Dofus Retro Fisherman Guide: Level 1 to 100

In Dofus Retro, you level Fisherman by always fishing the biggest spot your level allows: small fish spots first, then fish, big fish and finally giant fish spots from level 70 in rivers and 80 at sea. The only real cost of the profession is the specialised rods at levels 30, 60 and 100.

Learning the Fisherman profession

You learn the profession from the foreman in Incarnam, at [3,3]. A character cannot have more than three professions at once: if you already have three, you will have to forget one, and a forgotten profession starts again from level 1.

Fishing spots by level

Every spot exists in rivers and at sea. The level shown is the one you need to fish it, and the fish you get is drawn at random from the list. Click a fish to copy its name.

Spot	Water	Level	Possible fish
Small fish	River	1	Gudgeon Trout Kittenfish
Small fish	Sea	1	Grawn Crab Stick Breaded Fish
Fish	River	10	Trout Kittenfish Pike Ediem Carp
Fish	Sea	20	Crab Stick Breaded Fish Shiny Sardine Kralove
Big fish	River	40	Kittenfish Pike Ediem Carp Lard Bass
Big fish	Sea	50	Breaded Fish Shiny Sardine Kralove Blue Skate
Giant fish	River	70	Pike Ediem Carp Lard Bass Perch
Giant fish	Sea	80	Shiny Sardine Kralove Blue Skate Sickle-Hammerhead Shark

A failed catch gives no experience, which is why the first levels are the slowest.

Fishing rods

From level 10, the Standard Fishing Rod lets you fish a bit of everything. The specialised rods for levels 30, 60 and 100 are sold by a merchant at [9,0], in Amakna. Each one raises your chances of catching a specific fish, without guaranteeing it.

Rod	Level	Favoured fish	Price
Cubic Fishing Rod	30	Breaded Fish	5,000 kamas
Knitting Needle	30	Kittenfish	5,000 kamas
Cho's Fishing Rod	60	Ediem Carp	10,000 kamas
Love Rod	60	Kralove	10,000 kamas
The Big Pole	100	Perch	20,000 kamas
Harpoon Fishing Rod	100	Sickle-Hammerhead Shark	20,000 kamas

Buying both rods at each step costs 70,000 kamas in total. If you are short when you reach level 30 or 60, you can buy Dofus Retro kamas to get equipped right away.

Where to fish at each step

Levels 1 to 20

Small river and sea spots are enough. In Sufokia, the fishing contest makes every catch succeed: the fish you get are useless, but the experience helps you through the first levels, where failures are frequent.

Levels 20 to 40

From level 20, sea fish spots open up: Sufokia and Madrestam Harbour have plenty of them.

Levels 40 to 60

Big river spots (40) and big sea spots (50) are found in Bandit Territory and around the Cemetery, among other places.

Levels 60 to 80

Head for the Enchanted Lakes, the Dreggon Peninsula, or Aerdala if your character is aligned. Monsters in these areas can attack you while you fish, so bring a character who can defend themselves.

Levels 80 to 100

At 80, every spot is open, giant sea fish included: going higher does not unlock any new fish. The last levels are mostly for using The Big Pole and the Harpoon Fishing Rod.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy a fishing rod in Dofus Retro?

From the merchant at [9,0], in Amakna, who sells the six rods for levels 30, 60 and 100.

Do I need to fish at certain times?

Some players say they have more luck in the morning, in the evening or at night, but nothing official confirms it. Fish whenever you like and focus on picking the right spot.

Why level Fisherman past level 80?

Every spot is already open at level 80. Level 100 is mostly for using the two best rods.
