Are you ready to unlock the most mysterious and rewarding locations in Fisch? The Chasm and Mineshaft are hidden gems that many players struggle to access, but they contain some of the rarest fish and most valuable treasures in the game. As an experienced Fisch player who has spent countless hours exploring every corner of this Roblox fishing adventure, I’m here to guide you through every step needed to reach these elusive areas.
| Location | Prerequisites | Best Rewards | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Chasm | Level 15+ fishing rod, 3x bait, Basic boat | Rare fish worth 500-2000 coins | Medium |
| Mineshaft | Access to The Chasm, Special key, Lantern | Legendary fish worth 5000+ coins, Unique treasures | Hard |
Now, let’s begin our journey to unlocking these hidden treasures!
Understanding The Chasm and Mineshaft
What Are These Locations?
The Chasm is a deep, mysterious gorge located in the northern region of Fisch’s main map. It’s characterized by its dark waters and rocky cliffs, making it both challenging to navigate and rewarding to explore. Many players consider The Chasm to be a mid-game area that separates casual players from dedicated fishermen.
The Mineshaft is an even more secluded area located within The Chasm. It’s an abandoned mining operation that has partially flooded, creating a unique underwater cave system. The Mineshaft is home to some of the rarest fish in the game and contains hidden treasures that can’t be found anywhere else.
Why Are They Valuable?
Both locations offer unique advantages:
- Exclusive Fish Species: The Chasm and Mineshaft contain fish that can’t be caught anywhere else, including the Shadowfin, Crystal Guppy, and the legendary Abyssal Leviathan.
- Higher Value Catches: Fish caught in these areas sell for significantly more than those in regular fishing spots.
- Hidden Treasures: The Mineshaft contains special items and treasures that can be sold for high prices or used to unlock special abilities.
- Achievement Unlocks: Accessing these areas is required for several in-game achievements, which provide permanent bonuses to your fishing abilities.
What Can You Find There?
Here’s a breakdown of the most valuable catches and items:
| Item | Location | Approximate Value | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shadowfin | The Chasm | 1,500 coins | Rare |
| Crystal Guppy | The Chasm | 2,000 coins | Rare |
| Ironfish | Mineshaft | 3,500 coins | Very Rare |
| Diamondfish | Mineshaft | 5,000 coins | Very Rare |
| Abyssal Leviathan | Mineshaft | 10,000 coins | Legendary |
| Miner’s Key | Mineshaft | Unlocks special area | Special |
| Ancient Relics | Mineshaft | 7,500 coins | Very Rare |
Prerequisites and Preparation
Before attempting to access The Chasm and Mineshaft, you’ll need to prepare properly. Here’s everything you need:
Required Equipment
- Fishing Rod: At minimum, you’ll need a Level 15 fishing rod. I recommend the “Deep Sea Pro” rod (Level 20) as it provides better control in the turbulent waters of The Chasm.
- Bait: Stock up on at least 3x high-quality bait. The “Mystic Bait” works best in these areas as it attracts the rarer species.
- Boat: You’ll need a boat that can handle rough waters. The “Stormbreaker” boat is ideal as it has good stability and speed.
- Lantern: Essential for navigating the dark waters of the Mineshaft. The “Everglow Lantern” provides the best visibility.
- Protective Gear: While not mandatory, the “Deep Diver’s Suit” will help you withstand the harsh conditions and allow you to stay longer in these areas.
Level Requirements
- Fishing Level: At least Level 15 to access The Chasm
- Exploration Level: At least Level 10 to navigate the tricky terrain
- Combat Level: At least Level 5 if you want to fend off the occasional sea creature
Items to Bring
- Healing Potions: The Chasm can be dangerous, and you might encounter aggressive fish
- Extra Bait: You don’t want to run out when you’ve finally reached these prime fishing spots
- Storage: Bring extra storage space for your valuable catches
- Navigation Tools: A compass and map will help you stay oriented in the confusing layout of The Chasm
Preparation Tips
- Check the Weather: The Chasm is best accessed during calm weather. Rough seas make navigation nearly impossible.
- Time Your Visit: The rarest fish in these areas appear between 10 PM and 2 AM in-game time.
- Team Up: While it’s possible to access these areas solo, going with a team makes navigation easier and safer.
Step-by-Step Guide to Enter The Chasm
Now that you’re properly prepared, let’s walk through the exact steps to enter The Chasm:
Step 1: Reach the Northern Shores
First, you need to navigate to the northern shores of Fisch’s main island. This is the starting point for your journey to The Chasm.
- Launch your boat from the main harbor
- Head north until you reach the rocky outcrops
- Look for a small, hidden beach between two large rock formations
- Dock your boat at this beach (coordinates: X: 1250, Y: 875)
Pro Tip: The northern shores can be treacherous. Stay close to the coastline to avoid the strongest currents.
Step 2: Find the Hidden Path
Once you’ve docked at the northern beach, you need to find the hidden path that leads to The Chasm.
- Look for a series of strange markings on the largest rock formation
- These markings form a pattern that you need to follow
- The path begins behind a waterfall that’s partially concealed by vegetation
- Follow the narrow trail as it winds upward along the cliffside
Common Mistake: Many players miss the waterfall entrance because they’re looking for an obvious path. The entrance is intentionally hidden to maintain the exclusivity of The Chasm.
Step 3: Navigate the Cliffside Trail
The cliffside trail is challenging and requires careful navigation.
- Watch for loose rocks – they can send you tumbling down
- Use your grappling hook on the marked anchor points
- Time your movements with the wind gusts to maintain balance
- Look for glowing markers that indicate the safest path
Pro Strategy: The glowing markers appear more clearly at night, making the trail easier to navigate despite the darkness.
Step 4: Solve the Entrance Puzzle
At the end of the cliffside trail, you’ll encounter a puzzle that unlocks the entrance to The Chasm.
- You’ll see a series of stone pillars with ancient symbols
- The solution is to activate the pillars in the correct sequence
- The sequence is: Moon, Sun, Wave, Fish, Mountain
- Once activated correctly, a hidden door will reveal itself
Helpful Hint: If you make a mistake, the puzzle resets after 5 minutes. You can try again as many times as needed.
Step 5: Descend into The Chasm
With the puzzle solved, you can now enter The Chasm.
- Follow the stone staircase that spirals downward
- Be prepared for a dramatic change in temperature and atmosphere
- At the bottom, you’ll find a small dock where you can launch a smaller boat
- The waters of The Chasm are dark and mysterious – this is where your adventure truly begins!
Warning: The waters of The Chasm are home to some aggressive fish species. Keep your distance from any fish that appear larger than your boat.
Navigating to The Mineshaft
Once you’ve successfully entered The Chasm, your next goal is to reach the Mineshaft, which is located in the deepest part of this area.
Step 1: Locate the Mineshaft Entrance
The entrance to the Mineshaft isn’t immediately obvious and requires careful exploration.
- Navigate to the northernmost part of The Chasm
- Look for a series of wooden support beams partially submerged in water
- These beams mark the entrance to the Mineshaft
- The entrance is a large, dark opening in the rock face, barely visible above the waterline
Pro Tip: The entrance is easier to spot during the day when light reflects off the water, but the Mineshaft itself is best explored at night when the rare fish are most active.
Step 2: Acquire the Miner’s Key
Before entering the Mineshaft, you’ll need the Miner’s Key, which can be found in The Chasm.
- Fish near the wooden support beams until you catch an Ironfish
- The Ironfish has a 15% chance of carrying the Miner’s Key
- If you don’t get the key on your first catch, keep trying – it’s a random drop
- Once you have the key, you can unlock the main gate to the Mineshaft
Alternative Method: If fishing for the key proves too time-consuming, you can purchase a Miner’s Key from the hidden merchant in The Chasm for 2,000 coins. The merchant appears randomly between 6 PM and midnight.
Step 3: Enter the Mineshaft
With the Miner’s Key in hand, you can now enter the Mineshaft.
- Use the key on the large rusty gate at the entrance
- The gate will open with a loud creak, revealing a dark, flooded tunnel
- Make sure your lantern is lit before entering
- The water inside is cold and moves slowly, so be prepared for a different fishing experience
Important Note: The Mineshaft has a limited oxygen system. You have 15 minutes before you need to return to the surface for air. Plan your exploration accordingly.
Step 4: Navigate the Tunnels
The Mineshaft consists of a series of interconnected tunnels and chambers.
- Start by following the main tunnel straight ahead
- Look for side passages that lead to hidden chambers
- These chambers often contain the rarest fish and most valuable treasures
- Use your lantern to illuminate dark corners where valuable items might be hidden
Pro Strategy: The most valuable treasures are usually found in the deepest chambers, which require navigating through narrow passages. These passages can be identified by the presence of glowing crystals on the walls.
Step 5: Find the Legendary Chamber
Deep within the Mineshaft is the Legendary Chamber, home to the Abyssal Leviathan.
- Continue through the main tunnel until you reach a large, circular chamber
- This chamber has a series of underwater passages radiating outward like spokes on a wheel
- The Legendary Chamber is through the passage marked with a blue crystal
- This is where you’ll find the Abyssal Leviathan, the rarest fish in the game
Warning: The Abyssal Leviathan is extremely difficult to catch. It requires a Level 25+ fishing rod, Master bait, and perfect timing. Most players need multiple attempts before successfully catching it.
Maximizing Your Rewards
Now that you know how to access these areas, let’s discuss how to maximize your rewards once inside.
Best Fishing Spots in The Chasm
- The Deep Pool: Located in the center of The Chasm, this deep pool is home to Shadowfin and Crystal Guppy.
- The Rocky Ledge: On the eastern side of The Chasm, this spot is ideal for catching Ironfish.
- The Underwater Cave: Hidden beneath the western cliff, this cave is where you’ll find the most valuable common fish in The Chasm.
Best Fishing Spots in the Mineshaft
- The Crystal Chamber: The first side chamber on the right is filled with crystals that attract Diamondfish.
- The Flooded Tunnel: The long, straight tunnel is home to various rare fish species.
- The Legendary Chamber: As mentioned earlier, this is where you’ll find the Abyssal Leviathan.
Rare Catches to Look For
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of the rare catches and how to increase your chances of catching them:
| Fish | Location | Best Bait | Best Time | Catching Technique |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shadowfin | The Chasm – Deep Pool | Mystic Bait | 10 PM – 2 AM | Slow reel with occasional quick jerks |
| Crystal Guppy | The Chasm – Rocky Ledge | Crystal Bait | 11 PM – 1 AM | Gentle, steady reeling |
| Ironfish | The Chasm – Underwater Cave | Iron Bait | Any time | Quick, aggressive reeling |
| Diamondfish | Mineshaft – Crystal Chamber | Diamond Bait | 9 PM – 3 AM | Precise timing when fish bites |
| Abyssal Leviathan | Mineshaft – Legendary Chamber | Master Bait | Midnight – 2 AM | Complex pattern of reeling and waiting |
Most Valuable Treasures
Besides fish, these areas contain valuable treasures:
- Ancient Relics: Found in the deepest parts of the Mineshaft, these sell for 7,500 coins each.
- Crystal Shards: Common in The Chasm, these can be sold or used to craft special equipment.
- Miner’s Chests: Hidden throughout the Mineshaft, these contain random valuable items.
- The Chasm Pearl: A rare item found only in The Chasm, worth 5,000 coins.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Even experienced players can make mistakes when exploring The Chasm and Mineshaft. Here are the most common ones and how to avoid them:
Navigation Errors
- Missing the Hidden Path: Many players walk right past the waterfall entrance to the cliffside trail. Look for the unusual pattern of vegetation and listen for the sound of hidden water.
- Getting Lost in The Chasm: The waters of The Chasm can be confusing. Always keep the northern shore in sight when navigating, and drop breadcrumb markers if your game allows it.
- **Running Out of Oxygen in the Mineshaft: The 15-minute oxygen limit is strict. Set a timer when you enter, and always leave 5 minutes for your return journey.
Preparation Mistakes
- Bringing the Wrong Equipment: Using a low-level fishing rod in these areas will result in lost catches and frustration. Make sure you meet the minimum requirements before attempting to enter.
- Forgetting Bait: Nothing’s worse than reaching these prime fishing spots only to realize you’ve forgotten to bring enough bait. Stock up before you begin your journey.
- Not Checking the Weather: The Chasm is nearly impossible to navigate during storms. Check the weather forecast before starting your journey.
Fishing Mistakes
- Using the Wrong Technique: Each rare fish requires a specific reeling technique. Using the wrong method will result in lost catches.
- Fishing at the Wrong Time: The rarest fish only appear during specific time windows. Plan your visits accordingly.
- Not Being Patient: Catching the legendary fish can take many attempts. Don’t get discouraged and give up too quickly.
Pro Strategies for Efficient Navigation
To help you make the most of your time in The Chasm and Mineshaft, here are some advanced strategies:
Speed Runs
- Memorize the Path: After your first few visits, memorize the exact route to minimize travel time.
- Use Shortcuts: There are several shortcuts in the cliffside trail that experienced players use. Look for alternate paths that bypass some of the more difficult sections.

Resource Management

- Inventory Optimization: Organize your inventory to quickly access needed items without wasting time.

FAQ Section
What level do I need to be to access The Chasm?
You need at least a Level 15 fishing rod to access The Chasm. However, I recommend reaching Level 20 with a “Deep Sea Pro” rod for the best experience. Additionally, you should have an Exploration Level of 10 and a Combat Level of 5 to handle the challenges in these areas.
Can I enter The Chasm alone or do I need a team?
While it’s possible to enter The Chasm alone, I recommend going with at least one other player. The Mineshaft, in particular, is much easier to navigate with a team. Having teammates allows you to cover more ground, watch for dangers, and share resources. For attempting to catch the Abyssal Leviathan, a team of 3-4 players is ideal.
