To get the Hammyshork Rod in Fisch, I rescue an injured shark during a Shark Hunt, enter the Shark Sanctuary near The Arch, and give Hammi 13 different sharks. He then hands over the rod and 10 Shark Tokens for free. This guide covers every shark’s bait, weather and season, plus stats, modes and leveling, as of November 2026.

Where to Find Hammi and Start the Quest?
I can’t walk into the Shark Sanctuary directly. Here is how I get in:
- Wait for a Shark Hunt, or start one with a Shark Whistle.
- Dive to the sea floor and rescue the injured shark (the lost shark plush). Guides place it in the dark pink Shark Pools near Castaway Cliffs and The Arch. One guide places it under the Desolate Deep Buoy, so check there if the first spot is empty.
- Head to the cave behind The Arch, under a pile of rubble before the broken ships. Guides list slightly different coordinates: 1284.2, -9.3, -1676.2 or 1292.2, 23.6, -1711.4. Use the Fisch GPS and stay close.
- Cross the short underwater obby and talk to Hammi in the centre.
Pro tip: The plush only shows up while a hunt is running. If the sea floor is empty, wait for a hunt or use a Shark Whistle, then dive again.
All 13 Sharks for Hammi’s Quest
Hammi takes one of each. The conditions below give the best odds, but a shark caught under other conditions still counts.
| Shark | Rarity | Location | Bait | Weather | Season | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Great Hammerhead | Mythical | Ocean (Shark Hunt) | Fish Head | Windy | Spring | Day |
| Great White | Mythical | Ocean (Shark Hunt) | Fish Head | Clear* | Autumn | Day |
| Whale Shark | Mythical | Ocean (Shark Hunt) | Shrimp | Clear | Summer/Autumn | Day |
| Megamouth | Mythical | Ocean (Shark Hunt) | Krill | Any | Summer | Night |
| Cookiecutter | Rare | Ocean | Bagel | Clear/Foggy | Spring/Summer | Night |
| Gemstone Whale Shark | Mythical | Treasure Island | Sapphire Krill | Any | Any | Any |
| Ginsu | Legendary | Ancient Isle | Fish Head | Any | Summer | Night |
| Great Goldcursed | Secret | Castaway Cliffs | Fish Head | Foggy | Autumn | Night |
| Icebeard | Mythical | Glacial Grotto, Northern Expedition | Truffle Worm | Any | Winter | Night |
| Maelstorm | Legendary | Atlantean Storm | Truffle Worm | Foggy | Autumn | Any |
| Mutated | Mythical | The Depths | Fish Head | Any | Winter | Night |
| Nurse | Unusual | Ocean | Minnow | Any | Summer/Autumn | Night |
| Umbral | Legendary | Keepers Altar (below Statue of Sovereignty) | Fish Head | Clear | Winter | Night |
*Beebom and Fisch Calculator list Clear for the Great White. TechWiser and Bloxodes list Windy. I’d try Clear first.
Smart Order to Catch Them
- Start with the four hunt sharks. They only bite inside their Shark Hunt rings, and you can’t pick which hunt spawns. Fish the other sharks while you wait.
- Easiest: Nurse, Cookiecutter and Gemstone Whale Shark. Gemstone has no time, weather or season limits.
- Hardest: Great Goldcursed. It is Secret rarity and needs fog, autumn and night all at once. Bring a high-luck setup or an Aurora Totem.
- Group by season. Many sharks need a different season, so catch the winter ones (Icebeard, Mutated, Umbral) together.
Shark Hunt Spawn Spots
These are the coordinates I’d check first:
- Great White and Hammerhead: 815, 74, -235 (near Moosewood)
- Whale Shark: -410, 74, -2575 (near the Desolate Deep)
- Megamouth (night only): 1212, 126, -2755 (Birch Cay)
Since 2.09, fishing in abundance spots can start Shark Hunts. Apex versions of the sharks can also appear. The Kraken Rod, or a rod with the Wormhole enchant, can catch hunt sharks outside a hunt.
Claiming the Rod
Hand over all 13 sharks one by one. A partial set earns nothing. Then equip the rod from your Equipment Bag.
Hammyshork Rod Stats and Passive
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Luck | 170% |
| Lure Speed | 70% |
| Control | 0.15 |
| Resilience | 15% |
| Max Weight | Infinite |
| Hunt Focus | Shark Hunt (+15) |
The passive gives a 2.5% chance to gain a Shark Token. While you catch the primary shark of a Shark Hunt, it also activates Shark Powahh. In my view the rod is worth it for Shark Hunt players. Luck and lure speed are only average, so other rods suit general fishing better.
Hammyshork Rod Modes and How to Unlock Them?
The rod has three modes, and each one starts at level 0.
| Mode | How to Unlock | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Hammy | Default after the quest | n/a |
| Get Well Soon | Go to Northern Expedition, follow the blue plushie trails to the top and rescue the plush. Bring a Winter Cloak and Oxygen Tank. | Mode + Sharkbreaker + 10 Shark Tokens |
| Well | Rescue the Well Plush, then swim through every green ring in the Desolate Deep course before the timer ends | Mode + 10 Shark Tokens |
You don’t need either extra mode to receive the rod.
How to Level Up the Rod?
The rod gives catches the Feeding Frenzy mutation. When you catch a Mythical, Exotic, Secret or Apex fish with it, a Feed option appears. Feed it to the shark of the mode you’re using. One Mythical fish raised Hammy from level 0 to 0.25. The other two modes ask for Exotic or rarer fish.
