(Picture: ConcernedApe)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gut5smnu2\">How To Catch Catfish In Stardew Valley<\/h2>\n<p>To catch a Catfish in Stardew Valley, you&#8217;ll need to wait until it rains during either <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/stardew-valley\/check-date-season\">spring or fall.<\/a> Next, go to the Rivers and Secret Woods pond; you&#8217;ll need to be there between 6am and midnight for the Catfish to be there.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you&#8217;ll just need to fish as normal and hope that you&#8217;ll get a Catfish on your line! It may take a few tries, but this is the only time and place where you can catch one of these fish for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>If you have no luck catching a Catfish or you just don&#8217;t want to go through the trouble of fishing for one, you can buy one from the Traveling Cart or find one in Garbage Cans if you&#8217;re really lucky. Overall, though, Catfish really isn&#8217;t that hard to catch, so if you head out during the right time you should be able to get one on your hook.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gut5smnu3\">What To Do With Catfish In Stardew Valley<\/h2>\n<p>Once you have your Catfish, you can either sell it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/stardew-valley\/how-to-cook\">cook it,<\/a> or use it to help you complete your River Fish Bundle. Catfish sell for different prices depending on their quality. Here&#8217;s a look at how much you&#8217;ll get for selling each type of Catfish:<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 99.3442%; height: 133px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"width: 51.8349%; text-align: center;\">Catfish Quality<\/th>\n<th style=\"width: 48.1285%; text-align: center;\">Price<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 51.8349%; text-align: center;\">Normal<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 48.1285%; text-align: center;\">200g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 51.8349%; text-align: center;\">Silver<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 48.1285%; text-align: center;\">250g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 51.8349%; text-align: center;\">Gold<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 48.1285%; text-align: center;\">300g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 51.8349%; text-align: center;\">Iridium<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 48.1285%; text-align: center;\">400g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>And that&#8217;s how you catch a Catfish in Stardew Valley. While these little fish can be extremely useful to you &#8211; both providing you with a profit and allowing you to complete bundles &#8211; it isn&#8217;t particularly hard one to catch, so you should be able to stock up on them if you try. Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are lots of different types of fish in Stardew Valley, and the Catfish is one of the ones you&#8217;ll need to catch in order&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12834,"featured_media":46006,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-stardew-valley","genre-action-adventure","content_type-guide-tutorial"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How To Catch Catfish In Stardew Valley - GINX TV<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Wondering how to catch Catfish in Stardew Valley?
