In this guide, you will learn where to find a Catfish while playing Stardew Valley.

There are different seasons in Stardew Valley and some activities can be done based on the season that’s going on. However, fishing is not limited to seasons. Along with the season, players will also have to consider the weather. Certain fishes can only be found under certain weather conditions in the right season.

Where to Find and Catch Catfish in Stardew Valley

You can catch Catfish by fishing in the River in Pelican Town, the Riverlands Farm, or the Hill-Top Farm in Spring and Fall. You can also catch Catfish by fishing in the Secret Woods and Witch’s Swamp in Summer. However, along with the season, players will only be able to get the Catfish during Rainy days.

Catching Catfish requires the correct bait and an Iridium Fishing Rod.

While Catfish is an above-average difficulty-rating fish, if you level up your fishing skills, catching it will be easier. There are a few recipes that can use Catfish and they can be quite helpful. However, one of the most important uses is to make a Quality Fertilizer. Players will then be able to grow better crops since the soil quality will be improved. However, players will need to level up their Farming Skills as well.
