The Training Rod can catch only basic fish, and does not allow the use of [[Bait]] or [[Tackle]]. Fish caught with the Training Rod grant the same XP as with any other fishing rod. They also count towards [[Achievements]] and the Fish [[Collections|Collection]].
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.
It is possible to collect [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|fishing treasure chests]] with the Training Rod.{{Review|XP, achievements, collections true?}}
==Mechanics==
===Advantages===
* When using the Training Rod, the bar size in the fishing mini-game will always be set to that of fishing skill level 5. (At the beginning of the game, this is significantly bigger than the size of the level 0 fishing bar.)
* For players who have difficulty with the fishing mini-game, it is recommended to use the Training Rod until you gain a few fishing skill levels.
* At fishing level 5 and higher, it is never advantageous to use the Training Rod (unless you are specifically trying to catch one of the basic fish types).
===Disadvantages===
The Training Rod can catch only basic fish; see below.
===Other===

* Fish caught with the Training Rod do count towards [[Achievements]] and the Fish [[Collections|Collection]].
