Many fans of Stardew Valley enjoy the game for its simple yet enjoyable farming, fishing, and more. This means collecting all the different types of crops and fish is a priority for many players who are looking to complete their whole collection in the game.
Some fish, however, cannot be found in just any spot or at any time during the year. Each fish has different requirements that need to be met in order to find them, and some can take a lot of time and effort before you reel them in. Chubs are one of the more common fish in the game, but you'll need to follow a few guidelines to be able to catch one.
Stardew Valley: How to Get Every Food Recipe
One challenge in Stardew Valley is to cook every food recipe in the game. Here's where to find them all.
Where to Find Chubs in Stardew Valley
Chub are not a particularly uncommon fish, nor are they that difficult to catch. However, you cannot find one just by going to any river or beach. Instead, you will need to visit one of these two locations:
- Mountain Lake
- Cindersap Forest River
The Mountain Lake will be in the northeast region of Pelican Town, directly to the right of the Carpenter's Shop. It will be a large, diamond-shaped lake that has small bridges crossing through it. If you fish here during any season, at any time of the day, you're bound to pick up a Chub at some point. You won't need to use bait, but you can if you prefer. However, bait will often lure in higher-level fish, whereas Chubs are more common.
As for the Cindersap Forest River, you can find it in the southwest portion of Pelican Town, just right of the Wizard's Tower. There will be a river running through the forest, which you can fish in to get a Chub. You can use the above images as a reference to its location.

How to Use Chubs in Stardew Valley
Like most fish in Stardew Valley, Chubs are predominantly used for selling. It sells for a base price of 50 g, all the way up to 100 g. However, if you have the Angler Level 10 for Fishing, it can go for up to 150 g. As for what else you can use it for, this includes:
- Field Research Bundle
- Maki Roll
- Quality Fertilizer
- Sashimi
Since Chubs are pretty common, it's a good option to use these fish in some of your recipes, as well as save some for the Field Research Bundle to get a Recycling Machine in return. If you need to make a bit of cash, though, it's also a good idea to sell it.
