Trident Rod Stats and Ability
- Atlantean mutation: each catch has a 30% chance to be Atlantean, which sells for 4x its normal value. The other sources are in the Atlantean mutation guide.
- Slash: on each fish movement there is a 25% chance to stab the fish, stunning it briefly and adding 6% progress. The slash ignores progress-speed penalties, so even evasive fish rarely fight back for long.
- Weak spots: its Lure Speed of +35% is slow, so bites take longer than on most rods at this price, and against high-rarity fish with progress penalties the slashes are less reliable. One of its Mastery tasks (catch 200 Mythical or Legendary fish with it) adds +35% Lure Speed.
- Also needed for: opening the door in Thalassar's Secret, the way to the Thalassar's Ruin rod.
- Mastery: four tasks, each with a reward. Catch 25 Atlantean Captain's Goldfish with it (the Atlantean Pontoon boat), use 120 Seaweed bait (the Poseidon's Light lantern), catch 3 Sea Mines with Crab Cages (125,000 C$ and the Boomer title), and catch 200 Mythical or Legendary fish with it (+35% Lure Speed). Finishing them gives the Golden Trident Rod skin.
Best Enchants for the Trident Rod
- Hasty (+55% lure speed, from an Enchant Relic): the top pick: it makes up for the rod's slow Lure Speed.
- Swift (+30% lure speed, +10% progress speed, from an Enchant Relic): once the Mastery Enhancement (+35% Lure Speed) is unlocked, it adds Progress Speed on top of Lure Speed.
- Herculean (+25,000 kg max weight, +0.2 control, +10% progress speed, from an Exalted Relic): for heavy fish: it lifts the rod's 6,000 kg limit and adds Control.
- Unbreakable (+10,000 kg max weight, +0.1 control, +50 durability, from an Enchant Relic): the cheaper way to lift the weight limit if you have no Exalted Relic.
This is the Fisch Wiki's advice for the rod, which its editors mark as opinion. Every enchantment and how to get its relic is in the Fisch enchantments guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you get the Trident Rod in Fisch?
Buy it for 150,000 C$ at the Tridents Temple in the Desolate Deep. The temple door opens after you complete the Desolate Deep Bestiary and sacrifice 5 Enchant Relics at it. If another player opens the door, it stays open for 1 minute and anyone can go in.
How much does the Trident Rod cost?
150,000 C$. You also need 5 Enchant Relics to open the temple. Merlin sells 5 Enchant Relics together for 48,000 C$, bringing the rod-and-relic total to 198,000 C$. Buying the relics individually at 11,000 C$ each instead brings that total to 205,000 C$.
Where is the Tridents Temple in Fisch?
Deep inside the Desolate Deep, the cave system under the First Sea behind Sunstone Island. Dive in at the buoy north of Sunstone Island (GPS -790, 125, -3100); the rod pedestal is at about -1485, -225, -2195.
Is the Trident Rod free?
No. It costs 150,000 C$ and the temple has to be opened first. It does not lie on the ground and does not respawn.
What is the best enchant for the Trident Rod in Fisch?
Hasty (+55% lure speed), the Fisch Wiki's top pick, because the rod's own Lure Speed is slow. Once you unlock its Mastery Enhancement (+35% Lure Speed), Swift (+30% lure speed, +10% progress speed) is the other choice. For heavier fish, Herculean (+25,000 kg max weight, +0.2 control, +10% progress speed) or the cheaper Unbreakable lift its 6,000 kg limit.
How do you use the Trident Rod in Fisch?
Equip it and fish as usual. The slash works by itself while you reel: on each fish movement there is a 25% chance to stun the fish and add 6% progress. 30% of your catches come out Atlantean. You also need the rod to open the door in Thalassar's Secret.
Does the Trident Rod have a level requirement?
The Fisch Wiki lists none for the rod itself. The temple door is what stands in the way: the Desolate Deep Bestiary and 5 Enchant Relics. Merlin only sells those relics to players above level 30, but Enchant Relics can also be caught anywhere.
Is the Trident Rod worth it?
For the mid-game, often yes: +150% Luck, a 30% chance of the Atlantean mutation (4x), and a slash that stuns fish and adds progress. Its weak point is slow Lure Speed (+35%). You also need it to open the door in Thalassar's Secret for the Thalassar's Ruin rod.
