Next stop is Willy's to sell all fish from Days 2-4, then Pierre's for the Big Backpack and about 50 Kale. At this point I'm at least Fishing Level 5, if not 6.ĭay 5: Water crops, keeping the Parsnips for food. Check for forage at Cindersap and the CC, including Spring Onions. This Chest also serves as a dumping spot for any Chub that I get at the Mountain Lake, where I'll fish until 7pm.

Next, I'll bring the Chest with me to put in the Mines. Typically though, I reach Fishing Level 4.ĭay 4: Don't water crops, craft a Chest, check the notice board, swing by Willy's for some more Bait paid for by any Horseradishes and Daffodils. Return home, chop down enough for a Chest, eating Chub if necessary. Then spend the rest of the day at Cindersap River, ending at about 10pm, slightly later if I'm very close to Fishing Level 5. Head to Willy's, buy the Fiberglass Rod, if I forgot that I need Bait as well, fish at the Beach until 40-odd Bait is reached. Swing by the Museum if I've found an artifact. Generally this will get me up to Fishing Level 3, but I won't have enough cash for the Fiberglass Rod.ĭay 3: Check the noticeboard, otherwise it's straight to fishing below Jodi's house until I what looks like enough money for the Fiberglass Rod. Then spend the rest of the day foraging and clearing the farm until I've run out of energy.ĭay 2: Water crops, check the noticeboard, fish at the Beach from 8am-12am, leaving enough time to do a couple things after. I haven't started a new save for a while, but this is the general gist:ĭay 1: Plant 13 Parsnips, 1 Green Bean and 1 Cauliflower. Getting too rich too quick sort of ruins the fun for me. I probably wouldn't enjoy putting off everything until I am filthy rich at the end of Summer. I am not sure that I would replicate my tests of guide in a real play-through, because I might chop more trees and rocks and forage more. I probably can catch only 25% at level 3 and around 50% at level 5.Level 4+ (in the past I couldn't reliably get to Fisher profession) or 6 (recently following and testing guide).One thing guide does is help me afford it sooner. In all cases, I can get the Fiberglass Rod if I can afford it.Level 3+ (in the past) or 5 (recently following and testing guide).In the very best cases, I can get the Fiberglass Rod before the Fish Shop closes, hopefully with some bait on it.

Level 2 (in the past) or 3 (recently following and testing guide).How does your success at that early Fishing usually look? Here's mine:

It's common to limit crops and focus on fishing Spring 2, 3 (rain), and 4.
