Fisch's Northern Expedition Rods: A Complete Guide
Fisch constantly expands its impressive array of fishing rods, with the Northern Expedition update adding six powerful new options. This guide details how to acquire each of these coveted rods. The Northern Expedition introduces a challenging climb up a treacherous mountain, requiring oxygen tanks and fire to survive the harsh conditions. But the rewards, including these six unique rods, are well worth the effort.
All Northern Expedition Rods:
- Arctic Rod
- Crystalized Rod
- Ice Warpers Rod
- Avalanche Rod
- Summit Rod
- Heaven's Rod
Some rods are readily available, while others demand puzzle-solving and exploration. Let's delve into the specifics:

2. Obtaining the Crystalized Rod:
This rod requires a cooperative effort. First, catch two Glass Diamonds (found in Frigid Cavern or Overgrowth Caves). Then, find another player and proceed to the ruins between the second and third camps.

3. Unlocking the Ice Warpers Rod:
The Ice Warpers Rod is a high-value, relatively inexpensive rod. To unlock it, you must locate and activate six ice-covered levers using a lantern to melt the ice. The levers are located at:
