How to catch the Hermit Crab

The Hermit Crab is out at any hour and in any weather, so it can bite on any cast.

It's a level 1 catch (easy) with the Armored fighting style: green barely scratches it; hit the gold weak spot.

Roughly 1 in 47 fish that spawn in the pond is a Hermit Crab. Worms make fish bite sooner, and rarer fish go for them, so bring some for the hard ones.

Every catch also rolls a random name with a prefix and a suffix, and a rarity tier from Common up to Super Duper Mega Rare, so no two catches are quite the same.
