Money Making Guide 2025: How to Get Rich Fast in Fish It

Making money (coins) is the core progression loop in Fish It. You need money to buy better rods, boats, and unlock new areas. This guide covers the best strategies for 2025, from beginner to endgame.

💰 The Golden Rules of Profit

1. Rarity > Quantity: One Mythic fish can be worth 100x common fish.
2. Weight Matters: Heavier fish sell for more. Upgrade your Rod’s Max Weight stat.
3. Mutations are King: A “Golden” or “Shiny” mutation multiplies the value significantly (up to 8x with Prismatic enchant).

🟢 Early Game (0 - 5,000 Coins)

Goal: Get your first decent rod and boat.

Strategy: The Starter Grind

• Location: Moosewood Island (Spawn).
• Target: Catch everything. Don’t be picky yet.
• Upgrade: Buy the Lucky Rod (250 C$) ASAP. It boosts your luck by 50%, essential for catching Uncommons.
• Tip: Look for “glimmering” ripples in the water. These guarantee higher-rarity fish.

🟡 Mid Game (5,000 - 100,000 Coins)

Goal: Unlock Carbon/Magma Rod and access Volcano.

Strategy: Volcano Farming

Once you have a boat (Small Boat ~7,000 C$), head to Kohana Volcano.

• Location: Kohana Volcano (Lava pools).
• Target:
  • Magma Eel: Uncommon but decent price.
  • Obsidian Salmon: Very common, quick cash.
  • Magma Shark: The jackpot.
• Gear: You need the Magma Rod or Lava Rod to fish in lava.
• Method: Fill your inventory with Obsidian Salmon/Magma Eels and sell in bulk.

Strategy: Event Hunting

Keep an eye on the server chat for “Shark Hunt” or “Meteor Shower”.

• Events boost spawn rates of high-value fish.
• During a Rain event, try to hunt the Orca in the Ocean (needs strong rod).

🔴 Late Game (100,000+ Coins)

Goal: Farming Mythics and Secrets.

Strategy: The Depths & Lost Isle

• Location: The Depths or Lost Isle (requires Scuba Gear).
• Target:
  • Abyssal King: Sells for ~2,500 C$ base.
  • Colossal Squid: ~15,000 C$.
• Gear: King’s Rod, Destiny Rod, or Hazmat Rod.
• Enchantments:
  • Lucky: Increases rarity chance.
  • Midas: Directly increases sell value of fish caught.

Strategy: Mutation Farming

This is the meta for 2025.

1. Enchant: Get Appraiser or Midas on your rod.
2. Bait: Use Truffleworms or Dark Matter Bait.
3. Wait: Fish during “Mutation Surge” server events.
4. Profit: A single Shiny Mythic can sell for 50,000 - 200,000 C$.

🛍️ What to Spend Money On?

Don’t waste cash on cosmetics early on!

1. Rods: Always priority #1.
2. Enchanting: Rerolling for Lucky or Steady is expensive but worth it.
3. Boats: Speed helps you chase events faster.
4. Bait Crates: High-tier bait pays for itself.
