Fisch Christmas Tree Rod Guide

Fisch’s Christmas Tree Rod is a limited Fischmas 2025 event rod you unlock from the Advent Calendar on Day 5, or by buying the full calendar bundle with Robux if you missed earlier days. It’s a comfort‑focused event rod with high control, decent luck, a bit of resilience, and effectively infinite max kg, plus a Merry mutation effect that occasionally upgrades your catches during the Christmas event.

How to get the Christmas Tree Rod

The Christmas Tree Rod is an event‑exclusive rod tied directly to the Fischmas 2025 Advent Calendar.​

• Advent Calendar Day 5 reward
  • The rod is listed on the Advent Calendar as the reward for December 5, meaning you get it for free simply by logging in on that date and claiming that day’s gift.​
  • To claim rewards, you travel to Moosewood, walk to the big Christmas tree near the docks/leaderboards, and talk to the Tom Elf NPC, who opens the Advent Calendar UI.​
• Buying all Advent days with Robux
  • Advent guides explain that you can pay a one‑time Robux fee (listed as 699 Robux for all days) to instantly unlock any unclaimed rewards, including the Christmas Tree Rod, if you missed December 5.​
  • This bundle can only be bought while the Fischmas event is active; once the calendar expires at the end of December, unused rewards—including this rod—can no longer be obtained.​

Once claimed, the Christmas Tree Rod is yours permanently; it does not disappear after Fischmas, and you can equip and use it like any other rod in later updates.​

Christmas Tree Rod stats & passive explained

Community tier‑list and Advent breakdowns summarize the Christmas Tree Rod with the following stat profile:​

• Luck: about 50% – a modest boost to rarity/mutation odds over true starter rods.
• Control: about 75% – significantly higher than entry‑level rods, making the reel bar smoother and easier to keep in the safe zone.
• Resilience: around 10% – a small buffer against line break from tension.
• Max Kg: effectively infinite – meaning fish weight will not be the limiting factor that snaps your line.

On top of those base stats, Advent‑focused guides highlight a unique Merry mutation effect, described as roughly a 25% chance for hooked fish to roll a Merry mutation, which increases their value and tags them as a special festive catch. In practice, that turns ordinary Fischmas fishing into occasional high‑value spikes when the mutation procs, especially useful while you’re still in low‑ to mid‑tier rods and don’t have more advanced value passives unlocked.​

Compared with other event rods, Christmas Tree Rod is tuned more toward comfort and fun than raw profit: the high control and infinite max kg make it very hard to lose fish by weight or bar wobble, but its luck and resilience numbers sit below serious late‑game craftable or premium rods.​

How good is it, really? Best uses and progression

In rod tier lists, the Christmas Tree Rod usually lands in the early‑ to mid‑game tier, above flimsy beginner rods but below heavy‑hitting craftables like Seasons, Krampus’s, or high‑level end‑game rods. That suggests a clear niche:​

• Great for event and casual fishing
  • The combination of high control + infinite max weight makes it very forgiving for players who are still learning the minigame or playing on higher ping.​
  • The Merry mutation effect turns routine winter fishing runs into occasional pay‑off moments, which feels good even if it’s not mathematically optimal compared to hardcore money setups.​
• Solid stepping‑stone in rod progression
  • Newer accounts that claim the rod on Day 5 can comfortably use it as their main rod through early progression, until they unlock stronger rods in Roslit Bay, Mushgrove Swamp, or via crafting at Ancient Archives.​
  • Once you reach rods with much higher lure speed and luck, or with value‑focused passives (like dedicated money/mutation rods), Christmas Tree Rod naturally becomes more of a collector’s item or a fun seasonal pick rather than your best grind option.​

If you want to give readers simple, safe advice in your article: recommend using Christmas Tree Rod as soon as they claim it during Fischmas, then swapping off to stronger, permanent rods once they’ve progressed into mid‑game crafting or high‑rank shop rods.​

Enchants and synergy tips

Because the Christmas Tree Rod already leans into control and infinite max weight, enchants that push its comfort and value even further make the most sense.

• Comfort‑focused option: stack more Control/Resilience‑oriented enchants to create a “you basically can’t lose fish” setup, ideal for relaxed event fishing or for players still learning how to time reeling.​​
• Value‑focused option: combine it with general Luck/value enchants to amplify both its base luck and its Merry mutation passive, turning Christmas Tree Rod into a surprisingly decent seasonal money rod until you unlock stronger specialists.​

Avoid investing your absolute best late‑game enchants into this rod if you already own higher‑tier permanent rods; make it clear in your guide that Jinglestar, Antler, Christmas Tree, and other Advent rods are primarily seasonal sidegrades and collectibles, not long‑term meta replacements for top craftable or premium rods.​

Quick FAQs

Can you still get the Christmas Tree Rod after Fischmas 2025 ends?
No current source shows a way to obtain it once the Advent Calendar is gone; your only windows are logging in on December 5 or buying the full Advent bundle with Robux while the event is active.​

Is the Christmas Tree Rod tradable or sold anywhere?
Rod lists and Advent guides only show it as an Advent reward; there is no shop, quest, or crate that drops it, and nothing indicates it can be traded between players.​

Is it better than other Advent rods like Antler or North‑Star?
Advent roundups generally place Antler and especially North‑Star as more impactful long‑term rods, with Christmas Tree filling a comfortable, fun, high‑control niche rather than competing for the absolute top slot.​
