How do I enhance my rod?

How do I enhance my rod? - A Woman Protesting with Messages on Band Aids

I'm on chapter 14 now and I'm planning to use Umbra to go back and finish up side quests and max out everyone's skills, but I haven't gotten a single fishing rod upgrade. The last time I tried fishing (in Altissia, chapter 9, I think?), the fish were incredibly strong and if I even managed to catch one, it took about 10-15 minutes of intense angling. Typically, though, they just broke the line if I was a couple seconds late switching directions.

Considering how easy it was to catch fish early on, there's no way catching fish is supposed to be this hard, even if it's late in the game.

Did I miss some side quest to get a better rod? Do I randomly find them? Are they sold in stores? Where do I go/what do I do to get a better fishing rod?



Best Answer

The best reel is won in the colosseum where you bid on monster fights, which is in alltissia. The best rod is won after you do all the fishing quests, I think there is four.

    If you're wondering how you can acquire new rods, the easiest way to do so is to duel other players or participate in championships. Duels become available once you reach rank profile 3. If you'd like to change any of the current perks on your rod, you'll have to use pearls.
