Overview
Events are occurrences that randomly take place in a server, with some being able to be triggered using various items such as Totems. They can range from providing temporary server-wide effects to spawning exclusive fish. Some events are tied to conditions such as the daytime cycle or real-life occasions, whilst others may occur at any time. Typically, a text describing the event displays at the top/bottom of the player’s screen when an event takes place. (Daytime cycles are 15 minutes long)
Time and Weather Events
The in-game weather, time, and season can influence the catch rate of some fish. Totems can be used to control weather conditions or accelerate the flow of time.
Time
Day and night cycle
The day and night cycle refers to the rising and setting of the Sun and Moon, which can affect catch rates of Diurnal Fish or Nocturnal Fish.
- A day lasts approximately 25 minutes, with 12.5 minutes of day and 12.5 minutes of night.
- Certain factors, such as server lag, may slightly extend this duration.
- A Sundial Totem can be used to speed up the celestial cycle.
- When outside of a fish's preferred time, assuming it has one, its spawn rate will be reduced by 90%.
- The Nocturnal Rod's passive disables this effect.
Some Events depend on the day/night cycle to manifest (e.g., Night of the Fireflies).

Weather
Many fish have higher chances of being caught depending on the weather. All weather conditions other than Clear can be summoned immediately with their respective Totem item. There is no particular order for Weather to come in, as they are chosen at random at the start of every new day or night; thus a weather condition can seem 'extended' when it is rolled twice in a row. During a fish's preferred weather, its spawn rate will be increased by 35%. Weather Conditions
Seasons
Seasons are universal across all servers. Each season lasts 576 real-life minutes, or approximately 9.6 hours.
- During a fish's preferred season, its spawn rate will be increased by 25%.
- The Seasons Rod further increases this by a multiplicative 20%, up to a total boost of 50%.
- Otherwise, its spawn rate will be reduced by 15% - even if it doesn't have a preferred season at all.
Seasons & Other:
Earth and Space Events
Eclipse
- The Eclipse occurs rarely as the day begins, or can be summoned via an Eclipse Totem (250,000C$). When it happens, the server becomes darker and in the sky there is a golden/orange ring in the sky representing the eclipse. Other things that happen during an Eclipse are:

- When caught, it will play a animation of player catching Megalodon.
- The event will despawn after roughly 15 minutes, if no one is able to catch one prior.
- All forms of Megalodon weigh 50,000kg minimum, hence rods with a weight limit of 50,000kg are required to catch them.
