So, I'm going for 60 fishing. I have 52 currently but will not be able to get on my account for up to two weeks. I need somebody who will carry cooked lobs from Karamja to wherever they want to bring them. And won't forget to come back.

So, you're giving them away? Why don't you just drop them?

Well here's a problem for you, and it comes in the shape of a single phrase; trade limits. You'd need more than one person or you won't be able to constantly trade them.

I think Bling's made clear that it's impossible, plus it's better to post this in the questions section or the Crypt exchange, since you're basically selling something.
Well actually you're slightly wrong there Bling. Your conclusion is correct but your methodology is not. Regardless of how many people you're trading with, you can still only have an imbalance of a certain amount. For free to play players with maximum quest points, I believe this is 10k coins every 15 minutes. You can split this 10k through five trades of an imbalance of 2k or through one trade of 10k. Either way, you can't trade anymore.
If we take the mean price of raw lobsters over the last month - 317coins by our price graphs - and multiply it by 27 - the standard full inventory less the lobster cage - we come out with a value of over 8500 coins. If we take the current value of a raw lobster - 370 coins by our price graph - we come out with a value of almost 10k coins (9900something).
Whilst I'm slightly unsure as to the amount of time taken to fish an inventory of lobsters at 52 fishing, I seem to remember taking about 5 minutes for a load at about 70. Even were that time to be doubled, it still wouldn't be viable with the trade limits unless you're happy wasting an awful lot of time.
