Early metallic rod crafting and water casting range
Constructed at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil using 8 Iron Bar or Lead Bar ingots, the Reinforced Fishing Pole provides 15 fishing power. It represents the first metallic rod available in standard world progression, offering a substantial upgrade over the basic Wood Fishing Pole that provides a meager 5% fishing power for anglers.
Stepping stone toward specialized biome fishing rods
With 15 fishing power, this rod reduces junk catch rates and improves the odds of reeling in crates and rare quest fish. It bridges the early angling phase until players can craft biome-specific rods like the Fisher of Souls or Fleshcatcher, or discover a Fiberglass Fishing Pole inside Jungle shrines during surface expeditions. Carrying this pole on daily Angler quests makes completing early tasks noticeably faster.
Trivia
- Can be crafted from either Iron Bars or Lead Bars interchangeably.
- Offers 15 fishing power, tripling the potency of a basic wooden fishing rod.
