There are a lot of purposes for Sturgeon in Stardew Valley; you can use Sturgeon to create Caviar, or you can sell it to make some money. It can also be used in two different Fishing Bundles, alongside other fish like the Catfish. You can even give this fish as a gift to villagers, as some of them like it. No matter why you need or want to get your hands on a Sturgeon, it's more than possible if you know when and where to look for the aquatic creature.
In this guide, we'll walk you through how to catch a Sturgeon in Stardew Valley so you can finally get one of these rare fish.
How To Catch Sturgeon In Stardew Valley
Sturgeon can be found in the mountain lake during the summer or winter seasons from the hours of 6 am to 7 pm. Sturgeon have quite a low catch rate, so you might need to fish for a while if you want to ensure that you get one - but if you're in the right place at the right time, you'll no doubt get one eventually.
If it isn't summer or winter, you can try using Magic Bait to catch a Sturgeon. Magic Bait allows you to catch any fish regardless of the weather, season, or time. However, this also isn't a guaranteed way to catch one, since there are lots of different types of fish you can get on your line this way. It's also quite expensive - so you might just be better off waiting until the hottest or coldest seasons of the year roll around.
To actually catch a Sturgeon, you'll need to rely on the help of either a Fiberglass or Iridium Rod. These types of rods are quite expensive, but it's challenging to catch rare fish like the Sturgeon without them. In fact, you'll also want to add tackle to your line if you want the highest chance of reeling in your fish. This type of fish can easily wiggle away, so try attaching the Trap Bobber tackle for a little extra reassurance.
That's how you catch a Sturgeon in Stardew Valley. This fish is quite rare, only being found in the mountain lake during two seasons of the year and offering only a very low spawn rate - but if you're determined and follow this guide, you'll certainly be able to catch the Sturgeon to complete your Bundles pretty quickly.
