Catching the Anchor in Fisch is not about fishing with your rod. It’s a special mythical turf item you can only get from Crab Cages placed in Tidefall waters. Many players get confused thinking they need to fish it like a regular catch, but that’s not how it works.
Here’s a quick answer: You need to go to Tidefall, place multiple Crab Cages in the water, and wait for the Anchor to drop randomly. No fishing rod required. Just check your cages regularly by pressing E and collect the Anchor when it appears.
Here’s how you get the Anchor step by step
First, you have to travel to the Tidefall region in Fisch. This is the only place where the Anchor drops. Once you’re there, you’ll need Crab Cages. These are bait traps you place in the water, and unlike fishing rods, you don’t actively fish with them. Note: Reinforced Crab Cages are recommended for faster results and higher capacity (e.g., multiple drops at once), as shown in recent guides.
Place several Crab Cages in the water at once. The more cages you set, the better your chances of getting the Anchor faster. Then, just wait patiently. The Anchor drops randomly from these cages, so it might take some time. Make sure to check your cages regularly by pressing E to collect whatever they catch.
When you finally get the Anchor, don’t sell it. It’s a key item used for crafting the Anchor n’ Chain Rod at the Ancient Archive. To craft it, you’ll need:
- 1 Anchor
- 10 Scrap Metal (fished in the Depths, specifically Vertigo)
- 5,000 C$
There’s also a quest involving the Anchor. You can give one to Diver Terry in Tidefall to earn 1 Tide Essence and 25,000 XP.
The Anchor n’ Chain Rod you craft with the Anchor has some cool perks. It has a 12-meter line length, -100% lure speed penalty (very slow reeling; pair with Hasty enchant to counteract), and a Rusty mutation that decreases progress speed by 25% and reduces fish value to 0.7x. However, it instantly gives you two different fish per catch.
Remember, you cannot catch the Anchor by fishing with a rod anywhere. It only comes from Crab Cages in Tidefall. So don’t waste time trying to fish it out normally.
The grind can be a bit slow, but using multiple cages at once really helps speed things up. Stay patient and keep checking your cages.
In short, focus on setting Crab Cages in Tidefall, keep an eye on them, and collect the Anchor when it drops. Then use it for crafting or quests. That’s the straightforward way to get this rare item.
This method keeps your fishing game smooth and lets you unlock some of the best gear Fisch has to offer.
