Here&#8217;s everything you need to know about <strong>Stardew Valley&#8217;s Trout Derby<\/strong>, including when and where it is, how to win, and what rewards you can earn.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1hpk3l7go3\">Where &amp; When Is The Trout Derby In Stardew Valley?<\/h2>\n<p>The Trout Derby takes place in <strong>Cindersap Forest<\/strong> on the <strong>20th <\/strong>and <strong>21st <\/strong>of summer. To find the festival, head out to the river near Marnie&#8217;s Ranch. Unlike most of the game&#8217;s festivals, time passes during this festival, and players don&#8217;t need to complete any prerequisites to start it or get to it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Notably, you can also set up camp in the Forest during this festival, letting you spend the night nearby so you can continue fishing in the morning. This makes it extremely convenient to participate in the Trout Derby.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/Du0d7lWeZg2qZcEsSfrheuNwJ4b6tH_CS0g0m14krI8\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMy82NWZjYTRkZDlhNWJmLXRyb3V0IGRlcmJ5IDIyLnBuZw\" alt=\"trout derby\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">The Trout Derby lets players catch Rainbow Trout in return for rewards.

Catching a Rainbow Trout grants the player a 33% chance to get a<strong> Golden Tag.<\/strong> These Golden Tags can be exchanged for prizes at the booth.<\/p>\n<p>Before the festival begins, it&#8217;s a good idea to create a Bait Maker and use it to catch the Rainbow Trout during it. This can significantly increase your chances of getting more Rainbow Trout, and thus, more Golden Tags.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1hpk3l7go5\">Trout Derby Prizes<\/h2>\n<p>Exchanging Golden Tags a the booth will net you a variety of prizes. As your first prize, you&#8217;ll get <strong>1 Tent Kit<\/strong>.
