Fisch Tier List - All 65+ Rods Ranked
There are now 65+ fishing rods in Fisch, many of which have amazing benefits that players can take advantage of. The recent Tidefall update (v1.67-1.69) introduced some of the most powerful rods in the game, including several that require complex quests and millions of C$ to obtain.
For rods in lower tiers, you could visit the Keeper's Altar with an Enchant Relic and check out which Enchantment is the best for that rod. With the new Rod Upgrading system in Tidefall, you can also enhance certain rods beyond their base stats!
New in v1.69: Disturbance & Hunt Focus Stats
Disturbance: Increases overall hunt spawn chances. Higher values (+1 to +4) make hunts more likely to spawn while fishing.
Hunt Focus: Boosts spawn rates for specific hunt types (e.g., "Pliosaur +2" increases Pliosaur hunt chances). Essential for farming rare hunt fish!
Line Distance: Determines casting range. Most rods have standard range, but some endgame rods feature extended distances (up to 777m!).
