The '''Training Rod''' is a special [[Tools|tool]] used to catch [[fish]]. It can be purchased for {{price|25}} from [[Fish Shop|Willy's Fish Shop]]. This rod is useful if the player has difficulty with the fishing minigame, as it sets the player's fishing skill equal to level 5 for the purposes of determining how big to make the green bar (136 pixels), but only if they have not reached level 5 yet. It cannot have [[bait]] or [[tackle]] attached to it. However, using the Training Rod causes the progress bar to decrease 33% slower compared to other rods, having the same effect as the [[Trap Bobber]].<ref name="tbobber" />
The [[Training Rod]] is a special [[Tools|tool]] used to catch [[fish]]. It can be purchased for {{price|25}} from [[Fish Shop|Willy's Fish Shop]] if the player has difficulty with the fishing mini-game.
The Training Rod can catch only basic fish (fish whose difficulty is lower than 50), and all fish caught will be of normal quality. However, fish caught with the Training Rod grant the same XP as with any other fishing rod, and count towards [[Achievements]] and the Fish [[Collections|Collection]]. [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|Treasure chests]] can also be caught with this rod. The [[Modding:Fish data#Spawn rate|Spawn rate]] for all eligible fish also increases by 10%.<ref name="spawnrate" />
==Mechanics==
==Fish==
The Training Rod can catch the following fish:
[[Anchovy]], [[Bream]], [[Bullhead]], [[Carp]], [[Chub]], [[Herring]], [[Perch]], [[Rainbow Trout]], [[Red Snapper]], [[Sardine]], [[Sea Cucumber]], [[Shad]], [[Smallmouth Bass]], [[Sunfish]], [[Walleye]]
Like with other rods, the Training Rod can also catch [[Trash]], [[Green Algae]], [[White Algae]], [[Seaweed]], [[Sea Jelly]], [[River Jelly]], and [[Cave Jelly]].
===Disadvantages===
==Notes==
* Using the Training Rod in [[the Mines]] will only cause [[Trash]] to appear.<ref name="mineshaft" />
