Fish is one of the few ingredients Disney Dreamlight Valley Players can easily miss.

Fugu Catching Guide
fugu is a rare poisonous fish used in Japanese cuisine – and it is one of the most difficult to obtain ingredients in the valley. To start collecting fugu you need these fishing tips. There’s a reason you’ve never found one during normal fishing sessions.
- How to catch fugu fish: Fugu fish will SPAWN ONLY DURING GAME THUNDERSTORMS in Dazzle Beach.
- If you experience a thunderstorm in-game, travel to it Dazzle Beach and start fishing.
Fugu only spawn in Dazzle Beach and only during thunderstorms. There is no way to predict when and for how long a thunderstorm will occur in the game. You may need Fugu for future missions, so I recommend fishing them when a storm hits. Do it right away and bring something to eat to keep your energy up. You can also increase your chances of finding Fugu.
- This will improve your chances of catching Fugu: Bring in fishing companion that you have leveled up in the skill. The highest level fishing companion greatly increases your chances of finding a fugu fish – and you’ll catch multiple fish per turn.
Fugu only occurs in two recipes.
- Fugu Recipes:
- Fugu Sushi: Fugu + Rice + Seaweed
- Steamed Fugu: Fugu + ginger + garlic
And that’s all you need to know about the rarest fish! The only other extremely rare fish in the game is the walleye – which can only be obtained as a random gift from Moiana. At least that’s one not to work for. You just have to hope for the best. The fugu can be missed if you don’t hit the fishing spots in Dazzle Beach when a thunderstorm is brewing.
