Where is the Fishing Rod in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life?

As you explore Forgotten Valley for the first time, you will notice that there are numerous bodies of water just waiting for you to fish in them. Rivers, ponds, and even the ocean are just beckoning you to see what goodies they have lurking beneath the surface.

Instead, you will need to wait until the traveling merchant, Van, comes to Forgotten Valley. He comes to sell his wares twice a season, on the 3rd and the 8th. When this date comes, make sure you head into town between the hours of 12:00PM to 6:00PM to catch him. From there, simply interact with him, see what he has for sale, and buy the fishing rod of your dreams.
