− | '''Trash''' is a [[:Category:Trash|category]] of items in [[Stardew Valley]]. With the exception of the [[Rotten Plant]], these items have a chance to be collected when [[fishing]], from [[Crab Pot]]s, or from [[Garbage Can]]s. Trash is the less favorable alternative when fishing, as [[fish]] are worth more to sell and have far more uses. However, trash items (other than [[Joja Cola]] and the [[Rotten Plant]]) can be used in a [[Recycling Machine]] to create more useful materials. | + | '''Trash''' is a [[:Category:Trash|category]] of items in [[Stardew Valley]].

− | A random trash item is caught while [[fishing]], after failing skill checks to get a bite ("hit") from every type of [[fish]] and [[Fish#Other Catchables|other catchables]] currently available at a location. More types of fish currently available at a location generally results in a greater chance of a bite, which results in a decreased chance of catching trash. Trash is therefore much more common when fishing in locations with few types of fish and rarer fish, such as [[The Mines]], and trash is the only possible result when fishing in the [[Farm Pond]] on a [[Farm Maps|Standard Farm]]. | + | A random trash item is caught while [[fishing]], after failing skill checks to get a bite ("hit") from every type of [[fish]] and [[Fish#Other Catchables|other catchables]] currently available at a location.

| The likelihood of catching trash at most locations will also decrease substantially as [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|fishing skill]] increases. At fishing level 10, trash frequency can decrease by over 20 percentage points if few types of fish are present, and trash frequency approaches 0% when at least 5 types of fish (including algae and seaweed) are present.<ref name="spawnrate" /> | | The likelihood of catching trash at most locations will also decrease substantially as [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|fishing skill]] increases.
