The fishing rod debuts as an inventory item in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]''. The fishing rod was crafted by [[Colin]]; his father, [[Rusl]], told him to wait for Link before giving it to him. When Link talks to Colin, he refers him to go ask his mother, [[Uli]], for the fishing rod. Uli only gives Link the fishing rod once he has carried a [[cradle]] to her house.

While fishing, Link can use two types of bait, [[bee larva]]e and [[worm]]s, to increase the chance of a fish biting the fishing rod. Link eventually obtains the [[coral earring]], a replacement hook that allows him to catch a [[reekfish]]. There are also two obtainable lures, the [[sinking lure]] and the [[frog lure]].

Another kind of fishing rod, which makes use of lures, is used within the confines of [[Hena]]'s [[fishing hole]]. Unlike Link's fishing rod, which relies solely on pulling to land a fish, the one used in the fishing hole has a reel. In the [[Wii]] release, the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Nunchuk]] is used as a controller in a similar fashion to the fishing reel.
