The Bamboo Rod is one of the most powerful and sought-after rods for mid to late-game progression in the Roblox experience, Fish It. Unlike other rods, you can’t simply buy it from the main island shop. It’s hidden within the Sacred Temple on the Ancient Jungle island, requiring a specific quest to unlock.
This guide will walk you through the exact steps to find the four artifacts and finally get your hands on the Bamboo Rod.
Where to Find the Bamboo Rod
The Bamboo Rod is not available on the starter island. It is exclusively sold by a vendor inside the Sacred Temple, located on the Ancient Jungle island. Your first goal is to travel to this island.
Step 1: Unlocking the Sacred Temple
Upon arriving at the Ancient Jungle, you will find a large, ornate stone door—this is the entrance to the Sacred Temple. It is initially locked and requires you to activate four mechanisms by collecting four unique artifacts.
Step 2: Gathering the Four Artifacts
To open the temple door, you must collect four artifacts by fishing in specific, colored fishing spots. Using a Fish Radar is highly recommended to easily locate these spots.
Here is the location and artifact for each colored spot:
Yellow Fishing Spot: Catch the Diamond artifact.
Purple Fishing Spot: Catch the Arrow artifact.
Green Fishing Spot: Catch the Crescent artifact.
Red Fishing Spot: Catch the Hourglass Diamond artifact.
Once you have caught an artifact from a spot, you must place it on its corresponding podium.
Step 3: Placing the Artifacts & Activating the Levers
Behind each of the four colored fishing spots, you will find a dedicated stone podium.
Approach the podium behind the Yellow Spot and place the Diamond artifact. A lever will appear. Pull the lever.
Repeat this process for the other three spots:
Podium behind Purple Spot -> Place the Arrow -> Pull the lever.
Podium behind Green Spot -> Place the Crescent -> Pull the lever.
Podium behind Red Spot -> Place the Hourglass Diamond -> Pull the lever.
After you have pulled all four levers, a cinematic will play, and the large stone door to the Sacred Temple will open.
Step 4: Purchasing the Bamboo Rod
Enter the now-open Sacred Temple. Inside, you will find a vendor who sells the Bamboo Rod for $12,000,000 in-game cash. Ensure you have enough currency to make the purchase.
Bamboo Rod Stats and Overview
The Bamboo Rod is a top-tier choice for a reason. Its base stats are impressive:
Luck: 760%
Speed: 97%
Capacity: 500,000 Kg
These high stats make it an excellent rod for tackling powerful fish in mid to late-game areas. While a few rods like the Element Rod have higher stats, they are significantly harder to obtain. The Bamboo Rod offers the best balance of power and accessibility for its stage in the game.
Pro Tip: You can further enhance the Bamboo Rod’s performance by applying Enchantments to it at the Enchantment Table.
FAQ
Q: Do I need a specific rod to catch the artifacts?
A: While you can technically catch them with a starter rod, it is very difficult. It is highly recommended to use a better rod, such as the Steel Rod or better, and always use a Fish Radar to find the colored spots.
Q: What happens if I leave the game after getting an artifact?
A: Your artifact progress is saved. You do not need to collect them all in one session. You can return later to place them on the podiums.
Q: Is the Bamboo Rod the best rod in the game?
A: It is one of the best rods available for direct purchase and is extremely powerful for mid-to-late game. However, it is not the absolute best; end-game rods like the Element Rod have superior stats but require much more effort to obtain.
Q: Can I use the Bamboo Rod to catch all fish?
A: It is capable of catching the vast majority of fish in the game and is a massive upgrade from earlier rods. However, some of the very strongest legendary fish might still require a more specialized, end-game rod.
Conclusion
Obtaining the Bamboo Rod in Fish It is a rewarding milestone that significantly boosts your fishing capabilities. By following these steps—using a Fish Radar to locate the four colored spots, collecting the Diamond, Arrow, Crescent, and Hourglass Diamond artifacts, placing them on their podiums, and pulling the levers—you will unlock the Sacred Temple and gain access to this powerful rod for 12 million cash. It’s a crucial step toward dominating the waters of Fish It.
