Fishing Rods

Fishing Rods are a core aspect of  Fishing as well as increasing fishing related Collections.

Fishing rods deal double damage to Sea Creatures.

Reforging

By default, Fishing Rods can have any of the Reforges that Swords can have.

Special Reforges (namely Salty and Treacherous) can be applied with Terry located at Jerry Pond.

Additionally, Fishing Rods can have certain Reforge Stones applied which cannot be applied to other tools/weapons.

Fishing Weapons

In the Spooky Fishing update, a new type of fishing rod was introduced. Fishing Weapons are fishing rods that are meant for combat as well as fishing, and can have sword Enchantments in addition to fishing rod Enchantments. There are currently two Fishing Weapons: the Shredder and the Phantom Rod.

Even though they have the appearance of fishing rods, the Zombie Commander Whip and the Soul Whip are not Fishing Weapons, and cannot have fishing rod Enchantments.
