For many players,fishing is the most difficult skillto master inStardew Valley,and completing the Fish Tank Bundle will require learning the ropes. With 1.6 introducing new details and tricks for every aspect of the game,farmers everywhere are starting up new savesand working on bringing the Community Center back to its former glory. To complete the Community Center, you will have to collect the bounty of the valley using every skill they have.

To start,you should upgrade to at least theFiberglass Rod, which will allow adding bait that speeds up the fishing process. Advancing to the Iridium Rod will allow adding tackle, which will make catching morefinicky and legendary fisha much less frustrating process.
River Fish Bundle
Any River In The Valley Can Produce These Fish
The River Fish Bundle features four fish of varying difficulty. Two of the four fish can only be caught in rainy weather, sokeeping an eye on the forecastwhen trying to complete this bundle is essential. Most of the river fish are fairly easy to catch, with the exception of theCatfish, which can be tricky for players less experienced in fishing inStardew Valley.

Most of the River Fish Bundlecan be caught in Spring, so this bundle isfairly easy to knock out of the wayuntil Fall when the Tiger Trout comes into season. The reward of Deluxe Bait for this bundle will help in catching other more difficult fish for the different bundles, so the River Fish Bundle is a nice one to complete early.

Lake Fish Bundle
The Mountain Lake Is The Best Place For This Bundle
Unlike other bundles,the Lake Fish Bundle doesn’t factor in weather. You can fish for almost every fish in this bundle in any season, asthe Bullhead, Carp, and Largemouth Bass can be found in any weather in every season(except the Carp in the Mountain Lake in Winter). The reward for this bundle is one Dressed Spinner, which is a nice prize to use once you have upgraded your fishing rod.
The most difficult fish in this bundle is the Sturgeon, which can only be caught before 7 pm in Summer and Winter. The Sturgeon is a difficult fish to reel in with its bouncy pattern in the fishing minigame, so players may have to be persistent while perusing this catch. If you are lucky, you will geta fish frenzy in the Mountain LakeforSturgeon, allowing them to try repeatedly for the slippery fellow.

Ocean Fish Bundle
Take To The Beach For Summer
The Ocean may be among the first places you will cast your rod after Willy gifts them his old fishing rod. The very first fish they catch may be in the Ocean Fish Bundle sinceSardines are in season in Spring during the day. Besides the Sardine,every other fish in this bundle is in the Summer season. One good fishing day before 2 pm in Summer could score you every fish in the bundle, with the exception of the Red Snapper.
Stardew Valley Fan Discovers Essential Tip For Making Watering Crops A Breeze In 1.6 Update
A Stardew Valley fan has found an interesting mechanic that some may not have known existed, but it is imperative for quick money-making.
To catch the Red Snapper, you must plana fishing trip in either Summer or Fall when the forecast calls for rain. The Red Snapper is one of the more difficult fish to catch in the Ocean Fish Bundle, with its erratic pattern making catching one hard at first. Once you encounter the Red Snapper more than once,it’ll become easier to predict and reel the pattern. After this bundle is completed, you will receive five Warp Totems for the Beach, which teleports them to the sandy shores for even more ocean fishing.

Night Fishing Bundle
Fishing In The Rainy Dark
Fishing after dark makes thisone of the more difficult bundles to complete, especially since two of the three fish will only appear when there’s rainy weather. Thankfully, the third fish, the Bream, is much easier to catch and appears in any river in all four seasons after 6 pm. The other two fish are more elusive, as the Eel is only found inthe Ocean during rainy weather after 4 pm during Spring and Fall. The Walleye will only appear inFall during rainy weather after 12 pm in rivers, the Mountain Lake, and the Cindersap Forest Pond, making it one of the more difficult fish to catch.
Thankfully, if you never get a chance to snag the Walleye in the fall, they canuse a Rain Totem in winter to give themselves another chancesince it will appear in rainy winter weather. Snowy forecasts don’t count, so the Rain Totem must be used to bring out the Walleye.

Crab Pot Bundle
Sit Back And Let These Fish Catch Themselves
The Crab Pot Bundle is the easiest of all the bundles for players to finish up since all players need to do isplace a crab pot, load it with bait, and wait for the fish and shellfish to be caught. You don’t even need a Crab Pot to get started on this bundle, asfour slots are items that can be found by foraging on the Beach. However, if you have started a new save for 1.6 and chosenStardew Valley’s new Meadowlands Farm, then they should invest in Crab Pots to place in their rivers.
To get a Crab Pot, youmust reach Fishing level three. At that point, you cancraft your own Crab Pots or buy them from Willy’s shop. It takes three iron bars, alongside 40 wood, to craft a single Crab Pot, so it may be worth purchasing one from Willy for 1,500g if players haven’t progressed far enough into the Mines to have extra iron bars.
Freshwater (River and Lake)
Specialty Fish Bundle
Every Part Of The Valley Is Required
This final bundle includes fish locked behind different parts ofStardew Valley’s map, which encourages – or forces – newerplayers to explore more of Pelican Town and the surrounding areas. Thankfully, three of the four fish areavailable in all seasons, so players can reel them in wheneverthey can access particular areas. One fish should be prioritized, as it will only appear four hours daily in sunny weather, exclusively in Summer. That fish isthe Pufferfish, which must be caught in the Oceanand, thankfully, isn’t too difficult to reel in.
