Mitten crab

The mitten crab is a fish you catch in rivers. Look for a small shadow. In the northern hemisphere look for it in Sep – Nov, from 4 PM – 9 AM. It can only appear after you have caught 20 fish. Nook's Cranny pays 2,000 Bells, C.J. pays 3,000 Bells.

A small river shadow from late afternoon until morning, after 20 catches. Its run is short, so fish rivers in the evening while it lasts; it sells for 2,000 Bells.
