Tragedy Reef

Tragedy Reef is the first of two Islands in the Roperian Garbage Patch region and was first released on Dec 3, 2018.

Tragedy Reef[edit]

Description: Tragedy Reef was once a lovely tropical reef ideal for surfing and sunbathing, but it's been completely trashed by careless and greedy people ... it's by far the most tragic situation in Roperia!

(To see what the island looks like behind the shadows, click here!)

Unlocking Tragedy Reef[edit]

Progress through The story of Roperian Garbage Patch Adventure which requires either catching a Double Reignbow Fish (requires level 750 Cold Fusion AND level 750 Holy Hybrid poles), or paying 250 RLC to bypass that. You'll then need to buy a bunch of equipment at Glacier Shack's pole shack.

What to Buy[edit]

Equipment for The story of Roperian Garbage Patch Adventure is bought at Glacier Shack.

How to Play[edit]

The Deputy or Remediator can be found at the Glacier Shack pole shack. They cost 1,500 silver each (more if you purchased them when they first came out).It is strongly recommended to work on the first five Deputy Quests and first five Remediator Quests as you need to complete both to level your pole past 55 and to unlock the next island.


The Trash Trimmer and Bounty Hunter Licenses can be found after the bottom of any of the purchasing poles/add-ons/chum lists. They cost 99,999 and 49,999 silver respectively.

Using the Trash Trimmer, you must "Trim" the trash, which will clear out the area for 60 minutes, during which you can fish as normal. When used, it gives you a chance at finding a piece of the Trimmed Tragedy Collectables set. If you have handed in this set, then the Trim will clear out the area for much longer, and you will no longer be required to Trim before fishing, but you can Trim anyways to try to get more Collectables.[1] Trimming will also reset the timer for the Garbage Sweeper in Plastic Island and vice versa. It may also affect other timer based activities such as the Drilling with the Auger in Lake Freezberg.

You also need to have a Bounty Hunter License which has to be renewed every 30 days. If this is not renewed, you risk the chance of being caught by the Roperian Coast Guard, which will result in being deported to Glacier Shack and a fine of 20,000 silver. You can get a license from handing in a set of the relevant Collectables, or you might luck out and occasionally find one when skimming trash with the Trash Trimmer. If you have licenses from handing in Collectables, be sure to Activate that one instead of selecting Renew, otherwise you'll be paying the 49,999 silver to buy a license.

NOTE: You can sneak onto this island without a renewed license when you are doing the tournament. Be sure to hop off the island right afterwards and do not do any other activities besides setting your poles/chums and casting your 15: no trimming, no skips, no opening chests, no visiting shops, and no refreshing the screen by clicking on the logo.[2]

Moving on[edit]

In order to move on to Plastic Island and to unlock any pole leveling beyond 55, you'll need to complete the first five Remediator Quests and the first five Deputy Quests.
