The Roblox Fisch Fischmas update is the game’s massive holiday event that transforms the world into a winter wonderland packed with exclusive content. Having played through every Fischmas event since the game’s early days, I can confidently say this year’s version blows previous iterations out of the water.
The event officially kicked off on December 13, 2025, introducing players to a sprawling new adventure featuring the treacherous Glacial Ridge, the nostalgic Winter Village, and the mysterious Frost Moon weather phenomenon. What makes this update special is how it seamlessly blends exploration, fishing progression, and community collaboration into one cohesive experience.
I’ll be honest – I wasn’t immediately sold on this year’s Fischmas event when I first jumped in. The starting area felt overwhelming, and I spent way too much time falling through the ice in Glacial Ridge (pro tip: those ice platforms break faster than you’d think!). But once I got my bearings and boarded the Magic Train at Moosewood, everything clicked into place.
What really hooked me was the sheer variety of activities. One moment I’m carefully navigating fragile ice platforms to reach hidden igloos, the next I’m hunting for the elusive Frost Moon weather event to unlock secret mechanisms in Northstar Castle. The developers have absolutely outdone themselves with the attention to detail – from the festive decorations to the clever quest design that actually makes me care about helping Santa find his missing elves.
Getting started with the Fischmas event is straightforward, but I learned a few tricks the hard way that I’ll share with you:
Step 1: Head to Moosewood – The Magic Train appears on the southern shore of Moosewood, right where the Trading Plaza NPC usually hangs out. You can’t miss it – it’s literally glowing with festive energy.
Step 2: Board the Magic Train – This isn’t just any train ride. The Magic Train serves as your gateway to all Fischmas areas, starting with Glacial Ridge. I recommend taking a moment to explore the train itself – there are some hidden details that seasoned players will appreciate.
Step 3: Survive the Freezing Waters – This is where many players (including myself initially) meet an icy demise. The water here will kill you in seconds, regardless of what you’re wearing. The ice platforms break quickly, so move fast but deliberately. I found that counting to three between jumps helped me maintain a steady rhythm.
Step 4: Reach Glacial Ridge – Once you cross the Freezing Waters, you’ll arrive in Glacial Ridge. This area is packed with secrets, including three igloos and ten snowmen NPCs scattered throughout. The coordinates can be tricky, but I’ve marked the key locations in my personal fishing journal.
One of the most rewarding aspects of this event is completing the Fischmas 2 Bestiary with all 29 exclusive fish. After spending countless hours fishing in every corner of the event area, I’ve compiled the complete list with optimal catching strategies:
| Fish Name | Bait Required | Best Time | Weather | My Personal Tips |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bauble Bass | None | Any | Clear | Common near the village entrance |
| Bellfin | None | Any | Clear | Schools together in groups of 3-5 |
| Candy Cane | None | Any | Clear | Look for the candy cane fishing spots |
| Candy Cane Cod | None | Any | Clear | Deeper waters near the castle |
| Carol Carp | None | Any | Clear | Active during NPC quest hours |
| Cryoshock Serpent | None | Any | Clear | Rare spawn near Frost Moon totems |
| Elf Eel | None | Any | Clear | Hides in rocky underwater areas |
| Festive Relic | None | Any | Clear | Actually an item, not a fish! |
| Fruitcake Flounder | None | Any | Clear | Bottom-dweller, use deep fishing techniques |
| Gingerbread Man | None | Any | Clear | Surprisingly fast, be ready for quick reeling |
| Glass of Eggnog | None | Any | Clear | Surface skimmer, use top-water techniques |
| Holly Haddock | None | Any | Clear | Prefers areas with underwater vegetation |
| Hot Cocoa | None | Any | Clear | Warm water spots near geysers |
| Jolly Bait Crate | Magnet | Any | Clear | Use magnet bait for best results |
| Merry Manta Ray | None | Any | Clear | Large open water areas |
| Mistletoe Minnow | None | Any | Clear | Small but valuable for quests |
| Northstar Whale | None | Any | Clear | Rare, spawns during specific times |
| Nutcracker Catfish | None | Any | Clear | Bottom feeder, use weighted bait |
| Ornament Pufferfish | None | Any | Clear | Inflates when hooked, fight carefully |
| Peppermint Pike | None | Any | Clear | Fast and aggressive, use strong gear |
| Present | Magnet | Any | Clear | Contains random rewards when caught |
| Reindeer Ray | None | Any | Clear | Seasonal migration patterns |
| Santa Whale Shark | None | Any | Clear | The rarest fish in the event |
| Santa’s Present | Magnet | Any | Clear | Better rewards than regular presents |
| Snowball | None | Any | Clear | Common, but needed for quests |
| Snowy Present | Magnet | Any | Clear | Winter-exclusive variant |
| Stockingfish | None | Any | Clear | Fills up quickly, easy to catch |
| Tinsel Trout | None | Any | Clear | Shiny scales reflect light beautifully |
| Wreath Wrasse | None | Any | Clear | Circular swimming patterns |
Pro Tip: All Fischmas fish require Winter season and Clear weather, so plan your fishing sessions accordingly. I found that using Magnet bait significantly increases your chances of catching the present-type fish, which contain valuable rewards.
One of the most exciting features of this year’s event is Santa’s offer to craft any one fishing rod for free. This is a permanent choice, so you want to make it count. After testing dozens of rods and analyzing their performance, here are my top recommendations:
Stats: Lure Speed: 100% | Luck: 400% | Control: 0.4 | Resilience: 40% | Max Kg: Infinite
This is hands-down the best rod you can wish for, and here’s why: The combination of 400% luck with multiple mutation chances makes it incredibly versatile. I’ve caught more rare fish with this rod than any other, and the shiny rate boost is no joke. During my testing sessions, I consistently caught 2-3 shiny fish per hour, which is unheard of with most other rods.
Stats: Lure Speed: 100% | Luck: 200% | Control: 0.2 | Resilience: 20% | Max Kg: Infinite
If you’re focused on making money (and let’s be honest, who isn’t?), the Astralhook is your best bet. The star drops that speed up catches are game-changing, and every 12th catch triggers an Enchanted Pool that boosts everyone’s fishing. I made over 100,000 coins in a single session using this rod during a pool event.
Stats: Lure Speed: 100% | Luck: 150% | Control: 0 | Resilience: 100% | Max Kg: Infinite
For players who struggle with losing fish, the Chrysalis is a lifesaver. The 100% resilience means you virtually never lose a fish once hooked. I recommend this to newer players or those who get frustrated with the reeling minigame. The guaranteed Bloom mutation also makes it surprisingly profitable.
Stats: Lure Speed: 100% | Luck: 500% | Control: 0 | Resilience: 50% | Max Kg: Infinite
With 500% luck, this rod has the highest luck stat in the game. The slash mechanics take some getting used to, but once you master them, you’ll be catching rare fish like nobody’s business. I’ve seen players catch legendary fish back-to-back with this rod when the slashes align perfectly.
The Fischmas event features 20 NPC quests that reward you with Bells (the event currency) and other valuable items. After completing every single quest (some multiple times due to bugs), here’s my comprehensive guide:

The Frost Moon is perhaps the most mysterious and sought-after feature of this year’s Fischmas event. This rare weather event has an extremely low chance to occur at any time, but when it does, it unlocks special mechanics throughout the event area.
During my extensive playtime, I’ve only witnessed the Frost Moon three times, but each occurrence was magical. The moon takes on a blueish tint, and special mechanisms in Northstar Castle and the Winter Village become active. Here’s what I’ve learned:
How to Increase Frost Moon Chances:
What to Do During Frost Moon:
The Frost Moon is essential for 100% event completion, so I recommend dedicating at least one long gaming session specifically to hunting for it. Bring snacks – this requires patience!
Here are the currently working codes for the Fischmas event. I’ve personally tested each one to ensure they’re valid:
How to Redeem Codes:
Codes are case-sensitive and expire quickly, so redeem them as soon as possible. I recommend checking back regularly, as the developers often release new codes throughout the event.
After spending dozens of hours exploring every corner of the Fischmas event, I’ve developed some advanced strategies that will help you maximize your efficiency and enjoyment:

A: The event officially began on December 13, 2025, and is expected to run through early January 2025, though the exact end date hasn’t been announced yet.
A: Head to Moosewood and board the Magic Train on the southern shore. It will take you to Northstar Station, where you’ll need to cross the Freezing Waters to reach Glacial Ridge and eventually Northstar Village.
A: The Frost Moon is a rare weather event with a very low spawn chance. You can increase your chances by purchasing the Frost Moon Totem from Igloo 1 in Glacial Ridge for 5,000 Bells, but it still requires patience and luck.
A: You can find Santa at coordinates 20420, 404, 5588 in the Northern Expedition area. His workshop (Toy Factory) is at coordinates -8051.9, 189.6, -17840.3 in Northstar Village.

After investing countless hours into this year’s Fischmas event, I can confidently say it’s the most ambitious and well-executed seasonal event in Fisch’s history. The perfect blend of exploration, fishing progression, and community collaboration creates an experience that’s both deeply satisfying and incredibly addictive.
What impresses me most is how the event caters to different playstyles. Whether you’re a completionist aiming for that 100% bestiary, a money-hunter looking to maximize profits, or just someone who enjoys exploring beautifully crafted winter landscapes, there’s something here for you.
The addition of the Frost Moon mechanic shows the developers are listening to community feedback and are willing to experiment with new ideas. While it can be frustrating to hunt for such a rare event, the payoff when it finally occurs is absolutely worth the wait.
My advice? Dive in headfirst, but be strategic about your approach. Use the tips and strategies I’ve shared to maximize your efficiency, but don’t forget to take moments to appreciate the incredible attention to detail that makes this event so special.
