•Placing Crab Pots
Crab pots need bait and are placed on water tiles (ocean, river, lakes). Collect them each day. Loot includes fish, trash, and occasionally rare catches needed for villager quests (e.g., Sea Cucumber for Willy).
•Recycling the Trash
Many crab-pot catches are trash. A Recycling Machine converts trash into useful items (cloth, refined quartz, coal, etc.), turning a nuisance into steady materials.
✓Checklist
- Buy a crab pot from Willy
- Bait it and place it on a water tile
- Collect every day
