Pirate Megalodon: The Permanent Legend
What Makes Pirate Megalodon Special?
The Pirate Megalodon stands out as one of the most impressive permanent secret fish in Fish It Roblox. Unlike many other rare fish that come and go with events, this massive predator is always available – if you know where to look and have the patience of a true fishing legend.
Key Characteristics:
- Permanent secret fish – never leaves the game
- Extreme rarity – 1 in 5,000,000 drop rate
- Mythic-tier classification – among the most valuable catches
- Location-specific – only appears at Pirate Cove Island
The Critical Location Factor
Here’s where most players go wrong: Pirate Megalodon can ONLY be caught at Pirate Cove Island. I cannot stress this enough – fishing anywhere else gives you a zero percent chance of catching this legendary shark.
Confirmed Locations:
- ✅ Pirate Cove Island – Primary location
- ✅ Treasure Room – Secondary location (after quest completion)
- ❌ Ocean – No chance
- ❌ Tropical Grove – No chance
- ❌ Any other fishing area – No chance
Optimal Setup for Pirate Megalodon Hunting
Given the brutal 1 in 5,000,000 drop rate, you need every advantage possible. Here’s my recommended setup:
Best Rods:
- Diamond Rod – Highest base stats for secret fishing
- Element Rod – Excellent alternative with strong secret chance
- Any rod with Secret Hunter enchant – Non-negotiable for serious hunting
Essential Enchants:
- Secret Hunter – Increases secret fish catch rate significantly
- Luck-based enchants – Every bit helps with such low odds
Supporting Items:
- Luck totems – Stackable luck bonuses
- General fishing buffs – Any boost to your fishing power
- Server bonuses – Join during active events for extra luck
Proven Farming Strategy
After analyzing hundreds of successful catches, here’s the most effective approach:
- Positioning is everything – Ensure your hook is fully inside the Pirate Cove fishing zone. Even being slightly outside reduces your chances to zero.
- Choose your spot wisely – Find a consistent location within Pirate Cove and stick with it. Many successful catches come from players who remain patient in one spot.
- Camera zoom technique – Zoom out your camera to confirm your hook position is within the correct fishing zone.
- Prepare for the long haul – Set realistic expectations. Many players report thousands of casts before success, with some needing hundreds of thousands.
- Maintain inventory space – Nothing’s worse than finally catching Pirate Megalodon only to have a full inventory.
Leviathan: The Event-Exclusive Behemoth
Understanding Leviathan’s Unique Nature
The Leviathan is completely different from Pirate Megalodon in terms of availability. This isn’t just rare – it’s event-exclusive, meaning you can only catch it during specific time windows.
Critical Distinction:
- Leviathan (secret fish) ≠ Leviathan Rage (mutation)
- Cannot be fished normally outside events
- Only appears during special conditions
When and Where to Find Leviathan?
Based on extensive research and player reports, Leviathan appears during:
Primary Events:
- Leviathan Rage Event – The main opportunity to catch this beast
- Admin Abuse events – Special admin-hosted events with increased luck
Best Locations During Events:
- Ocean – Large open waters
- Large fish spawn areas – Where big fish naturally gather
- Popular secret farming locations – Areas known for rare catches
The Depths: Hidden Leviathan Encounter
After completing the Carpenter’s TNT quest in Pirate Cove, players unlock access to The Depths – a maze-like underwater area that hosts cinematic Leviathan encounters.
What Makes The Depths Special:
- Requires diving gear to access
- Features enchant stones and future quest elements
- Contains 200,000 Global Luck for 10 minutes during Leviathan encounters
- One of the most valuable areas for high-tier fishing
Maximizing Leviathan Catch Chances
When the event is active, use this optimized approach:
- Event timing is crucial – Drop everything when Leviathan Rage is announced. These events are limited and unpredictable.
- Rod preparation – Use the same setup as Pirate Megalodon: Diamond/Element Rod with Secret Hunter enchant.
- Buff stacking – Activate every luck-boosting item available:
- Luck totems
- Event-specific buffs
- Any supporting potions or items
- Location rotation – Try multiple recommended spots during the event to maximize coverage.
- Server hopping – During events, consider switching to less populated servers for potentially better spawn rates.
Advanced Strategies and Pro Tips
The Treasure Room Advantage
For those who complete the Black Pearl and Dead Skeleton questlines, the Treasure Room becomes accessible – potentially the best fishing spot in the game:
- 5 mythic fish available (vs. 3 in standard areas)
- Best money-making location in the current meta
- Higher concentration of rare and secret fish
- Requires quest completion for access
Event Pass Optimization
The Pirate Event Pass is completely free-to-play and offers significant advantages:
- 3,000 tokens per day from daily quests
- 2,000 tokens bonus for catching mythic fish

- Enchant Stones – Essential for rod upgrades
