Ranked on what a rod does for your session, not raw stat totals. A cheap rod that doubles your crate rate beats an expensive one that adds 20% luck.
The tier list above is the map. This is how to read it for your exact situation.
You want the most casts per hour: lure speed first, control second. Look at B–A tier rods in the C$50k–$200k range — Champions Rod is the classic speed farmer.
Chase luck to pull Mythical/Exotic shadows. The Destiny Rod is the mid-game luck king; end-game SS rods push it further.
Weight snaps your line — you need max weight + resilience (or an Infinite-weight rod). Trident Rod and Cerulean Fang Rod are built for this.
