How to Fish in Blox Fruits Guide – All Fish You Can Catch
Fishing in Blox Fruits is a brand-new, high-reward activity that gives you EXP, crafting materials, rare fish, treasure chests, and even chances at fruits and recipes in the Lightning Update. It’s a mini-game that rewards patience and upgrades — here’s everything you need to know to start catching the big ones.
Getting started — gear and NPCs

- Talk to the Fisherman NPC (found in each sea) to get your first rod and some starter bait.
- The same NPC offers a fishing level menu and crafts better bait. Later you can unlock stronger rods and special baits via Angler quests.
- Look for the Angler NPC in each sea for timed quests that unlock advanced rods, baits, and fishing recipes.
Basic fishing steps (the mini-game)

- Equip your rod and cast into any water.
- Wait for the bite indicator above your head — react quickly and click to hook.
- Once hooked, a reel bar appears. Keep the fish icon inside the moving box by holding/clicking as needed.
- Don’t let the icon slip out too many times or the fish will escape. Harder/rarer fish fight more aggressively and require better timing.
- Successful catches grant fish, EXP, and sometimes chests or rare drops.
Fishing stats and upgrades
- Casting: Improves chance for perfect casts (helps land rare fish).
- Bait effectiveness: How well your bait attracts/keeps fish — increases as you craft more.
- Lure (reel skill): Improves your ability to hold the icon in the box during the mini-game.
- Fishing level: Raises from catches; rare fish give more XP.
Upgrade these by:
- Completing Angler NPC quests.
- Crafting better bait using materials from seas and sea events.
- Catching many fish to raise your fishing level.
Rods, baits, and scrolls
- Basic rods and baits are free/cheap to start. Advanced rods and special baits are unlocked via Angler quests or bought later.
- Scrolls exist to temporarily buff rods (e.g., increased lure window, faster reel recovery). Use them for farming rare catches.
- Some buffs are “cursed” — powerful but with tradeoffs. Read the scroll description before using.
What you can catch
- Common fish — easy, small EXP, basic materials.
- Rare & Mythical fish — much harder to catch, higher EXP, better rewards, possible fruit/recipe drops.
- Treasure chests — can contain crafting mats, coins, and occasionally rare items.
- Event-specific drops — during Lightning Event and sea events you can get tokens or charged enemies that drop special loot.
Best places and strategy
- Higher seas (Sea 2, Sea 3): better chance at rare fish and event tokens. If you can survive there, fish there.
- Use the right bait for the zone — Angler quests and NPCs hint at which bait works best.
- Stack rod scrolls when hunting a specific rare fish or chest.
- Patience & practice: learn the rhythm of the mini-game — perfect cast + steady reel = success.
Fishing and crafting synergy
- Materials from fishing feed into the campfire crafting system. Use planks to make a campfire, then craft food and potions (loot seeker, lava immunity, berserk elixir, etc.).
- Some recipes are sea-exclusive and only drop from chest/fish in certain areas.
Event fishing — Lightning Event & Summer Gacha
- Lightning Event spawns storm-charged enemies hourly. Kill charged foes to collect Summer Tokens.
- Summer Tokens are used at the Summer Gacha Dealer for limited skins and higher fruit chances.
- Sea 3 yields more tokens per kill — best place if you can handle the enemies.

So, Increase lure and bait effectiveness first if your goal is rare fish. Save valuable scrolls for focused farming sessions. Combine fishing runs with other objectives (explore submerged island, grab event mobs) to maximize time. Fishing is a legit alternative EXP grind — use it if you want to level without combat.
