp|giant carp]]. You will be announced the winner of the Fishing Competition.
After winning the contest and obtaining your [[Fishing trophy|trophy]], head back to the quest starting point on either side of the mountain and give the dwarf your trophy.
'''Congratulations! Quest complete!'''
