How to catch fish easier in Stardew Valley?
Fishing in Stardew Valley can be a bit tricky at first, but don't worry, it gets easier with a little practice and the right tools! First off, upgrading your fishing rod as soon as you can makes a huge difference. The Bamboo Rod's okay to start, but the Fiberglass Rod and eventually the Iridium Rod have better control and can use bait and tackle to make things much simpler. Speaking of bait, use it! It makes fish bite more quickly. Another tip is to fish in the right spot; each area and season has specific fish, so some spots give you an easier time than others depending on what you're after. Lastly, keep an eye on the TV in your farmhouse for the 'Fishing Report'. Days marked as good luck can actually make fishing a bit easier for you!

Just tap instead of holding the button down when you're trying to keep the fish in the green bar. Also, practice makes perfect!
Honestly, just invest in crab pots. Less hassle, and you still get fish (and trash, but hey, recycling!).
