Butterfly fish
The butterfly fish is a fish you catch in the sea. Look for a small shadow. In the northern hemisphere look for it in Apr – Sep, at any time of day. Nook's Cranny pays 1,000 Bells, C.J. pays 1,500 Bells.
A small sea shadow you can hook at any hour while it is in season. It sells for 1,000 Bells, a decent return for such an easy, common catch.
