Events in Net a Fish are opportunities to catch rare fish, earn more Cash, and collect valuable rewards. Some events temporarily boost your fishing luck or increase the number of fish in the river, while others introduce powerful bosses and special fish that you can catch for exclusive loot. Here are all Net a Fish events and what you can get from them.
All 4 Types of Events in Net a Fish
I've categorized all events in Net a Fish into three types: Wave Rush, Boss, River, and Awakenings. You can check details of the ongoing event from the Events icon in the top-right corner of the screen. It also displays the upcoming events schedule. Some events in Net a Fish follow a fixed schedule, while others appear randomly as you play.

While Wave Rush, River, and Awakening events provide bonuses or spawn rare fish, boss events involve combat. You can earn various in-game items from the boss events by defeating and damaging the bosses.
1. Wave Rush Event in Net a Fish
Wave Rush is a recurring tsunami event that takes place every ten minutes. You can encounter four types of tsunami waves during the event: Small, Medium, Big, and Massive. The waves increase the number of fish in the river. These fish are rarer and have a high chance of being mutated. Each wave determines the event bonuses. However, you won't necessarily see a Massive wave every time the event starts.

2. Boss Events in Net a Fish
Net a Fish has three boss events, each spawning a giant enemy. You can deal damage and defeat the bosses to earn rewards, like Cash, Crates, and more. Here are the details of all three boss events:
Kraken Boss Event
The Kraken event is a server-wide boss encounter that begins every 45 minutes. Once it begins, the Kraken swims up the river and stops at different docks. You can attack it by casting your net into the water. During each Kraken event, a 2x cash bonus is active.
Your net's strength determines how much damage each hit deals. Casting stronger nets can help you deal more damage during the encounter. Dealing more damage also improves the loot you receive. The Kraken event has the following rewards:
- Cash
- Ocean Crates
- Mini-Kraken Fish
- Pearls

Megalodon Boss Event
The Megalodon is one of the Boss events in Net a Fish. It requires players to use their Spear Gun's Turret Mode. Players with Rebirth 2 or higher can participate. Keep firing at the Megalodon to deal damage. Make sure to use the final 30 seconds of the encounter to take advantage of the 2x damage window. Defeating the boss rewards you with the following:
- 3x Ocean Crates
- 200 Pearls
- 15-minute 2x Money
- 2x Luck boosts

Bloop Boss Event
The Bloop is a giant boss that spawns every 90 minutes and requires players with Rebirth 2 or higher to join the fight. Use your Fisherman, Boat, and Spear Gun to take it down, or switch your Spear Gun to Turret Mode to help deal damage. Defeating the Bloop rewards you with the following:
- 1x Abyss Crate
- 30-minute income boost
- 30-minute 2x Luck boost
- Exclusive Bloop Breaker title

3. River Events and Bonuses in Net a Fish
River Events are temporary boosts that can appear randomly while you're playing. Each one usually lasts between two and three minutes and activates a specific bonus for everyone in the server. Net a Fish has five River events.
Take advantage of these events every time they appear. For example, Lucky Tide is a good chance to look for rare catches, while Gold Rush and Pearl Harvester can help you collect more currency and Pearls. Here's what each one does:
| River Event | Effect and Bonus |
|---|---|
| Lucky Tide | Doubles Luck for everyone in the server. |
| Gold Rush | Gives everyone a 2x Money boost. |
| Shimmer Surge | Increases the chance of fish spawning with mutations by 3x. |
| Packed River | Increases the number of fish spawning in the river by 50%. |
| Pearl Harvester | Doubles the Pearls earned by everyone in the server. |
| Pirate Raid | Defeat Pirate Raids to earn Chests and other loot. |

4. Awakening Events in Net a Fish
Awakening events introduce high-rarity fish in the river. Unlike regular River Events, these occur across all servers simultaneously. You can catch some of the rarest fish in Net a Fish during the Awakening Events.
Whenever an Awakening takes place, the game sends out a global announcement. However, not everyone will receive this notification. Your net must be able to hold fish of the announced rarity to see the message and catch the awakened fish.
Players with weaker nets won't see the notification or be able to catch that fish. Each Awakening is associated with a particular fish rarity and follows its own spawn interval. Here's a look at all the known Awakening rarities and how often they occur:
| Awakening Rarity | Spawn Time |
|---|---|
| Forbidden | Every 10 minutes |
| Cosmic | Every 15 minutes |
| Divine | Every 25 minutes |
| Abyssal | Every 35 minutes |
| Empyrean | Every 50 minutes |
| Supreme | Every 1 hour |
| Zenith | Every 2 hours |
| Boundless | Every 3 hours |
| Eclipse | Every 4 hours |
| Genesis | Every 8 hours |
| Obsidian | Every 12 hours |
