Special fish represent the absolute pinnacle of rarity in Fisch, surpassing even Secret fish in terms of prestige and difficulty. Unlike regular fishing where you can catch rare species anytime with enough patience, Special fish are entirely dependent on admin-controlled events that occur randomly throughout the server.
The most distinctive feature of Special fish is their signature sound effect - a clear "trinnggg" that resonates when you hook one. This audio cue immediately tells you that you've snagged something extraordinary, though the real challenge begins with actually reeling it in. With progress speed debuffs ranging from -80% to a staggering -100%, these catches require not just luck but the right equipment and strategy.
What makes Special fish particularly coveted among the Fisch community is their exclusivity. You can't simply grind for hours to guarantee a catch - you need to be in the right place at the right time when an admin event activates. This scarcity has created a thriving trading economy around Special fish, with some commanding astronomical prices in player-to-player exchanges on the official Fisch Discord server.
Before attempting to catch any Special fish, you'll need to equip yourself with top-tier fishing rods. The absolute minimum recommendations include:
Polaris Serenade Rod - Currently tied as the best rod in the game, this Stage 11 rod offers infinite control and instant catch capabilities. Its unique passives include a 14x value increase and the ability to catch Quiet mutated fish every 2 minutes. To obtain it, you'll need to complete Nick's three quests at the Underground Music Venue, requiring level 1000+ and 50,000,000C$.
Ethereal Prism Rod - Available at the Calm Zone for 15,000,000C$, this Stage 9 rod provides a 50% chance for an 8x mutation, making it exceptional for maximizing profit from your Special catches. Its balanced stats make it versatile enough to handle any Special fish when properly enchanted.
Wingripper Rod - Another endgame option that rivals the Polaris Serenade in raw power, particularly effective when dealing with the extreme progress speed penalties of Special fish.
Seraphic Rod - A free alternative once you reach the required level cap, offering solid all-around stats that can handle most Special fish with the right enchantments.
Since Special fish inflict severe progress speed penalties, choosing the right enchantment is crucial:
Immortal (Exalted Enchantment) - Provides +75% Luck increase and significant progress speed bonuses, making it ideal for overcoming the harsh debuffs. Requires an Exalted Relic to apply.
Overclocked (Cosmic Enchantment) - Essential for catching the Singularity with its -100% progress speed effect. This enchantment allows your rod to function even when progress would normally be impossible.
Piercing - Works similarly to the Trident Rod's passive ability, providing consistent progress even against high resistance. Adds +15% Progress Speed as a bonus.
Chaotic - Offers an average 1.88x multiplier per fish while helping maintain progress against Special fish resistance.
Steady - A more accessible option that reduces progression loss by 25% and provides +20% progress speed, though less effective than Exalted enchantments.
Blessed Song - Grants +40% Progress Speed boost, particularly effective on balanced rods like the Ethereal Prism. Requires the Song of the Deep relic obtained from Captain Ahab.
Golden Coin The Golden Coin appears exclusively during Goldstorm events when foggy weather conditions align. Using Magnet bait significantly increases your chances of hooking this metallic treasure. With a -85% progress speed debuff, it's one of the more manageable Special catches, though still requiring a properly enchanted rod. The Goldstorm event also doubles all selling values and provides mutation chances for Golden, Fortune, Lustrous, and Radiant variants.
Golden Nessie Perhaps the most sought-after of the golden trio, the Golden Nessie requires Golden Worm bait and foggy weather during either Goldstorm or Pure Chaos events. Its -90% progress speed makes it challenging but not impossible with proper preparation. Many anglers report better success rates when fishing in deeper waters during the event.
Golden Scylla The Golden Scylla demands Golden Worm bait during Goldstorm events but doesn't require specific weather conditions. However, its -95% progress speed effect makes it one of the most challenging catches, requiring enchantments like Immortal or Invincible for consistent success.
Ghost When the Spectral Tide event combines with foggy weather, the Ghost becomes catchable without any specific bait requirements. Its -90% progress speed and ethereal nature make it a challenging but rewarding catch. The event grants 2x server XP and chances for Haunted, Soulless, Spectral, and Wisp mutations.
Ghoul Similar to the Ghost in requirements, the Ghoul appears during Spectral Tide events in foggy weather. However, its -95% progress speed makes it significantly harder to reel in. Many successful anglers recommend using the Aurora Totem to boost server luck by 7x during attempts.
Poltergeist The Poltergeist rounds out the spectral trio, requiring the same foggy Spectral Tide conditions. With -90% progress speed, it falls between the Ghost and Ghoul in difficulty. All three spectral fish share similar translucent appearances but have distinct animations when caught.
Snowflake The most versatile of winter catches, Snowflakes can appear during Snowstorm, Pure Chaos, Semi Chaos, or Mayhem events. No specific bait or weather is required, and with only -85% progress speed, it's one of the easier Special fish to catch. The Snowstorm event applies 2x server luck and XP while enabling Chilled, Frozen, and Snowy mutations.
Snowman Exclusive to Snowstorm events, the Snowman requires no specific bait but imposes a -90% progress speed penalty. During Snowstorm events, the Frostbane Rod temporarily spawns in Frigid Cavern, providing an alternative catching method for winter-themed Specials.
Fridge The Fridge is a peculiar Special fish that appears only during Snowstorm events. Despite being an appliance, it counts as a fish in your bestiary. With -95% progress speed, it requires powerful enchantments and patient reeling technique.
Singularity The ultimate test of your fishing setup, the Singularity appears only during Nulltide events and inflicts a devastating -100% progress speed effect. This means standard rods literally cannot make any progress. Only rods with Overclocked, Piercing, or Chaotic enchantments can overcome this absolute barrier. The rarity of both Nulltide events and successful catches makes the Singularity one of the most valuable Special fish.
Black Iron Bucket During the ominous Skies of Anguish event, the Black Iron Bucket becomes catchable with 5 Dollar bait. Its -95% progress speed demands top-tier enchantments, and the specific bait requirement means you need to stock up beforehand.
Flashlight The Blackout event brings opportunities to catch the Flashlight using Magnet bait. With -85% progress speed, it's relatively manageable compared to other Specials, though the Blackout event itself is quite rare.
Luck plays a crucial role in Special fish encounters, even during active admin events. Here are proven methods to maximize your server luck:
Aurora Borealis Strategy - Purchase and use Aurora Totems to trigger the Aurora Borealis event, multiplying server luck by 7x. This dramatic increase significantly improves your chances of hooking Special fish during admin events. Stack this with naturally lucky times like full moons for compound effects.
Merlin's Luck Boost - Visit Merlin at Sunstone Island (coordinates X: -928, Y: 223, Z: -998) once you reach level 30. His luck potions provide substantial boosts that stack with other luck modifiers. Purchase multiple potions before admin events begin.
Server Luck Gamepasses - While requiring Robux investment, server luck boosts provide consistent advantages. During major events like MAYHEM with 5000x server luck, even small percentage increases translate to significant improvements.
Rod Selection for Luck - Certain rods provide inherent luck bonuses. The Rod of the Depths offers 130% Luck, while the Destiny Rod provides an impressive 250% Luck increase. Combine these with Lucky or Divine enchantments for maximum effect.
Having the right bait ready before admin events is crucial:
Golden Worms - Essential for Golden Nessie and Golden Scylla. Stock up by fishing in specific locations or purchasing from bait vendors. Some players maintain reserves of 50+ Golden Worms for extended Goldstorm sessions.
Magnet Bait - Required for Flashlight and Golden Coin. Relatively common but worth stockpiling. Can be obtained through regular fishing or crate opening.
5 Dollar Bait - Specifically needed for Black Iron Bucket. Less common than other baits, making preparation essential. Check active Fisch codes regularly for exclusive bait rewards.
While admin events are controlled manually, certain patterns have emerged:
Peak Hours - Events often occur during peak player times, typically evenings and weekends in EST timezone. Joining full servers increases your chances of experiencing events.
Event Chains - Admins sometimes run multiple events in succession. If you catch wind of one event ending, stay online as another might follow shortly.
Discord Announcements - The official Fisch Discord and Trading Plaza servers often have members who announce active events in real-time. Enable notifications for event channels.
Mastering your casting technique can make the difference between success and failure with Special fish:
The -95% to -100% progress speed effects require specific strategies:
Bar Management Technique
Enchantment Stacking While you can't stack multiple enchantments on one rod, you can combine rod passives with enchantments:
Stamina Conservation Special fish often require extended reeling sessions:
Some Special fish appear in multiple events, offering more opportunities:
Snowflake Optimization Since Snowflakes appear in Snowstorm, Pure Chaos, Semi Chaos, and Mayhem events, focus your efforts here for guaranteed Special catches. The Mayhem event is particularly valuable with its 5000x server luck and ability to catch ALL Special fish.
Golden Nessie Flexibility
With appearances in both Goldstorm and Pure Chaos events, Golden Nessie offers more chances than single-event fish. Prepare Golden Worm bait in advance and monitor both event types.
The Fisch community has established several hubs for Special fish enthusiasts:
Official Fisch Discord - With over 900,000 members, this is the primary hub for event announcements, trading, and strategy discussion. The #special-fish channel provides real-time updates during admin events.

Sometimes preparation isn't enough:
Admin events are entirely manual and vary in frequency. Some weeks might see multiple events daily, while others might have none. Peak activity typically occurs during weekends and holiday periods. The official Fisch Wiki tracks historical event patterns.
Yes, admin events affect all servers including private ones when activated. Some players prefer private servers to avoid competition for catches, though you'll miss the social aspect and potential trading opportunities.
Absolutely. Special fish with rare mutations like Lunar, Astral, or event-specific mutations (Golden, Spectral) can multiply their base value significantly. A mutated Special fish might trade for several times the value of a normal variant.
Start with Snowflake during any of its four possible events. With only -85% progress speed and no bait requirements, it's the most accessible Special fish. Use it to practice techniques before attempting harder catches.
While technically possible, using macros violates Roblox's terms of service and can result in permanent bans. The satisfaction of legitimately catching Special fish far outweighs any shortcuts.
Events are announced server-wide with distinct visual and audio cues. The sky often changes color, special effects appear, and chat notifications confirm the event type. Discord communities also provide real-time alerts.
No hard limit exists, but practical limitations include event duration, competition from other players, and your available resources (bait, stamina, time).
Generally yes, as appraisal can reveal valuable mutations or superior stats that significantly increase value. However, some collectors prefer non-appraised fish for the mystery element.
Special fish in your inventory remain safe during updates. Occasionally, updates might add new Special fish or modify catch requirements, but existing catches aren't affected.
Currently, Special fish aren't required for any specific quests, though this might change in future updates. They're primarily collection and trading items.
Mastering the art of catching Special fish in Fisch requires patience, preparation, and a bit of luck. These 12 extraordinary creatures represent the ultimate challenge for dedicated anglers, combining the excitement of random admin events with the skill needed to overcome extreme catching difficulties.
Remember that success with Special fish isn't just about having the best rod or perfect enchantments - it's about being part of the vibrant Fisch community, staying informed about events, and continuously improving your technique. Whether you're hunting for your first Snowflake or trying to complete the entire Special collection, each catch brings that satisfying "trinnggg" sound and the prestige that comes with owning these rare treasures.
Keep your rods ready, your bait stocked, and your notifications on. The next admin event could start at any moment, and with this guide's strategies, you'll be ready to add these magnificent Special fish to your collection. Happy fishing, and may the RNG gods smile upon your next cast!
