Raw great white sharks can be fished at 80 Fishing with a harpoon. They require 84 Cooking to be cooked into a great white shark and heal 2100 lifepoints each. If you have unlocked the tier 5 prawn perk at the Prawnbroker, you will get a raw great white shark instead of a raw shark half the time when you fish at shark spots.
They can also be fished bare-handed at a Fishing level of 96, a Strength level of 80, and some completion of Barbarian Training for 90 Strength experience. At level 85 Agility, there is a chance to catch two great white sharks at once. Great white sharks give 132 Fishing experience per catch and 212 Cooking experience when cooked.
Unlike a cooked great white shark, a raw great white shark can be used to create great maki and great gunkan at level 84 and 91 Cooking respectively.

Trivia
- Despite technically being a raw shark, a raw great white shark cannot be used to recharge the enchanted lyre. Whether this is intentional or an oversight is unknown.
- Previously, they did not count for Barbarian Shark Daily Challenge. This was amended on 1 June 2015, and great whites now work on both Barbarian and regular shark fishing challenges.
- Catching one of these barehanded at Burgh de Rott counts for the "Fremennik Export" Morytania elite task.
- Despite being collected via the same spots as sharks, these cannot be obtained via Fishing Trawler.
- They are not affected by a Prawn penny nor Prawn pound. This also means they don't consume charges when fished.
