This is a special location that is unlocked once you complete the Vault bundle in the community center. There is a small oasis that you can fish in outside of The Desert Mines. You can catch Sandish and Scorpion Carp.

 

9. The Secret Woods

The Secret Woods becomes available after upgrading your axe to iron quality. This will allow you to chop up the stump blocking the entrance. The pond is located south of the statute of Master Cannoli, at the left end of the woods. In the pond in the Secret Woods, you can fish for Woodskips, Catfish and Carp.  

8.  The Mines

 This is a convenient spot if you are waiting for shops to open or the Night Market. In the river, you can catch breams, smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, salmon, walleye, perch, catfish and sunfish.

6. The lake when it is raining

You can acquire Walleye from the lake when it is raining, and this fish is needed to complete the Lake Fish bundle for the Community center. Rain is also prime weather to fish, as the fish will bite faster than on a non-rainy day and the quality will be higher.

5. The ocean at night
