One of Stardew Valley's fun and rewarding tasks is fishing. That comes as no surprise, as any farm simulation game like this modern day classic would not be complete with a comprehensive fishing feature and mechanic. Aside from being a source of income, Stardew Valley fishing is an integral part of the Community Center.
Although the Stardew Valley fishing system is easy to learn, there are multiple layers to explore in order to truly master it. A beginner player may find all the nuances overwhelming. But not to worry! Here is the Stardew Valley fishing guide from beginning to end, including how to catch the Legendary Fish!
Stardew Valley Fishing: The Basics
The environment, seasons, and locations in Stardew Valley all have a huge part in the day-to-day activities. It is a very straightforward approach to applying real world environmental effects to the game. It affects everything from the plants that can be grown, the fruits you can forage, to the schedules of the people in the game.
With regard to fishing, the types of fish that you can try catching will differ depending on the location, weather, and the time of day. So these should be taken into consideration as you progress with your fishing efforts.
But before you even start looking for fish, you have to learn how to fish first. Go visit Willy at the Docks. Willy is the proprietor of the fish shop.
