The best rods aren’t just there for bragging rights but can transform every fishing trip into a lucrative money-making venture whether you’re angling for squid, salmon, sharks, or walleye, allowing you to not just pad your coffers but also earn tons of XP.

While you can conceivably go about trying to get all the rods in the game, the wiser move is to hone in on the fish-catching tools with the most potential, and even then, most are blocked behind astronomic prices or testing unlock requirements, such as reaching a specific level or challenging quests and trials.

To save you from spending your hard earned money on rods you’ll soon regret buying, here are the best fishing rods in Fisch, ranked into a tier list for easy navigation. We also recommend grabbing the latest Fisch codes for a haul of freebies.

S-Tier fishing rods

S-Tier rods are the cream of the crop, boasting the best stats and enviable passives alongside, in a lot of cases, no weight limit. Unless you’ve been hard at work grinding levels and earning big bucks, in which case the Seraphic Rod is the king of rods (and to a lesser extend the Rod of the Zenith), then options like the Ethereal Prism Rod, the Rod of the Depths, the No-Life Rod, and the Trident Rod are reliable picks. For the thriftier among you, the King’s Rod and Mythical Rod are solid substitutes.

A-Tier fishing rods

A-tier rods are basically your second-best options that don’t quite make it into the S-tier. Among them, the Rod of the Eternal King and Summit Rod are strong picks in our book, offering fantastic all-round stats that should cover you for most situations before you can upgrade to an S-tier pick.

B-Tier fishing rods

These are what we’d describe as mediocre, positively mid-game rods that offer decent stats that won’t turn any heads but that you can lean on. The Sunken Rod and Precision Rod are great go-to options, while picks like the Nocturnal Rod (for night fishing) and theReinforced Rod, which doesn’t have a weight limit, are great no-nonsense rods that will serve you well.

C-Tier fishing rods

These are early-to-mid-game rods that respectable for that part of the game, but you should really be looking to invest in a better option as soon as possible. Top of the pile here is the Relic Rod, though any in this tier are reliable early mid-game options.

D-Tier fishing rods

Our D-tier regroups the bottom of the barrel, starter rods available in Fisch. It’s not necessarily that they are innately bad, they are just easily bested by other rods. You’ll start with the Flimsy Rod, then try to graduate to either the Carbon Rod or the Plastic Rod, before eyeing up something like the Stone Rod or Fortune Rod. As a general rule, the sooner you can move past C-tier rods, the better.
