The Fischfest Summer Event in Fisch brings a fresh wave of limited-time content, and the highlight for many players is the special event rods. These rods are not only fun to collect but also come with unique stats and mutation bonuses that can improve your fishing performance.
If you are aiming to complete your summer collection, the Tiki Rod, Floatie Rod, and Beach Ball Rod are the main rewards you should focus on during this event. This guide breaks down exactly how to unlock each rod, along with their requirements and gameplay challenges.

How to Get the Tiki Rod in Fisch
The Tiki Rod is one of the easiest event rods to obtain, but it requires consistency over time.
- To unlock it, you need to log in for 7 consecutive days and participate in the driftwood offering activity at the campfire on Fischfest Island.
- Each day, you will need to throw driftwood into the campfire as part of the progression system.
- To reach the event area, head to Starter Island and use the large purple clam portal that teleports you to Fischfest Island.
- Once you arrive, move along the right shoreline until you find the campfire location. This is where your daily contributions are tracked.
If you do not have driftwood, try using a lower rarity fishing rod to increase your chances of catching it. The key is consistency—missing even one day will reset your progress, so daily login is required if you want to secure the Tiki Rod.
How to Get the Floatie Rod in Fisch
The Floatie Rod is tied to the Sand Castle minigame, which focuses on memory and accuracy.
- To begin, head to the Volleyball Court on Fischfest Island and speak with the Competitive Carter NPC.
- He will assign you the quest required to earn this rod.
- Your objective is to win 5 sandcastle building matches. Each round gives you a sandcastle design that you must memorize and recreate using available building pieces.
- While this sounds simple, the challenge increases as designs become more complex over time.
The good news is that you do not need real players to complete this challenge. You can also face NPC opponents, making it easier to complete solo if needed. Once you finish all required wins, you will receive the Floatie Rod as your reward.
Floatie Rod Showcase and Stats
The Floatie Rod is designed for speed-focused fishing with strong mutation potential. It gives players a 10% chance to trigger the Floatie mutation, making it useful for farming special catches during the event.
It also stands out because of its True Progress Speed bonus, which stacks well with its already high base efficiency. With the right upgrades or relic combinations, this rod becomes a strong mid-to-late event tool. Key stats include high lure speed and solid luck, making it a balanced option for both casual and efficient farming.
- Lure Speed: 80%
- Luck: 140%
- Control: 0.05
- Resilience: 20%
- Max Kg: 5,000kg
How to Get the Beach Ball Rod in Fisch
The Beach Ball Rod is locked behind the Volleyball minigame, which is more competitive compared to the other event challenges. Unlike the sandcastle mode, this activity requires coordination with another player since it cannot be completed with NPCs.
To start, go to the Volleyball area on Fischfest Island and participate in the rally challenge. The goal is to keep the ball in play and reach at least 30 points. Because timing and coordination matter, it is highly recommended to team up with a friend or another active player, or find teammates through community groups. After successfully scoring 30 points or more, return to the Beach Volleyball Referee NPC. She will reward you with the Beach Ball Rod as a completion prize.
Beach Ball Rod Showcase and Stats
The Beach Ball Rod focuses on balanced performance with a slight emphasis on progression speed during catches. It also includes a unique mutation effect that gives players a 10% chance to trigger the Beach Ball mutation.
What makes this rod interesting is its progressive bonus mechanic, where catch progress increases depending on volleyball interactions, giving it a small but useful advantage during extended fishing sessions.
- Lure Speed: 75%
- Luck: 110%
- Control: 0.05
- Resilience: 15%
- Max Kg: 4,000kg
The Fischfest Event rods each offer a different playstyle, from simple daily login progression with the Tiki Rod, to memory-based challenges with the Floatie Rod, and teamwork-focused gameplay with the Beach Ball Rod. Completing all three not only strengthens your fishing setup but also gives you access to limited-time rewards that won’t return after the event ends. Focusing on these early during the event is the best way to avoid missing out, especially since some requirements take multiple days or coordination with other players.
