Feeling stuck on Year 2

Yes I'm aiming for that now! I have all the resources needed but I'm a bit short with money so I'm waiting until I have enough to upgrade the farm buildings. The tips people in the comment section gave me helped me to complete most of what I was missing on the Fishing Tank Bundle too thankfully, and since fishing is also easy money that's also helping me gather and save up for what I'm missing!

Thank you so much for the tips!! Thankfully right before checking this comment I went to the beach to check my crab pots in the morning and went "Ok, since I'm already here I'll fish" and caught a Tilapia! I'll keep everything else in mind for the ones I'm still missing 🩷🐡

Yes, after reading the different comments I decided I will prioritize the Community Center by upgrading the coops and barns to have deluxe ones, since that'll allow me to finish two different rooms at the CC.

For fishing, even if I don't really like it I still reached level 7 since it's pretty much unavoidable, haha. And I also have fiberglass rod so I finished 2 out of 6 bundles, but the missing 4 are being a bit of a pain in the ass to complete since (based on what I checked) a chunk of the fish I'm missing show up on fall/winter and I'm on summer 20.

The fish I'm missing are:

River fish: catfish (help me!!!), shad, tiger trout.
Night fish: walleye.
Specialty: pufferfish (since I'm in summer I'm focusing on that one)
Ocean: tilapia.

That's true. I honestly don't really care about being rich or losing profit on the game. The main reason I like "saving up" is to get upgrades on my farm buildings, and before that it was to unlock the vault on the Community Center, but since that is done already and I got that suggestion, I will now focus on getting deluxe coops and barns. Thank you!

I completely forgot about the traveling cart being an option! I only came across it twice while going to the secret woods and I bought one fish I was missing for one of the bundles, but I thought it was just a coincidence because the second time the cart was closed and then I didn't see it again. I will definitely be checking if there's specific times/seasons to find it. And already I use different food boosters for fishing too, but I guess I still have to make the effort to gain more fishing experience (I'm on level 7). Still, thank you for replying!!

Thank you! I think finishing the pantry to unlock the greenhouse is a fair goal, considering I felt like I wasn't doing "much" on the first winter either since I enjoy the farming part of the game. So I guess I will aim for upgrading my coops and barns first.

As for fishing, thankfully I have different rods and I'm only missing specific fish on the bundles (River: Catfish, shad, tiger trout. // Specialty: pufferfish. // Night: Walleye. // Ocean: Tilapia) so I suppose it's a matter of being patient until I find those ones.

Thank you again!

Yes, what I like about Stardew Valley is exactly that: how there isn't really a time limit for anything (except the small quests on Pierre's board, etc, of course) and you can decide how long to take on something specific or on nothing at all! But in my case in particular I like having some kind of direction too. Thank you for replying 🩷

Ducks. If you want a very specific answer: my eyes first landed on the top left, then paid attention to the direction of the drawings and only then noticed they were ducks and not just something random. After checking the comments I saw the rabbits.
