Spirit flakes are a fishing enhancer item received from looting the reward pool after defeating Tempoross. They can be stored in a tackle box.

They are used in Fishing to give a 50% chance of yielding double catch everywhere (with some exceptions), at the cost of one flake per fish caught, although no additional experience is given. This effect stacks with Rada's blessing allowing for an additional 2%-8% chance of catching double the fish, depending on which tier of the Kourend & Kebos Diary the player has completed.^[1]

When using the infernal harpoon with spirit flakes, any extra fish caught has a separate independent chance to be cooked.

Players will always lose a flake per fish caught, regardless of whether they get a single or double catch. Spirit flakes do not increase the rate at which bait is consumed, nor replace the need for other forms of bait. For example, catching trout/salmon via fly fishing will still require feathers in addition to spirit flakes. Non-fish catches (for example, seaweed, leather gloves, and leather boots) and tertiary items such as big fish are also eligible for the spirit flakes' double catch effect.

Spirit flakes cannot activate with only one empty inventory slot remaining as it would not be able to fit a second fish.

1,200 spirit flakes can be exchanged to upgrade a piece of the angler's outfit to its spirit version by talking to Gita Prymes (4,800 spirit flakes for the full set). Additionally 3,000 spirit flakes can be used on the heron pet to change it into the great blue heron.
