Open your Magic Conch and teleport to the Fischfest 2 island — the same summer event zone tied to Moosewood’s giant shell. Once you land, head toward the large Sand Castle and walk behind it. The desert opens up almost out of nowhere just past that point. Don’t be surprised if a dust storm greets you on arrival; just wait it out and the area clears. If you’re new to Fischfest 2 itself, my Fischfest 2 Mini-Games Guide covers the island’s other activities first.
Most Drylands fish live under the sand, not in water, so a normal rod won’t cut it. Here’s the unlock path:
Regular rods still work fine in the oasis pools and Claypan water — only the dune-buried catches require the Sand Sifter setup.
A massive prehistoric predator now tunnels beneath the Drylands, and getting too close during exploration is genuinely dangerous. To progress Petri’s questline toward the endgame reward:
Completing all three earns a serum — pour it into the Sunken Reservoir during a sandstorm to summon the true Terrosunder. Beating it drops the Dune Relic, and using the hourglass 14 times over 7 days unlocks the Terroscuttler Companion, the update’s signature reward.
Beyond the Marrow Rod, the Terrotrapper Rod is worth crafting separately (100,000 C$, Fossilized Opal, Terrosunder Scale) for its 210% Luck and boosted mutated-fish odds, making it the top pick for serious Drylands grinding. If you’re comparing it against your current setup, check my Fisch Rod Tier List to see where it stacks up. The Dune Enchantment also lets any existing rod fish the sand without switching gear entirely.
The Drylands runs its own weather cycle that gates specific catches. Dust Storms reduce visibility but boost Luck and unlock exclusive fish, while rare Torrential Rain floods the Claypans with temporary catches. Alongside the desert, a limited-time Independence Day event runs at Fischfest — visit Liberty Larry to complete Patriot Shark Hunts and claim exclusive seasonal rewards before it ends. The update also buffed several companions, including Beak Bill, Penguin Pal, and Silly Seal, so check my Fisch Admin Abuse Guide for other ways to stack rewards during active events.
Only for sand-buried fish — the Marrow Rod with Sand Sifter is required. Oasis and Claypan water work with any regular rod.
Yes, it’s a roaming world predator that can kill you if you get too close while exploring, especially during sandstorms.
After defeating the true Terrosunder, you need to use the hourglass 14 times across a 7-day period.
Yes, the desert region stays permanently — only the Independence Day side event and Liberty Larry rewards are time-limited.
