Fisch just turned two, and the Birthday Cake near Moosewood is where everything happens. I checked the top guides so you don’t have to. Light all 11 candles to unlock the Birthday Candle Rod, redeem the new code Happy2ndYear, and finish before the event ends on October 6.

How the Birthday Cake Works?

You hand in fish to light candles. Only unique species count, so turning in the same fish twice won’t light another candle.

  1. Travel to the Birthday Cake near Moosewood.
  2. Catch anniversary fish from Anniversary Pools or open water.
  3. Toss them into the icing pool.
  4. Collect XP and Cupcake bait.
  5. Keep submitting new species until all candles are lit.

Fishing near the cake also gives a small luck boost toward the global anniversary catches.

Anniversary Pools and Special Fish

Anniversary Pools spawn on a timer, and the pool guides I read put the windows at roughly hourly. They appear around:

  • Castaway Cliffs
  • Forsaken Shores
  • Roslit Bay
  • Snowcap Island

Pools hold the Birthday Leviathan, Birthday Colossal Squid and Birthday Floppy, plus other event species. Some anniversary fish can also be caught outside the pools, so regular fishing still helps.

The Anniversary Totem at Candle 5 is the one I’d rush. It lets you summon pools yourself instead of waiting for spawns.

Birthday Candle Rod: Stats and Passive

The rod has 60% Lure Speed and wears a candle on your head while equipped. Its passive is the interesting part:

  • The candle lights up as you catch fish, and about 5 catches fully light it.
  • Perfect catches count double.
  • A lit candle burns your fish for at least 3 seconds.
  • Fish can get the Birthday mutation (reported at 26%).

You can also drop a cake onto a lured fish. Treyex Gaming reports this adds about 65% progress to the candle bar.
