In Disney Dreamlight Valley, players have access to multiple Royal Tools, each designed for specific tasks essential for daily activities within the game. The Royal Fishing Pole is utilized for fishing across the various bodies of water found in the Valley’s biomes. The base game’s region, known as the Valley, is divided into eight distinct biomes, offering diverse fishing opportunities in ponds, rivers, and even ocean fishing along the expansive coastline of Dazzle Beach.
With the addition of Disney Dreamlight Valley’s optional paid DLC expansion, A Rift in Time, players gain access to Eternity Isle, a new area comprising four large biomes. These biomes are further divided into separate areas, each offering an assortment of wild-grown ingredients, minerals, and a new array of fish to catch.
Disney Dreamlight Valley: All Cooking Recipes
With the help of this guide, players can learn the recipes to cook every meal in Disney Dreamlight Valley and the A Rift in Time expansion.
Each fish, sea creature, or other fishable catch in Disney Dreamlight Valley can be caught in specific biomes, with varying levels of rarity denoted by the color of its fishing pool, when applicable. The list below provides detailed information about all available fish, seafood, sea creatures, and crafting materials obtained via Fishing in Disney Dreamlight Valley, including how and where players can catch them.
What Ingredients & Materials Are Obtained By Fishing?
In Disney Dreamlight Valley, fishing can yield three main types of catches: fish, seafood, or crafting materials. Fish and seafood are primarily used in cooking recipes, which can be prepared to restore energy or served to villagers to increase their friendship with the player. Crafting materials are used at Crafting Stations to create furniture, consumables, and even other materials.
There is a fourth type of catch that players can obtain by fishing in the sands of Eternity Isle’s Glittering Dunes biome that are considered
Dairy & Oil ingredients
when cooking. This small selection of catches includes just two creatures: Sand Worm and Scorpion.
Catching Fish & Seafood With Fishing
There are a total of 40 different species of fish, seafood, or creature ingredients that players can catch using their Royal Fishing Rod. The Valley is home to 25 unique species, and the expansion’s Eternity Isle region features 15 exclusive species of its own on the list. A small selection of Valley fish can be caught in Eternity Isle, but no Eternity Isle fish can be caught in the Valley.
Catching Crafting Materials With Fishing
There is also a small assortment of materials that players can obtain via fishing that are exclusively for use in crafting items, unlike fish, which are primarily for preparing meals in Disney Dreamlight Valley. This short list features just 5 unique materials: Seaweed, Red Algae, Bones, Plastic Scrap, and Scales. Seaweed and Red Algae can be obtained in every biome in both the Valley and Eternity Isle, but Bones, Plastic Scrap, and Scales are exclusive to Eternity Isle regions.
Seaweed is the only catch that is used both in cooking and crafting. For the sake of cooking, it is considered a Vegetable, while in crafting it can be found in the Refined Materials category.
All Fish & Ingredients and Where to Catch Them
Below is a full list of all fish, seafood, and creatures players can catch via Fishing. It is important to note that three of Dreamlight Valley‘s fish have additional criteria which must be met before players can find and catch these fish:
- Fugu – Can be caught only when it is raining.
- Here and There Fish – Can only be caught only in the hours between 6am to 10am and 6pm to 10pm. They will only be available during and after completing Nala’s Friendship Quest “Here and There and Back Again.”
- Kingfish – Can be caught only in the hours between 6pm to 5am.
Additionally, some fish available exclusively in A Rift in Time‘s Eternity Isle biomes require the player to unlock certain sub-areas of each of the expansion’s biomes before they can be accessed.

All Seasonal Fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley
In Dreamlight Valley, there are five seasonal variants of some year-round fish, which can only be caught in special pools that appear during the holiday season, typically from mid to late December. Each of these fish can be caught just once, as their pools do not reappear in future seasons. These fish serve no purpose other than to fulfill an associated seasonal Dreamlight Duty.
