Stardew Valley, legendary fish and how to catch them

Fishing in Stardew Valley is very important. In fact, not only can we get fish of all kinds, but it is also possible to get treasure chests with a large number of interesting and even exclusive items. However, the most complete players are sure to have their sights set on getting all the legendary fish in the game. Today we will tell you what they are, how to get them and give you some tips and tricks for fishing them.

Legendary fish in Stardew Valley

The first thing you should know is that the game divides these types of fish into Legendary Fish I and Legendary Fish II . In any case, all of them are caught under specific circumstances. And the truth is that it is not easy to get them. To be more specific, when we collect the fishing line, these fish appear with a hat on . And be careful, because legendary fish can only be caught once per game.

How do you know where to find them? The key is in the Lost Book called “Secrets of the Legendary Fish” , which tells us the seasons and locations of all of them. As for the difficulty of catching them, it requires higher fishing skills than just hooking the fish, especially from the food bonuses . And having certain materials will help.

Tips and tricks for catching legendary fish in Stardew Valley

It is true that there is a certain element of luck and randomness in how fiercely the fish moves each time it appears, but there are a number of tips that can help us make it easier. They are the following:

  • You need to be quick to catch them, so it is essential to have the fishing skill at level 10 .
  • If you want to catch the Mutant Carp , you will need the Pelican Town Sewer Key. Also, keep in mind that it doesn’t matter what time of day you want to catch it.
  • For the Legendary Fish , it is necessary that we are in the spring season and we will have to go to the mountain lake. And although the time will not matter, it is necessary that it is raining. Be patient because it is one of the most complicated.
  • As for the anglerfish , we can only go to Pelican Village in autumn. The time and weather don’t matter and it’s very easy to catch it.
  • The crimson fish , on the other hand, will only be found on the beach. In addition, we have to cast the rod into the deep part of the ocean.
  • The Glacial Fish is in the Cinder Forest and any time or weather will do. In this chaos, it is recommended to have at least level 6 in fishing.
  • Please note that the five Legendary Fish II can only be caught while the Mr. Qi’s Expanded Family quest is active. They are the next ones we will cover.
  • Starting with the Crimson Fish Son , which is east of Willy on the beach. Requires level 5 fishing.
  • As for Mrs. Angler , she is north of JojaMart on the wooden bridge. And requires level 3 fishing.
  • If we look at the Legend II fish , it is found in the Mountain Lake and requires level 10 fishing.
  • Now it’s the turn of the Young Glacial Fish , which is located at the southern end of the Cinder Forest near the Ruined House. And it requires level 6 fishing.
  • And finally we have the Radioactive Carp , which is in the sewers and which shouldn’t be too difficult to catch.

Changing the subject slightly, since we’re talking about one of the game’s main activities , remember that another vital facet of the title is the farm . And in this house we also have published other guides for the game, such as the one that will help you build stables for livestock .
