Fisch's Northern Expedition Rods: A Complete Guide
Fisch constantly expands its impressive rod collection, with the Northern Expedition update adding six powerful new fishing tools. This guide details how to acquire each of these coveted rods. The Northern Expedition introduces a challenging climb up a treacherous mountain, requiring an Oxygen Tank and regular warming to survive the harsh conditions. But the rewards are well worth the effort!
All Northern Expedition Rods:
- Arctic Rod
- Crystalized Rod
- Ice Warpers Rod
- Avalanche Rod
- Summit Rod
- Heaven's Rod
While some rods offer great stats at a reasonable price, others require completing quests or overcoming significant challenges. The summit holds one of the game's most powerful rods, but obtaining it won't be easy.
Obtaining the Rods:
1. Arctic Rod:
Found at the base camp of the Northern Summit, the Arctic Rod is a readily available option, costing 25,000C$. It boasts impressive stats:

- Luck: 65%
- Control: 0.18
- Resilience: 15%
- Max Kg: 80,000kg
2. Crystalized Rod:
This rod requires a collaborative effort. First, catch two Glass Diamonds (found in Frigid Cavern or Overgrowth Caves). Then, two players must simultaneously stand on pressure plates near some ruins (between the second and third camps), each holding a Glass Diamond. This melts the ice, unlocking the 35,000C$ Crystalized Rod:

- Max Kg: 25,000kg

3. Ice Warpers Rod:
Unlocking the Ice Warpers Rod involves a lever puzzle. Use your lantern to melt the ice covering six levers located at these coordinates:

- X:19601 Y:544 Z:5605
