What Are Mutations in Fisch?
Mutations are special RNG-based effects that change how your fish look and significantly boost their selling price. You can spot a mutated fish right away during the reeling stage – they’ll have distinct visual effects like glow, color changes, or special auras. A single fish can only have one mutation at a time, but the right mutation can multiply your profits by up to 10 times!

What is Appraisal in Fisch?

Appraisal is a service offered by the Appraiser NPC in Moosewood (located at GPS coordinates 445, 150, 210). This service gives you a second chance at getting better mutations and value for your fish. When you appraise a fish, the Appraiser completely re-rolls its weight and mutation, essentially giving you another opportunity to get a more valuable variant without having to catch a new fish.
Here’s how the appraisal process works:
- Catch any fish you want to appraise.
- Take it to the Appraiser NPC in Moosewood.
- Select the “Can you appraise this fish?” option.
- Pay the fee of 450C$ (or 338C$ if you have the Appraiser’s Luck gamepass).
- The Appraiser will re-roll your fish’s weight and potentially apply a new mutation.
Fish Attributes
In addition to mutations, fish can also have attributes that stack with mutations and with each other. Unlike mutations, you can have multiple attributes on a single fish:
Attribute | Multiplier | How to Get |
Shiny | 1.85× | 1% natural chance, boosted by Blessed Enchantment, Shiny Surge event, and Destiny Rod |
Sparkling | 1.85× | 1% natural chance, boosted by Blessed Enchantment, Night of the Luminous event, and Destiny Rod |
Big | 1-1.99× | Applied to fish exceeding base weight, boosted by Sea Overlord/Sea King/Abyssal Enchantments, Kings Rod, Poseidon Rod, or Seasons Rod in summer |
Giant | 2-2.5× | Applied to fish twice their base weight, boosted by same methods as Big |
Best Ways to Get Mutated Fish
Now that you know all the mutations, let’s look at the most effective ways to increase your chances of catching them:
1. Special Fishing Rods
The right fishing rod is your most important tool for targeting specific mutations:
- Kraken Rod: Tentacle Surge mutation (5% chance) – highest value multiplier (10×)
- Ethereal Prism Rod: Prismize mutation (50% chance) – second highest value multiplier (8×)
- Auric Rod: Various gold-related mutations (20% chance each)
- Mythical Rod: Mythical mutation (30% chance)
- Trident Rod: Atlantean mutation (30% chance)
- Midas Rod: Midas mutation (60% chance)
- Seasons Rod: Seasonal mutations (20% chance)
2. Rod Enchantments
Enhance your rods with these enchantments to boost mutation chances:
- Mutated: Increases chance for any mutation by 7%
- Blessed: Increases chance for Shiny/Sparkling by 2%
- Noir: Increases chance for Albino/Darkened by 25%
- Abyssal: Increases chance for Abyssal by 10%
- Ghastly: Increases chance for Translucent by 20%
- Quantum: Increases chance for Subspace by 25%
- Anomalous: Increases chance for Anomalous by 10%
3. Special Events
Take advantage of these random events that significantly boost mutation chances:
- Mutation Surge: Increases mutation chances by 15%
- Shiny Surge: Increases Shiny catch rate by 3%
- Night of the Luminous: Increases Sparkling catch rate by 10%
- Moonlit Mirage: Increases Lunar mutation chance
- Aurora Borealis: Increases Aurora mutation chance (30% with Aurora Rod)
- Eclipse: Chance for Solarblaze mutation (10%)
- Blizzard: Chance for Blighted mutation (15%)
- Avalanche: Chance for Sleet mutation (10%)
4. NPCs: The Appraiser and Chiseler

Two key NPCs can help you get mutated fish:
- The Appraiser (Moosewood): For 450 cash (or 338 with Appraiser’s Luck game pass), this NPC can appraise your fish and potentially apply a random mutation.
- The Chiseler (Ancient Isles): For 100 cash (or 75 with Appraiser’s Luck game pass), this NPC can convert your Amber-mutated fish into either:
- Purified mutation (2× value)
- Revitalized mutation (4× value)
5. Other Special Methods
- Nukes: Drop a nuke to give all fish in the affected area the Nuclear mutation (4× value) for 30 minutes
- Treasure Chests: Fish for treasure maps, then open chests for a chance at Sunken mutation (4× value)
- Special Baits: Some baits guarantee specific mutations (like Chocolate Fish bait for Chocolate mutation)
- Specific Locations: Some mutations are more common in certain areas (like Electric in Grand Reef)
Mutation Stacking and Priority

Understanding how mutations interact with each other is crucial for maximizing your profits in Fisch. When multiple mutation rolls succeed on the same catch (commonly referred to as “clashing”), the game doesn’t randomly choose which one to apply – it follows a specific priority order. The game starts with the lowest priority mutations and works its way up, with higher priority mutations overriding lower ones. Natural mutations and those from appraisal have the lowest priority, followed by standard rod passive abilities. Special bait mutations come next, followed by enchantment mutations, event-based mutations, and location-specific mutations.
Special rod ability mutations like the Zeus Rod’s Electric Shock have an even higher priority. At the very top of the hierarchy are specific high-priority rod mutations, such as Celestial, King’s Blessing, and Tentacle Surge. This understanding can help you strategize which combination of rod, enchantment, and fishing location to use to maximize your chances of getting your desired mutation.
