Ah, fishing. Loved by many and hated by many players in Stardew Community. It’s tricky until the player gets used to the whole mechanic of catching the fish. If you are a full-on completionist and fishing enthusiast (in Stardew at least) you will learn where and when to catch each fish so you can at last complete the Fish collection. As the title suggests, I will also include Stardew Expanded fish, so if you had trouble finding that information ( like me some time ago) this article is going to make up for it.
Tackles
But first I want to tell you about tackles, as they will definitely be your friend when it comes to catching legendary and other rare fish. Also, once you obtain recipes for tackles, be sure to always craft them as it can save you a lot of money.
The best tackles are:
- Trap – This tackle is good only for the easier type of fish because it can mess up your fishing process for rarer fish, especially for Legendary ones.
- Spinner – Increases fish bite rate and combined with bait it can do wonders.
- Cork – Makes your fish bar bigger. However, the fish bar will increase with the fishing level so it’s better to equip one of the above if you already have high level fishing.
Other tackles are not so good and you can completely ignore them. But if you fancy some of them, feel free to use them.
