Best Fisch Rods to Wish for in the Skycrest Update

The Skycrest update brings the second part of the Fischfest 2 update in Fisch. While the update itself is worth checking out, the highlight is the rod wish. Yes, just like Fischmas, you can pick one of your favorite Fisch rods during the event and get it for absolutely free. In this guide, we will suggest the best Fisch rods to wish for during the Skycrest update.

Best Fisch Rods to Wish for in Skycrest Update

If you are familiar with our Fischmas coverage from last year, you may remember that we suggested the best rods to wish for from Santa. Those recommendations made sense at the time, but Fisch has come a long way since then. That is why our picks for the Skycrest update look very different.

With all that in mind, after grabbing the Fisch codes for this update, check the best rods to wish for in Skycrest “Wish of the Sky”:

1. MiguRod

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 427% Luck: 237% Control: 0.101 Resilience: -185% Max Kg: infkg	40.1% chance for Supersonic (8.01x) Grants +31% Progress at the start of the minigame

MiguRod is one of the best rods to wish for if your main goal is making money. Its 427 percent lure speed and 237 percent luck make it a strong catch rod, while its infinite weight capacity lets it handle any fish. It also has a unique use as a relic rod, especially when paired with the Scavenger enchantment.

Its passive makes catching fish even faster, with a 40.1 percent chance for Supersonic and an instant 31 percent progress boost at the start of the minigame. The awful resilience is the main drawback, but its money-making and scavenging uses make MiguRod a very valuable wish.

2. Astraeus Serenade

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 100% Luck: 300% Control: 0.3 Resilience: 20% Max Kg: infkg	+50% Progress Speed 15% Astraeus, 10% Serene, 8% Celestial, 8% Breezed, 8% Nova mutation chances 10% chance to instantly fill the progress bar Flurry of Stars grants up to +30% Progress

Astraeus Serenade rod in Fisch is a strong all-purpose rod with 300 percent luck, 30 percent control, and infinite weight capacity. It is already a good choice for catching difficult fish and making money, while its upcoming buff should make it even more appealing for anyone looking to future-proof their wish.

The passive is where Astraeus Serenade really stands out. It gives 50 percent Progress Speed, several valuable mutation chances, and a chance to instantly fill the progress bar. Its Flurry of Stars can also add another 30 percent progress during normal use, with even more during Starfall.

3. Astralhook Rod

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 100% Luck: 200% Control: 0.2 Resilience: 20% Max Kg: infkg	+15% Progress Speed Stars fall every 2 to 4 seconds, granting +15% Progress Additional mutation and Enchanted Pool effects

Astralhook Rod in Fisch is a solid all around option for the Skycrest update wish. It comes with 200 percent luck, 20 percent control, and 20 percent resilience. The stats are good enough for regular fishing, while its passive gives it a particularly useful role when catching difficult and progress-locked fish.

The rod’s passive is the main reason to consider it. Stars periodically add 15 percent progress, while the rod also gains 15 percent Progress Speed and has effects that can increase the value of your catches. It is a good rod for anyone who wants something useful without relying entirely on raw stats.

4. Noiseform

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 125% Luck: 290% Control: 0 Resilience: 65% Max Kg: infkg	+22% Weight Boost 35% Soultorn (8.5x) 25% Flowed (6.5x) +15% Progress Speed +7% Forced Progress Speed 35% chance to gain an additional Soultorn fish (1.85x Weight Boost)

Noiseform is one of the most useful and ridiculously good-looking rods in Fisch. It has 290 percent luck, 65 percent resilience, infinite weight capacity, and strong passive effects that make it a viable money-making rod.

The passive gives Noiseform even more value through its 22 percent weight boost, valuable Soultorn and Flowed mutations, and extra Progress Speed. Every catch also has a 35 percent chance to give you another Soultorn fish, making this rod particularly good for building up your earnings. And if you are a fan of completing mastery progression, this one has an amazing skin in store for you.

5. Remembrance

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 100% Luck: 300% Control: -0.1 Resilience: 20% Max Kg: infkg	Living: 50% Fluttering (7x), +7% Shiny/Sparkling chance Departed: 50% Departed (10.5x), +15% Progress Speed, +15% True Progress Speed

Remembrance remains a strong choice for anyone looking for a rod that can handle both money-making and regular catches. Its 300 percent luck and infinite weight capacity give it the raw stats needed to catch valuable fish, although the negative control means it takes some getting used to.

The Living and Departed modes give Remembrance two different uses. Living mode focuses on Fluttering fish and Shiny or Sparkling chances, while Departed mode adds a 10.5x mutation, Progress Speed, and True Progress Speed. That flexibility makes it one of the more useful rods to keep in your collection.

6. Rod of the Cosmos

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 50% Luck: 135% Control: 0.1 Resilience: 10% Max Kg: 10,000kg	15% Nova (6x) During Starfall: 2% Cosmic Relic chance and +50% Progress Speed 0.1% Cosmic Relic chance normally

Rod of the Cosmos is not a rod you pick for general money-making. Its value comes from one very specific job: getting Cosmic Relics in Fisch. That makes it worth considering if you do not want to use Stellarwave or simply want a dedicated rod for macroing Cosmic Relics.

During Starfall, the rod gets a 2 percent chance to reel in a Cosmic Relic alongside a 50 percent Progress Speed boost. It also has a small 0.1 percent Cosmic Relic chance outside Starfall, giving it a niche that very few other rods can fill.

7. Wingripper

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 222% Luck: 222% Control: 0.22 Resilience: 22% Max Kg: infkg	Day: +22% Progress Speed, 27% Diurnal (7x) Night: +222% Progress Speed, 7% Nocturnal (8x) Night also sets base Control to -0.28

Wingripper is essentially built around fishing during the nighttime, and if that is what you prefer, this is the best rod to wish for in the Skycrest update in Fisch. Its 222 percent lure speed and luck are already respectable, but the rod becomes much more interesting once its day and night passives come into play.

At night, Wingripper gets a ridiculous 222 percent Progress Speed boost and a chance for the valuable Nocturnal mutation. The catch is its control drops to -0.28, making the minigame extremely difficult. If you can handle that drawback, Wingripper can be a monster for nighttime fishing.

Wingkeeper is the daytime counterpart to Wingripper and is a decent pick if you want to complete the collection. Its 222 percent luck, 33 percent resilience, and infinite weight capacity give it a balanced set of stats, while its passive makes it especially strong during the day.

8. Leprechaun Line

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 55% Luck: 350% Control: 0 Resilience: 14% Max Kg: 14,000kg	10% Lucky Gold (6.14x)1% chance for a Four Leaf Clover Lucky Gold grants +1x Server Luck for 45 seconds, up to 8x Server Luck

There are only two words you need to know when it comes to the Leprechaun Line: Server Luck. Its base stats are nothing special, but the rod has a massive 350 percent luck stat and a unique passive that can directly increase Server Luck.

Every Lucky Gold catch can grant another 1x Server Luck for 45 seconds, stacking up to 8x Server Luck. That makes the rod far more useful to an entire server than its basic stats suggest. If you care about Server Luck, this is an easy wishlist pick.

9. Castbound

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: inf Luck: 390% Control: 0.14 Resilience: 32% Max Kg: infkg	+15% XP from all fish 50% chance for an additional fish with Cosmos, Nebula, Energy, or Fury mutations Slash passive deals 5% Progress every 0.8 seconds

Castbound is a stupid rod in the best possible way. It has infinite lure speed, 390 percent luck, infinite weight capacity, and a minigame that gets increasingly strange as you keep a Perfect Catch going.

Its passive is where the rod earns its place on this wishlist. You have a 50 percent chance to gain another fish with one of four valuable mutations, while the slash mechanic repeatedly adds progress during the minigame. The mutation pool alone makes Castbound a very strong money-making option, and the unusual minigame gives it plenty of value beyond its stats.

10. Electric Guitar

Stats	Passive
Lure Speed: 444% Luck: 244% Control: 0.14 Resilience: 44% Max Kg: 444,444,444kg	16.7% chance to grant +75% Progress at the start of the minigame No built-in mutation

Electric Guitar is the wildcard of the list. Its stats are still excellent, with 444 percent lure speed, 244 percent luck, 44 percent resilience, and an absurd 444,444,444 kg weight limit. You can also fish Noxious, Brine, and Lava pools while using this rod.

The real reason to wish for it is the lack of a built-in mutation. That gives you more freedom when choosing an enchantment in Fisch because you can use the enchantment to determine the mutation you want. It also has a 16.7 percent chance to start the minigame with 75 percent progress, giving it a useful burst of speed on top of those already strong stats.

All Eligible Fisch Rods to Wish for in Skycrest Update

We are considering the current and future meta, so the best Fisch rods to wish for in the Skycrest update are not limited to the update. So, even if you pick the best Fisch rods in this update, they will be your primary pick for a long time.

We mainly suggest rods that help you make money. But on top of that, you should have the rods that help with catching secret and special fish in Fisch as well. We recommend that you don’t grab permanent rods, as their quests are still achievable. Moreover, gimmick, troll, or obtainable limited rods are also something you should avoid.

So, which of the best rods for the Fisch Skycrest update are you picking up from “Wish of the Sky”? Let us know in the comments.
