Old Braided Rope is a resource that’s found pretty much in the last place you’d think to look. And even when you do know where to find it, there’s still a lot of luck involved in how easy or tough it is to find. If you’re struggling to obtain this item, here’s how to get Old Braided Rope in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

How to get Old Braided Rope in Wishblossom Ranch in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Old Braided Rope can be fished out of water throughout the Wishing Alps biome in Wishblossom Ranch using your Royal Fishing Rod. You must fish in open water only to have a chance of finding it. This means you should ignore all white, blue, and gold ripple spots you come across and instead focus only on flat, still water to find it.

As is the case with all Fish and fishable items, what you catch is based on RNG and comes down to luck. You might find an Old Braided Rope on your first catch, or it may instead take you several tries to get just one.

Because of how tough this resource can be to obtain, it’s a good idea to bring a fishing buddy with you when hunting for it. If you do, every Old Braided Rope you find might spawn some extra on the ground nearby if your village friend happens to find some.

Where to find Old Braided Rope in Disney Dreamlight Valley

You can find Old Braided Rope in all regions of the Wishing Alps biome, including Wishblossom Ranch, Wishing Way, Delver Dale, Ranch Highlands, and Silver Summit. This portion of the map is quite large, so it can be a bit tough to know where to look.

Here are all the bodies of water you can fish out of to find Old Braided Rope around Wishing Alps.

There’s plenty more to tackle around Wishblossom Ranch once you’re done gathering this item, like feeding Geese, unlocking Cruella, getting Goofy’s Stall up and running, and cooking all Wishblossom Ranch recipes.
