If you want to complete your fish collection or simply stock up on useful consumables, the Fortnite pro fishing rod will be your best friend. This item — which arrived on Apollo Island at the beginning of Season 4 — allows you to fish the different varieties of fish present in-game.
Very recently, dataminer Hypex — to whom we owe many leaks on the current episode of the battle royale — got his hands on the percentages of chances to catch all the different fishs with a pro fishing rod (rare).

At the time of writing — and even if it appears in the files — the Midas Flopper cannot be fished yet. It's also possible, as Hypex indicates, that the drop rate indicated (0.00004%) is only a placeholder used by the developers, which may be modified when it's officially released in-game.
