If you’re hunting for the Cursed Touch Cathulid or the Cursed Touched Cathulith in Roblox Fisch, you’re in the right place. These exotic fish aren’t just rare, they’re downright spooky. But don’t worry, with the right setup, fishing spot, and a bit of timing, you can snag them without losing your sanity to the Cultist depths. In this guide, I’ll break down everything from mutations to trade-ins, so you can get your Lucid Reel and complete your collection.
Step 1: Use Great Dreamer Rod to Get the Cursed Touch Mutation

Before you even see the Cathulid or Cathulith, you need the Great Dreamer Rod, which is the key to getting the Cursed Touch mutation.
- Tool required: Great Dreamer Rod
- Location: Cursed Isle in the First Sea (formerly at The Cursed Shores in the Second Sea)
- Why: This rod makes getting the Cursed Touch mutation easy and consistent; 50% chance to apply Cursed Touch mutation to the fish you catch.
- Pro tip: You’ll need this mutation to trade in for the Lucid Reel later, so don’t skip it.
Step 2: Find the Spawn Location
Both fish only appear in Cultist Lair under very specific conditions:
- Cathulid: Hall of Whispers, night, foggy, Autumn
- Cathulith: Passage of Oaths, night, foggy, Spring
If it’s not night in-game, use a Sundial to instantly spawn night and trigger their appearance.
Step 3: Use Your Fish Radar
Make sure your Fish Radar is on, it’s essential to locate these elusive exotics.
- Zones:
- Cathulid: Hall of Whispers (Cultist Lair)
- Cathulith: Passage of Oaths (Cultist Lair)
- Bug alert: Sometimes the message banner for their spawn is bugged. Don’t rely on it, always check the zones with your radar.
Step 4: Catch the Right Fish

Once you’ve found the spawn:
- Look for Cthulhu Abundance (Cathulid or Cathulith) or similar in the zone.
- Best setup: Use a Mutation Totem during an Aurora event for optimal mutation chances.
- Exotic fish behavior: Both move erratically across the fishing bar. Cathulith even reduces progress speed by 60%, so patience is key.
- Catch quips:
- Cathulid: “A Cathulid! Eldritch whisperer! Tentacles twitch!”
- Cathulith: “A CATHULITH! ANCIENT ABOMINATION! WRITHE IN FEAR!”
- Preferred bait: Squid
- Goal: Make sure the fish has the correct mutation when you hook it.
Step 5: Trade for the Lucid Reel

Once you’ve caught the properly mutated fish:
- Head back to Tessael
- Trade the Cathulid or Cathulith
- Congratulations! You now have the Lucid Reel and the final item in your Fish collection.
