Stardew Valley Treasure Chest contents explained

Treasure Chests in Stardew Valley explained

Sometime, when you reel in a fish, you might also find a treasure chest alongside your catch.

If you want this treasure, you need to make sure it's within the boundaries of the 'Fishing Bar,' which will make a small, separate, progress bar appear above the chest.

Once this progress bar is completed, the treasure chest will vanish from the screen, allowing you to focus all your attention on the fish and you must catch this fish.

If the fish does manage to escape, then you'll also lose the treasure chest.

You can increase your chances of finding treasure chests by attaching the Treasure Hunter tackle to your rod or by having the Pirate profession.

One of the main goals in Stardew Valley is to complete the Community Center bundles or, if you’re corporate minded, you can buy a JojaMart Membership.
