I remember the first time I heard about the Ghostfinn Rod in Fish It. My jaw dropped when I learned it has a 610% Luck multiplier – that’s insane! After spending countless hours grinding through the Deep Sea Quest, I’m here to share everything I’ve learned about unlocking this game-changing rod. Trust me, this guide will save you dozens of hours of frustration and get you fishing with the best rods in no time.
The Sisyphus Statue isn’t just another fishing spot – it’s Fish It’s most exclusive hidden chamber and your gateway to the Ghostfinn Rod. Located deep beneath the Lost Isle, this mysterious underwater area serves as the game’s ultimate endgame content hub. Inside, you’ll find three key areas that’ll become your second home:
What makes this location special? It’s the only place where you can catch certain Secret fish like the Robot Kraken, and it’s essential for completing the most challenging quest in Fish It.
I’ll be honest – when I first started this quest, I was intimidated. The requirements seemed impossible: 1 million coins, 300 Rare/Epic fish, 3 Mythic fish, and 1 Secret fish. But there’s something incredibly satisfying about the progression here.
What I love most is how each step teaches you something new about Fish It’s mechanics. By the time I unlocked my Ghostfinn Rod, I wasn’t just better equipped – I was a better player. The journey forced me to learn optimal fishing spots, master bait selection, and understand the game’s luck system inside and out.
The recent “New Fish + Bobber Skins” update made this journey much more accessible, and I’m excited to share how you can take advantage of these changes.
Getting to the Sisyphus Statue requires preparation, but I’ve streamlined the process for you. Here’s exactly what you need to do:
Before anything else, you’ll need 75,000 Coins to purchase Diving Gear from the Fisherman Island Utility Store. This isn’t optional – without it, you’ll run out of air and drown before reaching the statue.
Pro tip: I recommend grinding at Stingray Shores or Ocean spots with your best rod and Aether Bait. You can easily make 10-15k coins per hour with the right setup.
Once you have your Diving Gear, hop in your boat and head to the Lost Isle marker on your map. The journey takes about 2-3 minutes from Fisherman Island.
This is where many players get stuck. At Lost Isle, equip your Diving Gear and dive underwater. Look for a slightly darker area among the coral formations – that’s your entrance. It’s easy to miss, so swim slowly and check your surroundings carefully.
Swim through the entrance, and you’ll find yourself in the hidden chamber. Congratulations! You’re now at the Sisyphus Statue, and the real challenge begins.
The Deep Sea Quest Board lays out four requirements. I’ll break down each one with the strategies that worked for me:
Mythic fish are rare, but the Sisyphus Statue has increased spawn rates. Here’s my proven approach:
Essential Gear:
Strategy: Fish during 2x Luck server events if possible. I caught my three Mythic fish in about 4 hours using this setup. The key is patience – Mythic fish have roughly a 1-2% spawn rate even with optimal gear.
This used to be the biggest bottleneck, but the recent update added lower-tier Secret fish that are much easier to catch. Here are your options at the Sisyphus Statue:
My Secret Fish Strategy: I used the Midnight Rod with Dark Matter Bait and Leprechaun II enchantment. The Robot Kraken took me about 2 hours to catch, which is much better than the 8+ hours it used to take before the update!
This sounds daunting, but it’s actually the most straightforward requirement. The Treasure Room has excellent spawn rates for Rare and Epic fish.
Optimal Setup:
Time Estimate: With good gear, this takes about 6-8 hours. I broke it into 1-hour sessions over a week to avoid burnout.
Bonus: While grinding for Rare/Epic fish, you might also catch:
This accumulates naturally as you complete the other requirements, but here are my fastest money-making methods:
Best Grind Spots:
Pro Tip: Use Aether Bait and fish during 2x Coin events. I earned about 100k coins per hour with this method, so the million coins goal took roughly 10 hours of focused grinding.
While working toward your Ghostfinn Rod, these active codes will give you helpful boosts:
The “New Fish + Bobber Skins” update significantly impacted the Sisyphus Statue experience:
Major Changes:
Why This Matters: These changes reduced the grind time by approximately 40%. What used to take 30+ hours can now be completed in 18-20 hours with optimal play.
