In the recent Genshin Impact 2.1 update, fishing rods and the fishing feature was introduced. At the moment, there are only 4 fishing rods in Genshin Impact. Regions in Teyvat have Fishing Associations that sell a particular and unique rod.
Now, if you need to get a particular rod, you need to catch 80 fish of a particular species. In this article, we will be taking a look at all of the fishing rods and how to get them. Let’s get into it!
All The Fishing Rods & Getting Them In Genshin Impact
Wilderness Fishing Rod
The first-ever rod in Genshin Impact that you will get is the Wilderness rod. Firstly, to get this rod you will have to start the Exploding Population quest. Learn more about Fishing & its locations here. This quest tells you about the fishing system and gives this rod for free.
This rod does not have any buffs or unique benefits. So, consider this rod as a stepping stone towards the other fishing rods in Genshin Impact.

In this case, Mondstadt’s archon, Venti or Barbatos is cyan in color.
