What Is a Fishing Bundle in Stardew Valley?
The fishing bundle in Stardew Valley is one of the bundles you must complete if you wish to accomplish the Community Center. It will also be unlocked at the same time as the Pantry after finishing the Crafts Room.
Just like any other Community Center bundle, the fishing bundle will also require several fish types in order to complete. And upon finishing it, specific rewards will always be given.
If you are wondering why you have to finish this bundle as well, it is to help the Community Center regain its beauty and quality like a brand new one. If we are basing on the story of the game, another reason to finish this bundle is to help Pierre win the Community Center over JojaMart and Morris.
However, finishing this bundle is no easy task for you. This particular bundle still requires you to successfully complete another six bundles about fishing. But, if you are into fishing and have chosen the perfect set of fishing skills, this might seem easier for you compared to other previous bundles.
At first, the fish tank will appear old and damaged. To repair the fish tank, you must look for different types of fish to fill the six bundles.
Having said that, we made this guide for you to understand how you can easily finish the fishing bundle in Stardew Valley in the Community Center.
Guide for Fishing Bundle in Stardew Valley
As mentioned earlier, you cannot just provide any fish type that you can catch. There is a required fish type needed per bundle.
To make it easier for you, we provided a detailed list of fish type requirements for each fishing bundle in Stardew Valley. This will be for the River Bundle, Lake Bundle, Ocean Bundle, Night Fishing Bundle, Crab Pot Bundle, and Specialty Bundle.
River Bundle
For the river bundle, you will need the following fish types: Catfish, Shad, Sunfish, and Tiger Trout. Among all the bundles, this is relatively the easiest to complete because of their locations. All these four fishes can be found in the Cindersap Forest. But for more chances of catching these, here’s more detailed information.
- Catfish – Cindersap Forest, Pelican Town, Secret Woods, Witch’s Swamp
- Shad – Cindersap Forest, Pelican Town
- Sunfish – Cindersap Forest, Pelican Town
- Tiger Trout – Cindersap Forest, Pelican Town
For the Catfish and Sunfish, there is also a chance of them appearing on Riverlands Farm and Hilltop Farm.
Upon finishing this, you will obtain 30 baits.
Lake Bundle
Four types of fish are also needed for this bundle. These are Bullhead, Carp, Largemouth Bass, and Sturgeon. All these can be obtained in Mountain Lake. However, Carp also has a chance of appearing in the Mutant Bug Lair, Secret Woods, and The Sewers. While the Largemouth Bass can also be caught in the Wilderness Farm.
Finishing this will give you a Dressed Spinner.
Ocean Bundle
To complete this bundle, you will need to get Red Snapper, Sardine, Tilapia, and Tuna. As implied to its name, you can get each from the ocean. However, there are still some locations that need to be noted for some fish.
- Tilapia – can also be found on Ginger Island West (freshwater), and North
- Tuna – can also be found on Ginger Island West (Ocean), South, and Southeast. Plus, the Pirate Cove.
You can get a higher chance of getting these fish if you use an iridium rod with bait on it. Eventually, you can get five Warp Totems: Beach.
Night Fishing Bundle
If you are into fishing, you might be familiar with night fish. These are the types that are most active and present during nighttime. Since this is not usual, especially for new players, you will only be needing three types.
These fish types are Bream, Eel, and Walleye. Catching these will have you needed to take some tours since they are located in different locations.
- Bream – Cindersap Forest, Pelican Town
- Eel – Ocean
- Walleye – Cindersap Forest Pond, Pelican Town River, Mountain Lake
After completing this bundle, you will get 1 Small Glowing Ring.
Crab Pot Bundle
Placing crab pots is one of the best ways to passively earn money in Stardew Valley. You can put these crab pots on any body of water and just leave baits in there. However, here are the most recommended fish types to get and where to get them.
- From the ocean – Clam, Cockle, Crab, Lobster, Mussel, Oyster, Shrimp
- From the freshwater – crayfish, Periwinkle, Snail
Finishing this will get you three Crab Pots.
Specialty Bundle
The specialty bundle is meant for rare types of fish that you can find. It is true that these rare types are hard to find and hard to let go of as well. But for the sake of completing this bundle, you have to sacrifice some of your rare finds.
The fish type requirements for this bundle are Ghostfish, Pufferfish, Sandfish, and Woodskip. This is another set of fish that needs a little traveling to collect them. But here’s the catch, you can catch all of these in their locations regardless of the season.
- Ghostfish – The Mines
- Pufferfish – Ocean, Ginger Island West (Ocean), South, Southeast, and Pirate Cove
- Sandfish – Calico Desert Pond
- Woodskip – Secret Woods Pond
Finishing this bundle will give you five Dish O’ The Sea.
If you haven’t known it yet, Junimos are involved in your journey with the Community Center. So, upon completing the whole fishing bundle in Stardew Valley, the Junimos will remove the Glittering Boulder beside The Mine’s entrance.
