Silly Fun Happy Rod Fisch Guide, How to Obtain!
The Silly Fun Happy Rod is one of the funniest and most chaotic items added in the new clown update in Fisch. This update introduces a full scavenger hunt, a new code that unlocks a skin, and a rod that behaves in the most unpredictable way. If you want to unlock the rod fast without getting lost across the map, this guide will walk you through every step, including all balloon locations and how to finish the final requirement.
What Makes the Silly Fun Happy Rod Special
Before jumping into the steps, here’s what you should know about this rod:
- It plays random sounds every time you cast
- It shakes, spins, and even causes jump scare effects
- It has a special skin called Lime Silly Time
- The rod can trigger strange passives like the Honked mutation
To get the Lime Silly Time skin, you can redeem the code FischmasSoon inside the game. This unlocks the skin instantly once you own the rod.
