Bait is quite useful and a necessary item needed to catch Fish in Stardew Valley. Since there are different types of bait, players would want to get hold of the best moving forward. The Challenge Bait in Stardew Valley 1.6 is a useful bait that you can craft and it will help you catch three fish at a time. That’s quite useful instead of waiting a long time to catch multiple fish.
The Challenge Bait is quite useful, almost like the Wild Bait and fortunately, players can craft this bait easily. However, normal Rods won’t work with this one and you will have to use either Fiberglass Rod, Iridium Rod, or Advanced Iridium Rod. While there is a chance that you can get the bait from Golden Fishing Treasure Chests, it’s more feasible and easy to craft.
How to Craft Challenge Bait in Stardew Valley 1.6
Players will need the Fishing Mastery totem and then they will have the recipe to craft Challenge Bait in Stardew Valley 1.6. Once they have the recipe, they will need to get the following items to get the bait.
- x5 Bone Fragment

How to Use Challenge Bait in SDV?
Each craft will produce 5 Bait for players to use. According to the game’s description, a “perfect” catch yields triple the fish. However, each time a fish escapes the “fishing bar”, the catch is reduced. The Challenge Bait reduces the delay before a nibble on a fishing rod by 62.5%. So once you have the bait, attach it to the Rod and then you can head for fishing.
