How to Use This Fish It Beginner Guide
Follow this guide step-by-step to progress faster in Fish It. Complete each section in order, use the rod table, and move to new areas only after reaching the listed goals.
Getting Started in Fish It
When first join the game, complete the short tutorial. It teaches you how to fish, buy rods and bait, and sell your catch.
After finishing it, keep fishing until you reach Level 3 to unlock Auto Fishing. This feature makes early grinding much easier.
Next Steps:
- Save 325 coins → buy the Lock Rod
- Save 100 coins → buy Top Water Bait
- Save 300 coins → buy your first boat
Once you have a boat, travel to Kahana Volcano and fish there until you earn 18,000 coins.
Spend it for:
- 15,000 coins → Lucky Rod
- 3,000 coins → Midnight Bait
After this point, your income increases.
Essential Mid-Game Items
Before moving further, buy two critical tools:
- Diving Gear – required to explore underwater areas
- Fishing Radar – required to unlock hidden zones
Both are required for late game, so don’t skip them.
After this, move to Ancient Jungle and continue fishing. You’ll also start working to unlock the Sacred Temple, this is important late game area.

Lost Isle – Ghost Fin Rod Quest
Once you own Diving Gear, travel to Lost Isle.
There are two key areas:
- Treasure Room → Catch 300 Rare/Epic fish
- Statue Room → Catch 3 Mythical fish + 1 Secret fish
You also need 1,000,000 coins.
Completing all requirements rewards you with the Ghost Fin Rod, one of the strongest rods in the game.
While farming these fish, you’ll naturally save enough coins for your next upgrades.
Final Step – Element Rod
After obtaining secret fish from Ancient Jungle and Sacred Temple, go to the Ancient Jungle underground cellar to start the Element Rod quest.
Once completed, you’ll receive the Element Rod — currently the best rod in Fish It.
Should You Enchant Rods?
Enchanting is available in Esoteric Depths.
Early-game enchanting is not recommended, since it relies heavily on luck and consumes resources.
If you choose to enchant, focus only on:
- Astral Rod
- Element Rod
These give the best return for enchant bonuses.
