Indeed, this was one of the technical upgrades in Fortnite that is different from others. With the new meta being driven by mythic weapons from the Avengers, players are finding alternative ways to take advantage of fishing.

“First thing you want to do is come to The Authority, because it is only found in this area.” Tabor Hill also suggested that players should try it in Battle Lab first because it is quite strenuous to wait that long in a match. There is a significant parallel over here, as The Authority used to be Midas’s old home. This fuels the theory that the Midas Fish is just another version of him from a different dimension.
“Next thing you want to do is get yourself a Pro Fishing Rod.” With the recent update, Epic Games removed the explosive on water technique for fishing. Additionally, in order to catch high ranked fishes, one has to use the Fishing Rods.

The rumors that the Midas Fish changes the entire inventory were tested. The Pistol did not change the level, however, every other gun was increased to Legendary status. Thus, this proved that the Midas flopper indeed turns the inventory to Gold.
Players need to search every fishing hole in and about The Authority to get one of these. However, it is best to try it out first in the Lab. They would need to be extra cautious while doing it in a match.
