How to get Sturgeon in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Players can capture Sturgeon New horizons between September and March, so it is available for seven months of the year. It is active at all hours of the day, but the reason it is so hard to catch is because it is a rare spawn, and it only appears at the mouth of the river.
- How to find Sturgeon in Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Search the mouth of the river for a size 6 shad in September, October, November, December, January, February or March.
Sturgeon is a huge fish, so players trying to catch it should only cast their line when they see one size 6 shademeaning the largest fish shadow in the game. If they see a shad that is big but not the biggest, it will most likely be a Black Bass, which can also spawn in this area of the river.
How to farm sturgeons in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
There is a way for players to farm Sturgeon by scaring away fish across all bodies of water, forcing a spawn in the mouth of the river.
They could do this on their island, but the surrounding ocean is so vast, and they will certainly have several other places for sturgeon and other fish to spawn, that it would not be as effective.
The best way to do this is to buy a Nook Miles ticket and visit a mysterious island. There are several islands with a river, and because they are so small, players can easily run around the island within seconds, making this a much more sustainable way to farm Sturgeon. Once players have landed on the island, they must check to see if it has a river. If not, they must go back to their mainland and try again. If it does, that will be the right place for this trick.
To farm the Sturgeon, players must use the rod to jump across the river or sprint near the river bank and scare all the fish that spawn on it. Fish will continue to spawn when certain areas of the river disappear from the screen. After scaring all the fish, they must check the mouth of the river to see what has been spawning there.
It's possible that it won't be the fish they're looking for, but since this process only takes a few seconds, all they need to do is spook the fish that appeared at the mouth of the river, if it's not sturgeon size, and then go another round.
Eventually, a Sturgeon will spawn, allowing players to craft an easy 10,000 Bells. They repeat this process and catch dozens of sturgeon before going back home, and whether they sell it to CJ or Timmy and Tommy, they will make thousands of Bells.
