Spear Fishing is a popular Roblox experience where you need to use a harpoon and catch fish. While many harpoons are affordable with coins, some require Robux or special conditions to unlock, which can lead you to waste resources on sub-optimal picks. Choosing the right harpoon early on can greatly increase your progress and help you reach new fishing zones faster. So, to help you pick the right ones, here's a complete Spear Fishing Harpoon Tier List with all harpoons ranked from best to worst based on damage and every other attribute.
Spear Fishing Tier List - All Harpoons Ranked
| Tier | Harpoons |
|---|---|
| S | Pirate Spear, Star Trident, Guardian Trident, Abyss Trident, Forest Trident |
| A | Sea King Trident, Steel Harpoon, Refined Harpoon |
| B | Alloy Harpoon, Divine Trident |
| C | Basic Harpoon, Green Flame Trident, Blazing Trident, Thunder Trident |
The above tier list gives you an overview of every available Harpoon in Spear Fishing and how they fare against each other. Some of them might have good stats, but may not be worth upgrading to. So, the S tier Harpoons are the best ones for their progression level, while the C tier ones are the worst picks regardless of progression.

How to Change Harpoon in Spear Fishing
Changing your harpoon is quite easy and can be done at any time once you've bought or unlocked a new one.
- Walk up to HarpoonShop NPC David, located in any major town.
- Interact with him to open the shop interface.
- Once you’ve purchased a new harpoon, go to the Equip Menu.
- Select the Harpoon Tab and equip the desired harpoon from your list of unlocked gear.
Make sure you choose based on your current progress. If you’re in the early zones, you don’t need anything beyond Steel or Sea King Trident. You should save coins till the Forest or Star Trident Harpoons become available.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Subjectively, Pirate Spear is the strongest overall, thanks to its unmatched damage and crit chance. However, Star Trident and Guardian Trident offer incredible value for their price and are easily the best for free-to-play players.
Not recommended. While the Thunder Trident has insane stats, it’s vastly overpriced compared to the Pirate or Star Trident, both of which can be earned with in-game coins.
