Fish an Anime RNG Fishing Rods Tier List
SSS–F rankings with luck, speed, and strength for every rod.
Fishing rods are the most transparent power spike in Fish an Anime RNG on Roblox. Each rod bundles luck, catch speed, and total strength into one purchase gated by rebirth count and cash cost. Buying the correct rod at each milestone beats raw shop grinding because rods multiply every fishing session until the next tier unlocks.
Use this list alongside the rebirth guide, fishing and ponds guide, and luck upgrades.

Stats sourced from community gameplay testing as of August 2026. Patch notes may adjust values — see August 2026 updates. The 30 August–2 September Admin Abuse listing previews an additional rod; it stays unranked here until live luck, speed, and Rebirth gate are visible in the plaza NPC (event recap).
How to buy fishing rods
- Travel to the plaza Fishing Rods NPC.
- View locked and unlocked rods in the shop UI.
- Meet the rebirth requirement shown on each rod.
- Pay the cash cost from platform income.
- Equip the new rod before your next pond session.
Locked rods gray out until you reach their rebirth gate. Farm rebirths using the rebirth cost table rather than grinding cash without resetting.
Rod priority by account stage
Early game (Rebirth 1–3): Iron → Ice → Amethyst as gates unlock. Prioritize any rod that doubles luck over saving for distant tiers.
Mid game (Rebirth 4–20): Gold → Ruby → Astral. Pair purchases with food leveling on your income carry.
Late game (20+ rebirths): Void Rod → save for Rod of Heaven’s. Activate gem farming after Rebirth 5 so cash and gems fund the final stretch.
Rod of Heaven’s: endgame target
The Rod of Heaven’s sits alone in SSS tier because its luck multiplier dwarfs every other rod. Unlock requirements reported by the community include roughly 150 rebirths and 25 quadrillion cash — a long-term goal, not a week-one purchase.
Treat Heaven’s as a compass: every earlier rod purchase is a stepping stone toward that stat profile.
Mistakes to avoid
- Skipping B/C tiers because they feel boring — luck per cash often peaks in mid tiers.
- Buying a rod without rebirth gate — shop will not allow it; wasted planning time.
- Ignoring speed — luck without casts per minute underperforms.
- Forgoing codes — Cosmic Boxes fund rod savings faster than passive fishing alone.
