Adding basic info on trash spawn rates at the various locations
Line 3: Line 3:  
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]] (except on a [[Farm Maps|Riverland Farm]]).

The likelihood of catching trash at most locations will also decrease substantially as [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|fishing skill]] increases.

The likelihood of catching trash at most locations will also decrease substantially as [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|fishing skill]] increases. At a skill level of 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" />
    
Catching Trash with a [[Tools#Fishing Poles|fishing pole]] grants 3 [[Fishing]] XP.  Harvesting Trash from a [[Crab Pot]] grants 5 Fishing XP. In the fishing minigame at the [[Stardew Valley Fair]], trash items are worth a single point.

==Locations==
 +
At the [[Mountain|Mountain Lake]], trash is most likely to be caught after 7pm during [[spring]], [[summer]], and [[Weather|non-raining]] [[fall]] evenings. With a [[Fishing#fishing skill|fishing skill]] level of 0, hit rates for trash during these times will be around 14%. The least trash will be caught during [[winter]] and summer days before 7pm, with a hit rate of 2-5%. Spring and fall days fall in the middle, with a trash hit rate of 5-8%.<ref name="spawnrate" />

 +
The pond in the [[Secret Woods]] usually produces trash for 44% of casts at skill level 0, though this drops to 26% on rainy days before midnight due to the presence of [[catfish]]. At skill level 10, the trash hit rate is usually 21%, dropping to 8% on rainy days.<ref name="spawnrate" />
