Fishing in Stardew Valley
Fishing is a popular activity in Stardew Valley, and one of the many fish that can be caught is the Sunfish. This elusive creature can be found in various bodies of water, including rivers, farms, and even the ocean. While it may not be the most profitable fish to catch, the Sunfish is an essential component in completing the River Fish Bundle in the Community Center’s Fish Tank. Getting a Sunfish
Players can catch a Sunfish in Stardew Valley by fishing in the river on windy or sunny days during the Spring and Summer, between 6 AM and 7 PM. This is the most straightforward way to catch a Sunfish, and it requires no special bait or equipment. However, it’s worth noting that Sunfish can be finicky and may not bite every time. Here are some specific locations where Sunfish can be found:
- Riverlands Farm
- Forest Farm
- Hill-top Farm
In addition to fishing, Sunfish can also be caught by visiting the Traveling Cart on Fridays and Sundays, checking trash cans on lucky days, or receiving it as a gift from a pet cat with maximum friendship.
What to Do With the Sunfish
The Sunfish is a versatile fish that can be used in various ways, depending on the player’s goals and preferences. Here are some options:
- Sell the Sunfish
- Gift the Sunfish
- Use the Sunfish for cooking
Selling the Sunfish
The Sunfish is required to complete the River Fish Bundle in the Community Center’s Fish Tank, so it’s essential to save a Sunfish for this purpose. However, if you’re not playing the JojaMart route, you can sell the Sunfish for 30g. If you have the Iridium quality, you can sell it for up to 60g. Additionally, if you have the Angler profession at Fishing Level 10, each Sunfish will be worth 90g. On the other hand, if you process the Sunfish, you can turn it into roe and age it until it’s worth 146g. Gifting the Sunfish
Villagers in Stardew Valley have a unique reaction to the Sunfish, ranging from hatred to neutrality.
