How to Attach Bait to a Fishing Rod in Stardew Valley on Switch
Just a heads up, you can't bait the basic Bamboo Rod. Upgrade to a Fiberglass Rod or the Iridium Rod, then open your inventory, grab the bait with 'A', and attach it to the rod with 'Y'. Happy fishing!

Easy peasy! First, make sure you've got a fishing rod that can actually hold bait (the Bamboo Rod won't cut it). If you have the Fiberglass Rod or better, open your inventory, select the bait, then press 'A' to pick it up. Hover over the rod and hit 'Y' to attach the bait. Voila, you're all set to catch some fish!
Guys, remember, you need the right rod. Bamboo Rod = no bait for you. Only Fiberglass and Iridium Rods can be baited. It's a simple 'A', then 'Y' move. Don't overthink it.
Honestly, fishing's easier without bait. Just grab any rod and go for it. Who needs bait anyway? ?
