The most basic way to get the New Year's Mutation is to fish in any water body in the game. This method is the best if you are not actively seeking it out, as you can run into it randomly while playing the game. The odds of getting it naturally are low, making it the least efficient method as well.

Employing the New Year's Rod is the best way to get the New Year's Mutation. This fishing rod’s passive ability grants you a 15% chance to get the Mutation on any fish. If you’re actively pursuing the Mutation for collection purposes, the New Year's Rod is a must-have tool. You can buy it in Moosewood for 20,260 C$ near the New Year's NPC.

Lastly, you can have your fish appraised at the Appraiser to get the New Year's Mutation. This is the least effective method of getting the Mutation, as it has a 0.078% chance of yielding it. Consider not relying on the Appraiser if you’re looking to collect a fish with the New Year's Mutation. It would be better to simply catch the desired fish again with the New Year's Rod to get it instead of relying on the Appraiser.
