Entity facts retain the guide’s Patch 1.0.10 snapshot (2026-08-28); the newly written notes are not a current-build playtest. Fixed values are raw bases, not guaranteed sale offers. Patch 1.1.3 adds bait display after a first kill in Fishipedia; use your current game to check a returning catch.
Complete the Hot Dog pair
Lobster and Rock Crab use the same recorded bait: a Hot Dog on the Crab Fishing Rod at the Lighthouse. If you already found the two default-pool shell creatures, this is the next setup to check for ordinary collection gaps.
There is no separate Lobster-only lure in this dataset. A run that also produces Rock Crab is still using the listed pairing.
Compare the opening shell values
The recorded base values are Brown Crab 3, Shrimp 5, Rock Crab 7 and Lobster 9 coins. Lobster is the largest fixed base among those four ordinary shell entries.
That ordering does not include Spider Crab and does not establish profit per cast. Keep the cost of bait and your actual sale modifiers separate from the 9-coin reference.
