Catching Silver Roughy in Roblox Fisch isn’t just about casting your line anywhere. You need the right rod, bait, and fishing spot to actually get bites. If you’ve been struggling or wasting time in the wrong places, this guide will clear things up and get you catching Silver Roughy like a pro.
Here’s how to catch Silver Roughy the smart way
First off, your gear has to be spot on. Don’t waste time with beginner rods or fancy setups. Use a mid-game rod like the Rapid Rod (found in Atlantean Storm) or the Reinforced Rod (unlocked through progression). These rods handle Silver Roughy perfectly without needing the top-tier gear. For more about rods and their enchantments, check out All Fisch Enchantments in Roblox Fisch (Full Guide).
For bait, only Shrimp works. Make sure you have Shrimp equipped in your inventory before you cast. Unlike some other fish, Silver Roughy doesn’t need rigs, floats, or shots. Just cast and focus on the minigame when you get a bite.
Location is key. Silver Roughy hangs out in the Collapsed Ruins. To get there, sail to Tidefall, then head south to the entrance at GPS coordinates 3155, -1052, 1261. You’ll need to jump over some rocky ledges to get inside. Once you’re in the Collapsed Ruins, you can fish anywhere there or even explore the backside path to Crowned Ruins for more spots. Avoid early-game zones like Roslit Bay because Silver Roughy won’t be there. For more on exploring Tidefall and its zones, see the Fisch Tidefall Event Guide.
When you’re ready to fish:
- Equip your Rapid or Reinforced Rod and Shrimp bait.
- Sail to Tidefall and enter Collapsed Ruins at GPS 3155, -1052, 1261.
- Cast your line into open water by clicking or scrolling.
- Wait for the bite alert, then play the directional reel minigame. Follow the on-screen prompts: hold left or right keys and spam S or D on PC to keep the tension low.
- Land your Silver Roughy and repeat to farm more.

What about bait and conditions?
Silver Roughy only bites with Shrimp bait: no rigs, no extra bait types like maggots or pellets. Check the in-game Bestiary for exact details: Silver Roughy appears during Autumn, in Clear weather, and during Daytime. If you’re not getting bites, make sure these conditions match. Also, try different spots inside the Ruins or upgrade your rod if needed.
No need to switch rigs or bait based on seasons; Shrimp is always the go-to.
With this setup and location, catching Silver Roughy becomes straightforward. Master the casting and reeling minigame, and you’ll see your catch rate improve quickly. Stick to these tips, and you’ll spend less time waiting and more time landing Silver Roughy.
This approach keeps things simple and effective, so you can enjoy fishing in Roblox Fisch without frustration.
