Learn how to unlock the Gold Rod in Blox Fruits, including the recipe, requirements, and crafting materials to upgrade your fishing.

Blox Fruits’ latest Lightning Update (Update 27.1) added fishing rods to the game, and with that, fishing is one of the most rewarding side activities that players can do right now. You can get your first fishing rod by talking to the new Fisherman NPC.
But the first rod is average. If you want something better, there is one, a gold rod, but to get it, you’ll need to unlock the recipe and craft it using specific crafting materials. In this guide, we will tell you where to find it, the crafting materials required, and if it is worth the grind.
Where To Get the Gold Rod

You can craft the Gold Rod through the Angler NPC, who appears across multiple seas:
- First Sea: Skylands
- Second Sea: Green Zone
- Third Sea: Hydra Island
Currently, many players report that crafting works best in the First Sea, so head there for the best success rate.
