How To Get Legendary Roe in Stardew Valley

Unlike regular fish that can be directly placed in ponds to produce roe quickly, Legendary Roe requires a Legendary Fish to be placed in a pond, where it will slowly produce roe over time.

First off, you’ll need to catch one of the five Legendary Fish in the game. Each legendary fish has its own unique requirements and locations. Once caught, place it in a pond, and it will gradually produce roe. Remember, only one legendary fish can reside in a pond at a time, and they do not naturally reproduce like other fish.

Uses of Legendary Roe in Stardew Valley

Like regular roe, you can place Legendary Roe in a Preserves Jar to make Aged Roe, which is a higher-value Artisan Good. For instance, Glacierfish

produces four units of Roe at a time, each of which sells for 530 gold. Selling all four units at once will net you 2,120 gold in one go, which is a pretty decent amount.

However, placing Glacierfish Roe in a Preserves Jar for three days turns them into Aged Roe, each of which sells for 1,484 gold. Selling all four Aged Roe units would result in 5,936 gold in Stardew Valley. As such, selling Aged Legendary Roe provides a much higher profit compared to selling fresh roe.

All Legendary Fish in Stardew Valley

Stardew Valley features five distinct fish classified as ‘Legendary”. These are Angler, Crimsonfish, Glacierfish, Legend, and Mutant Carp. These rare creatures are found in specific locations and are rather difficult to catch. During the fishing minigame, Legendary fish are uniquely identified by a crown icon.
